Did you know your pace of life speaks directly to your nervous system?

When we live in constant urgency, our body stays in “survival mode”-wired, tense, and on edge. While this can help us push through short-term stress, it prevents true restoration.

Slowness, on the other hand, signals safety. When you intentionally slow down, through mindful breathing, pausing before responding, or resting, you’re telling your nervous system: “You’re safe now.” And that’s when the body finally has the chance to heal.

👉 What’s one way you can invite slowness into your day today?

As a clinician who is passionate about EMDR therapy, I am so looking forward to attending this EMDR conference this week to celebrate 30 years of Trauma Recovery at this year's HAP Conference. This milestone event brings together EMDR clinicians, educators, and advocates to reflect on the past, strengthen the present, and shape the future of trauma-informed care.

I will be attending a two day pre-conference advanced EMDR GAP training where I will learn a stepped-care approach to address recent, present, and past adverse experiences.

With these evidence-based advanced treatment interventions, I will be able to provide interventions to my clients and community for:

🌿Early treatment (crisis care & rapid response 🚨)

🌿Complex clinical presentations (e.g., past prolonged adverse experiences and current ongoing traumas)

🌿Group intervention (for both small groups of 2 people and large groups of 100+ participants)

We talk about birth plans, feeding schedules, nursery colors and all the dreams we have becoming mothers. But we don't talk enough about this....

Perinatal mood and anxiety disorders are the most common complication of childbirth-more common than gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, or hemorrhage. And yet, they're often overlooked, dismissed, or hidden behind closed doors.

If you're struggling, know this:
You are not broken. You are not failing. You are not alone.

There is help. There is hope. And there is a path forward-one step, one breath, one conversation at a time.

Juniper Counseling Services is here to help you! Your story deserves support. Please contact us today at info@juniper-counseling-services.com.

Healing from trauma is more than just understanding what happened to you-it’s about feeling. And sometimes, those feelings can be unexpected, overwhelming, or even confusing.

Every emotion that arises in healing has a purpose.
When we experience trauma, especially as children, our minds and bodies do everything they can to protect us.

Sometimes that means pushing emotions down, ignoring them, or developing coping strategies that help us survive.

But when we finally begin healing, those emotions don’t stay hidden forever. They start to surface, often in ways we don’t expect.

Think of emotions like ocean waves. Some can be small ripples. Others might come crashing in, big and intense. And sometimes, emotions feel like an undertow-pulling you in before you even realize what’s happening. But no matter what form they take, emotions are messages. They are here to tell you something.

Healing is not about getting rid of those emotions-it’s about learning to move through them, to listen to what they re telling you. If emotions are rising, it doesn’t mean you’re going backward. It means you’re moving forward, making space for something new. 🌿✨

When we hold space for discomfort, we teach our nervous system that emotions aren’t threats— they’re just temporary sensations we can move through. 🌿

Instead of shutting down or lashing out, take a moment to pause, breathe, and notice what you’re feeling. Over time, this simple practice helps you break free from reactive patterns and build resilience.

Growth happens when we lean in, not run away.

Rest is not a luxury-it’s a necessity! You deserve to rest, not because you’ve earned it through hard work, but because you’re human, and your body and mind need time to recharge, heal, and exist without demands.

Yet, many of us resist rest. Maybe you’ve internalized the belief that rest is lazy, or perhaps resting feels uncomfortable because it means sitting with emotions or thoughts you’ve been avoiding. But here’s the truth: avoiding rest is not a badge of honor.

It’s self-neglect.

When you deny yourself rest, you deny your body and mind the opportunity to thrive.

You deserve to rest, not just because it replenishes you, but because it’s a radical act of self-love. When you honor your need for rest, you send a powerful message to yourself: I am worthy of care. I am enough, even when I’m not doing anything.

So, take a deep breath, let go of the guilt, and give yourself permission to rest.
