Heal your trauma, keep your straw. Learn to set healthy boundaries and discontinue fawning behaviors. You are allowed to have needs and ask for what you need. You are allowed to take up space. YOU matter. Believe in yourself and your value. 💖💗💓

People pleasing is part of a Fawn response. It's an adaptive survival pattern that kept you alive but has become maladaptive. Learning to sit with discomfort is scary but oh so healing 🙏

Who else suffers from procrastination and constantly beats themselves up because they can't seem to get tasks or projects completed? There is nothing wrong with you......you have been surviving and your amazing nervous system has done exactly what it needed to do to keep you alive. 🙏 ❤

Depression is a symptom of a dysregulated nervous system. It's a survival response. The antidote is social connection which requires shifting the nervous system into a state of safety. The therapeutic modalities I am trained in are grounded in neuroscience and polyvagal theory informed. Safe and Sound protocol is an intervention I'm certified in that uses specially filtered music to shift the nervous system into a state of safety, improving our ability to social engage, optimizing our overall health.
