Glimmers are small signals of safety your body recognizes before your mind does. The first sip. The quiet. The person you don’t have to explain yourself to. Sometimes you need a signal that you’re safe again. That’s what glimmers are. 💫💛

Happy Wednesday (evening)!
The sooner we accept that two differing beliefs/emotions/thoughts can be true at the same time the easier it becomes to be more self compassionate ❤️‍🩹

I have not had many people to talk to about this.

My story starts long long ago… when I was a toddler at dinner my family passed ketchup under the table. I was afraid of it. I didn’t want to even see it near me without crying.

You may not see the connection, read on friend…

Why I hate ketchup still today is valid.

SOUNDS: I am very sensitive to noise and the bottles back in the day were even louder I swear.

TOUCH: It is slimey and gross to wipe off

SMELL: It is a strong scent that is not appealing to me in any way

It was deeper than I could tell anyone about. Everything was. I struggled to eat most of my life. Eat enough or eat too much.

Sometimes the idea of eating is awful. I cannot force food in my mouth without getting nauseous. Anxiety and my emotions greatly impact my ability to eat.

I struggle in a BIG way with food choices. I have staples but they have to switch around. Most of the time I try something new I regret it a little. I am a creature of habit and consistency.

I eat pepperoni on pizza now. For many years cheese or I was OUT 🍕

I don’t eat salad or lettuce ever🥬

I have extensive thoughts on food if you have questions, let’s get into it! I’m not the expert in food but we have to talk about it more.

I have a lifetime of food issues.

DISCLAIMER: everyone is different! When I share experiences the intention is to educate and spark helpful discussion. Let’s help each other find answers.

Happy Monday!

Here’s your daily reminder to trust the process and acknowledge that the seeds (literally or metaphorically) you plant today will not sprout today.

Be kind to yourself 💜

Happy Friday!

Spring may feel far away today ❄️
But before you know it, it will be time to plant seeds in the garden.

Stop by our office for a free Marigold seed packet 🪴

Marigolds are a great addition to any garden! They enhance the taste of tomatoes, ward off pests, and bring in pollinators.

Don’t forget to practice your mindfulness skills as you plant and care for your marigold seeds. They will bloom into beautiful flowers in no time.
