Your nervous system isn’t asking you to do more.. it’s asking you to be more you.

The most regulated version of you isn’t one that’s perfect, productive, or always calm.. it’s the one that’s authentic, present, and honest with what you feel. So often, what we call stress or burnout is actually unfinished energy - loops that haven’t been closed - moments your system didn’t get to process, express, or complete….compromising the safety of feeling and expressing you.

This week on the podcast, I’m sharing 9 tips for authentic nervous system regulation.. ways to gently help your body close those loops and return to its natural state of safety and flow.

You’ll learn how to slow down and listen, create space to feel what’s rising, and reconnect with your body through breath, movement, and stillness. Because when you meet yourself honestly, stress begins to dissolve naturally.

Feeling overwhelmed or disconnected? Your nervous system isn’t asking you to do more.. it’s asking you to be more you. Sometimes the missing link isn’t another routine or mindset shift.. it’s about learning how to close the loops - those energetic, emotional, and mental cycles that keep us i...

Happy Scorpio Season, loves ☺️🖤

This girl is entering into my sun sign. ☀️ The time when the energy around us is calling for depth, honesty, and emotional rebirth. [ So me in all areas of life right 🤗 ] It’s a season of shedding old skins, getting intimate with our truth, and remembering that what feels heavy is often what’s ready to be seen.

You know the one thing that helps dissipate life’s stressors naturally?
👉 You being the most authentic, regulated version of you.

How ?
✨ Slow down enough to actually listen.
Find small pockets of silence - even minutes - to feel what’s coming up.
✨ Routinely ask, “What can I do to meet my needs in a nourishing way?” [ A bath, a walk, deep breaths, a good cry - whatever your body asks for, honor it. ] Or ask “What am I actually feeling in my body right now?” [ and return to tip one and just be in that ]
✨ Shut off your phone and tune back into your energy.
✨ Journal, talk, meditate, move, actually honor the time to feel through the emotions - anger, frustration, guilt - to process and discharge them out instead of holding them in.
✨ Practice breathwork. Box breathing or 4-7-8 breathing with a longer exhale.
✨ Sigh, stretch, shake, or place a hand on your heart and hum.
✨ End your day with gentle hug or a grounding body scan before bed.

Above all else.. trust.
Learn to trust yourself.
Learn to listen to yourself.
Learn what safety is within yourself.

Everything that’s been hidden or shoved under the rug will start to rise up for healing, and you of course always have a choice: work with it or resist it.

But I am here to tell you running only works for so long. Those shadows we keep avoiding will continue to come up until we give them the space to do so.

This season invites you to become the alchemist of your own evolution, stepping into your truth..

If your system is asking for gentleness… for someone to hold space while you untangle what’s been heavy..this is the work I do.

Root Cause Therapy and Energy Healing aren’t about fixing you. They’re about bringing safety back to your body, clarity back to your mind, and truth back to your energy.

When you’re ready, I’m here to walk with you. 🖤

That first slide stop you? Well I’m glad it did because this was something that took me years into not only my personal journey but in working with others to understand….and I’ll try to break it down in this short caption. Or else to get a full 20 minute rundown of understanding trauma as a spectrum, listen to this last weeks pod epi.

Ok here goes..
Trauma isn’t a disorder..it’s an adaptation. Our body and mind learn to survive the best way they can with what they have in the moment.

Where the uniqueness comes in is the fact we are humans and all live our own experiences. But our nervous systems respond in the same way..survival.

And if something triggers our nervous system as a threat to survival: an event, unprocessed emotion, being chased by a lion…it’s going to remember and put us into that same survival mode state every time we are slightly triggered in the same way.

When we understand this, things may begin to shift. Maybe we can begin meeting ourselves with compassion instead of shame. Because the habits, reactions, or emotions we so easily label as “bad” or “broken” are often signs of your nervous system’s wisdom.

Healing begins when we bring curiosity and compassion to those patterns and cycles. When we bring the felt sense into the equation.

In my practice, we work with both the root and the energy ..
▪️Root Cause Therapy helps you create safety, feel, and close old trauma or stress loops through a somatic and subconscious process.
▪️Reiki Energy Healing creates space for your body’s natural healing abilities to come back online, align, and raise your capacity for that deeper integration and somatic embodiment.

Together, these sessions bridge past, present, and future.. helping you return to safety, clarity, wholeness, and alignment.

So often we hear the word trauma and think it only applies to extreme situations… but what if we realize it’s something we all have?

Every experience that overwhelms your system - ‘big or small’ - can leave an imprint. Trauma isn’t something only a few people have… it’s part of being human.

And when we start seeing it this way, healing becomes less about fixing ourselves and more about understanding ourselves.

In this week’s episode, we explore what it truly means to understand trauma as a spectrum..and how both big and subtle experiences shape your nervous system, your reactions, and the way you move through life.

You’ll learn:
▪️Why trauma is part of the human condition
▪️The difference between ‘big T’ and ‘little t’ trauma, and why both matter
▪️How trauma adaptations shape our behaviors
▪️The role of the nervous system in trauma responses
▪️Practical steps to begin noticing and processing your own trauma responses.

This episode is a compassionate reminder that nothing about you is broken..you’ve simply adapted to survive.

Have you ever wondered if you’re truly supported by something greater? [ guess what, you are ]

In this episode of the Naturally Empowered Living Podcast, I’m joined by a dear friend and incredible confidant Justina Sharp, founder of Angel Reiki Journey. To listen to this episode is like you’re joining us at the coffee shop for a kindred soulful conversation.

Justina, a Reiki master and intuitive healer, allows her warmth and wisdom to shine through as she encourages us to reconnect with our inner light.. reminding us that we are never alone, and our spirit teams are always with us.

▪️How Reiki can assist in emotional and physical healing, especially in palliative care settings

A couple weeks ago Blanchardville Community Pride hosted their monthly BCPI after 5 events at Naturally Empowered Living and I was reminded of how blessed we are to live in a community that supports one another.

I had the privilege of sharing what I do inside those four walls of NEL where I lease within the makers market of Rooted Collective 201 LLC.. and from all I shared I realized sometimes it’s easy to get consumed by doing all the things that bringing it back to the simple foundations is truly very powerful.

I shared about Reiki and what Root Cause Therapy is, the privacy container we hold in separate room from RC201..as well as my past, present, future approach that integrates our healing and coming back to our innate wholeness. [ I’m not kidding when I say I merge the science with the woo and sometimes my woo terminology gets fluffy and bringing the science of our nervous system in helps bridge the gap for many because you can say the same thing in many different ways ]

But my mission has always been the same..to empower and guide others on their self awakening journey

AKA guiding you back to the foundations of a life rooted in inner sovereignty and authentic alignment

AKA helping you process and release stuck emotions and trauma imprints to break free from what no longer serves you [ ex : perfectionism, overwhelm, anxiety, people pleasing, self sabotage etc etc etc]

AKA to help you transform your struggle cycles into pathways for self love, trust, and connection

AKA to break free from autopilot or survival mode and reconnect with the person you were born to be, innately rooted in peace, presence, confidence, clarity, belief, joy, love, balance…living in your energy of alignment

AKA breaking ties with coping mechanisms, addictive patterns, self sabotaging loops, and subconscious blocks to not have them run your life anymore.

See? Lots of way to say I am a mental health practitioner specializing in energetics, inner child reparenting, and nervous system healing to help you feel good, live in peace, and have unconditional love for yourself and this human experience.
