Simple Mindfulness is a 30min guided embodied practice designed to help you slow down, turn inward, and reconnect with the body through awareness, rest, and gratitude.

In this practice, Dr. Adrian Campbell offers a supportive, invitational experience rooted in embodied mindfulness, and based on Veterans Yoga Project's 5 tools of mindful resilience. No prior experience is required.

You’re encouraged to practice in a space where you’re able to mindfully turn inward. All practices can be done seated or lying down, and everything offered is an invitation. This is your practice — you’re always encouraged to listen to your body, skip anything that doesn’t feel right, and honor what you need in each moment.
The practice is approximately 30 minutes and includes: - mindful movement combined with a body scan meditation - guided rest in the form of yoga nidra - a closing gratitude practice with breath awareness is woven throughout the experience.

This practice is especially supportive during times of stress, emotional overwhelm, fatigue, or when you feel disconnected from yourself. You can return to it as often as needed — as a pause, a reset, or a moment of embodied listening.

When Caring Hurts: Compassion Fatigue in a Time of Collective Crisis

The Energetic Psyche – Season 3, Episode 4

In this episode of The Energetic Psyche, Dr. Adrian Campbell explores compassion fatigue and secondary trauma in the context of ongoing collective crisis.

As violence, injustice, and suffering dominate the news and social media, many people are experiencing exhaustion, emotional overwhelm, anxiety, and physical stress — often without realizing they’re dealing with compassion fatigue.

This episode unpacks how prolonged caring, witnessing, and emotional engagement can overwhelm the body and psyche, even for those outside high-stress professions.

Dr. Campbell discusses the early warning signs of compassion fatigue, the impact of repeated media exposure, and why sustainability — not overexertion — is essential if we want to keep showing up and creating change.

The episode also introduces practical, embodied tools for resilience, including mindful movement, breathwork, meditation, guided rest, and gratitude as a 30min guided mindfulness practice.

This episode is for anyone feeling worn down by constant awareness, struggling to rest, or trying to balance care, action, and self-preservation in challenging times.

This is a marathon, not a sprint — and care is how we stay in it.

So many of us are trying to stay informed, stay engaged, stay compassionate — and quietly running ourselves into the ground in the process.

Caring deeply isn’t the problem.
Caring without limits is.

If we want to keep showing up — for our communities, our values, and each other — care for ourselves has to be part of the work. Not as a reward. Not as an afterthought. But as a necessity.

In this week's blog and on The Energetic Psyche, I talk about compassion fatigue, secondary trauma, and how to stay present in hard times without burning out. There's a 30 min practice in the podcast episode, to hopefully provide a moment of peace.

You matter in this.
Take care of yourself. 🌿

Most New Year’s resolutions don’t fail because of willpower. They fail because of timing.

Winter isn’t a season for forced momentum — it’s a season for rest, reflection, and gentle preparation. And when we ignore that, our bodies push back with exhaustion, burnout, and overwhelm.

In this episode of The Energetic Psyche, I explore why nearly 80% of New Year’s resolutions fall apart — and how listening to seasonal rhythms can support more sustainable change.

The episode also includes a guided somatic mindfulness practice to help you slow down, turn inward, and listen to what your body is actually asking for right now.

What is trauma informed yoga?

The term is tossed around a lot, and different people have used it in different ways.

For me Trauma Informed Yoga is about putting the nervous system first.

Everything I do in my classes is intentional, from the lack of music to the focus on the breath.

You're never forced or pressured into a posture, you're invited.

And you're given permission to choose what is best for you, which may be different theme what I guide you towards.

It's different, but it's my favorite. I honestly never really liked yoga, unruly I found this type of class.

If you're interested, I'd love to have you join me, and remember 1st Responders and Military are free.

And if you're a civilian, every class you attend supports my ability to offer it to them for free, so thank you.

🤘😊🙌
