I truly feel this way about all my clients! True privilege to bear witness to their growth. Many times growth is painful but I have a front row seat to what comes after the pain lifts and that is a pure honor to be a part of

New week. New month. New season. Let's talk about boundaries! ⁠
⁠
There are SO many reasons we—as women, especially—have trouble setting boundaries. We’ve been fed a myth of the "happy, capable multitasker." The myth of the woman juggling a million things—keeping all the balls in the air (our kids, jobs, relationships, etc). Most of us actually do manage to keep the balls in the air, but at our own expense—and all the while, feeling like we’re shortchanging everyone & everything.⁠
⁠
It’s taken me years to get really good at setting boundaries that allow me to stay balanced & focused on my priorities; that keep my energy centered & intact, instead of dispersed & spent. The art of setting these boundaries has opened new pathways of honest communication & empowerment in my life. By giving greater respect to my physical health, mental well-being, and time, I teach others to treat me with that same respect.⁠
⁠
Read my article & tune into my podcast, On Health, for episode #193: Why Creating & Setting Boundaries is Essential for Our Health (link in bio!). ⁠
⁠
I deep-dish about:⁠
⁠
👉🏻 What boundaries are & the types we overlook ⁠
👉🏻 Why we have trouble setting boundaries ⁠
👉🏻 How to know if you need them in your life ⁠
👉🏻 Exercises to help you discover your highest priorities & how to stick to them ⁠
👉🏻 Boundary-setting practices to get you started⁠
👉🏻 So much more, including my weird style tip that relates to healthy boundaries!⁠
⁠
Do you need to set better boundaries? What's letting you know that? Are you uncomfortable setting boundaries? Which ones and why? If you're getting good at it, how do you set boundaries in your life?⁠

🌟 Happy ! 🌟

🧠 Our brains are exquisite neural networks, wired to process emotions, thoughts, and experiences. When we practice gratitude regularly, we're not just spreading positivity, but actually sculpting our brain's structure.

Research suggests that gratitude stimulates the production of dopamine and serotonin – the brain's "feel-good" neurotransmitters. These compounds not only uplift our mood but also enhance our overall well-being. It's like a natural boost for our brain's happiness centers! 😄🌈☀️

By learning to focus on the good – “good” in the practical sense of that which brings more happiness to oneself and more helpfulness to others – we can bring balance to our natural inclination to tilt towards a negativity bias.

This is more than positive thinking. Taking in the good is a brain-science savvy and psychologically skillful way to improve how you feel, get things done, and treat others.

Here's to creating habits that help us focus our attention on the good 🙌🏼

Somatic Experiencing® resolves symptoms of stress, shock, and other traumas that accumulate in our bodies. When we are stuck in patterns of fight, flight, or freeze, SE helps us release and recover.

Underneath our anger is mostly lots of unmet needs and ongoing cycle of repressed emotions.

It wasn’t until I actually befriended my anger,
where I was able to see how much I was really holding onto.

Our anger is an indicator when our boundaries have been crossed and is a beautiful way we can get curious about meeting those unmet needs.

I believe my repressed anger was a big reason illness manifested in my body.

Meeting that anger with curiosity and compassion has helped me see that anger is an important emotion and that it’s safe to express in a healthy non reactive way.

It has taken some time to form this relationship with anger as all I knew as a child was that anger was fear based and a way to manipulate and control.

Now I know it’s safe to be with anger. It’s safe to express it. Just takes some time to build that relationship.
