Why is it so hard to rest? 😔

Because your nervous system might not feel safe enough to slow down — unless someone is holding space for you.

🌀 Anxiety
🧠 Racing thoughts
📱 Constant stimulation
📋 Endless to-do list
💬 Other people’s nervous systems
…all keep you stuck in go-go-go-mode.

But rest isn’t something you have to earn.
It’s something your body already knows - you just might have forgotten or re-programmed your nervous system through years of urgency and hyper vigilance.

At my upcoming retreat, we’ll explore how to reconnect to the rhythm o rest — so rest becomes part of your everyday, not just something you squeeze in when you’re burnt out.

✨ Ready to relearn the rhythm of rest?
📍The Studio at North South Travel
📆 November 30th, 10am - 3pm

Hows your BQ? Having healthy boundaries is an essential part of wellness. It’s a complex topic that weaves its way into so many aspects of our lives, often invisibly. Boundaries have direct impact on our:

✅ Relationships
✅ Sense of safety and agency
✅ Energetic field
✅ Emotional wellness
✅ Sense of self worth
✅ Authentic expression

People often think of boundaries as walls or protections but it’s more than that. Boundaries are also about being able to receive, to connect and have real intimacy. Sometimes we need boundaries for the outer world, sometimes we need them for our inner world. For example, I’ve been learning to set boundaries with my inner critic and no longer believe everything she says. ☺️

Boundaries are a lifelong learning. It’s a rich and nuanced world!

Just a few more days before we gather to explore and learn practical tools that help identify and set boundaries to help you free yourself from the weight of what holds you back!

There are a few spots left to join us at Expand: Boundaries to Free Your Authentic Self in Vancouver - 🌟🌟🌟THIS SUNDAY, October 19. 🌟🌟🌟

If you’re ready to truly show up in your life and relationships, come join us! 💗

Boundaries are about protecting your peace? ☮️ Sometimes. There’s so much more to this topic, and so many layers that make this topic a rich and lifelong learning- cultural influences, personal history, gender differences, nervous system and personality types, privilege … it’s a rich and powerful subject.

About 15 years ago, I’d say I had few boundaries in my personal relationships. As a compulsive people-pleaser, I over-functioned, over-explained myself and had no ability to hold a boundary if it upset someone else. 15 years later, I’m pretty clear with boundaries but still learning how to set them and catch myself in old habits. It’s a lifelong learning!

Wherever you are in your boundaries skill, next weekends workshop, Expand, you’ll have the opportunity to explore mindful enquiry, practice tools and explore your somatic experience of boundaries.

One week to go!!! 💗

This “sign” landed on my lawn this morning, courtesy of a local black bear. 🐻 For those of you who have always wanted to know if bears really do $h*t in the woods, now you know. Not always. Sometimes they hit up my yard, leaving my husband and I to a high-stakes game of rock-paper-scissors to decide who’s going to deal with it. 😅 How is this a sign for me? I’ve taken a long break from social media to regroup and work on some new projects. I’ve had a few internal nudges to start posting again but have been overthinking what to post. Any of you other solopreneurs out there feel me? 🤔🙇‍♀️😵‍💫 I saw the giant (I mean, this thing was weighty) p**p on our lawn and thought, “there’s the sign, time to start posting some $h*t again.” Do you believe in signs? 🪧
