There’s a reason they tell you to put your oxygen mask on first.

Not because others don’t matter…But because you can’t guide, hold, love, or lead from a place where you can’t breathe.

Self-care isn’t selfish — it’s sustaining.

It’s the water you drink before you’re thirsty.The boundary you hold before resentment builds.The walk you take when your mind feels loud.The prayer, the breath, the quiet moment that brings you back home to yourself.

Like a trail…You don’t sprint the whole thing.You pace. You rest. You recalibrate. You stay the path.

Supporting your physical, emotional, and spiritual self isn’t a detour —It is the path.

Put your oxygen mask on.Then keep walking.

Happy Valentine's Day! Today, I encourage you to celebrate love in all its forms—self-love, love for others, and love for the world around you. Take a moment to nurture your mind, body, and spirit. Embrace activities that bring you joy, connect deeply with loved ones, and practice gratitude for the love that surrounds you. Remember, true wellness begins with the love and care you give to yourself.

Okay, quick vote: Music or silence when you’re stressed? (Comment your pick!)

Here’s something interesting:

When you’re overwhelmed, your nervous system is basically trying to decide: “Am I safe right now?”

Sound can be a HUGE part of that.

For some people, music helps regulate emotions because it gives the brain something steady to focus on — especially if it’s a familiar playlist.

For others, silence is what helps, because noise feels overstimulating when emotions are already high.

If you’re supporting a teen (or honestly… yourself), this is a great thing to notice: Do they calm down with sound… or with quiet?

There’s no right answer — just learning what helps your body settle.

Overthinking can feel like your brain is running a marathon… while you’re just trying to get through a normal day.

Replaying conversations.
Reading into tone.
Thinking about what you should’ve said.
Worrying about what might happen next.

And the hardest part?
A lot of people don’t even realize it’s anxiety — they just assume they’re “bad at relaxing” or “too much.”

If this is you, here’s a gentle reminder:
You’re not broken.
Your brain is trying to keep you safe.

And you don’t have to live with a mind that never gets a break.

Pause for a moment.
You don’t need to fix anything.

Just notice where your body feels tight, heavy, or guarded today.
Maybe it’s your jaw.
Your chest.
Your shoulders.
Your belly.

If it feels okay, place a steady, gentle hand there.
Not to push or change — just to let that part of you know it’s supported.

Send your breath there slowly.
Let the exhale be a little longer.
Let your body feel the consistency of your touch.

Fascia — the connective tissue that holds everything together — softens with safety, slowness, and presence.
When the body feels safe, the nervous system can follow.

This is regulation.
This is care.
This is enough for right now.

Save this for later.
Come back to it when your body needs a reminder that it doesn’t have to hold everything alone.

Most people think calming down starts with taking a deep breath in…. But regulation actually begins with a longer breath out.

When you extend your exhale, you activate your parasympathetic nervous system (the part of your body responsible for rest, digestion, and safety).

A longer exhale sends a signal to your brain saying “I am safe enough to slow down.”

This can help us:

• Reduce anxiety
• Slow racing thoughts
• Lower heart rate
• Release physical tension
• Support emotional regulation

Try this with me:

Inhale for 4…
Exhale for 6–8…
Repeat for 1–3 minutes.

Small breath shifts create big nervous system changes 🤍

3 things I want you to hear today.

1. You matter — even on the days you don’t feel like yourself.
Not just when you’re productive. Not just when you’re doing well. Not just when you’re holding it all together. You matter because you’re you.

2. You don’t have to explain your pain perfectly for it to be real.
If you don’t have the words… if you can’t pinpoint the reason… if you feel “fine” and not fine at the same time — it still counts. You still deserve support.

3. You were never meant to carry everything alone.
Struggling doesn’t mean you’re weak. It means you’re human. And you are allowed to reach for help, even if nothing looks “bad enough” from the outside.

If my brain had tabs open like a computer, some days it would look like this:

Tab 1: Did I say something weird earlier?
Tab 2: What if I fail this test and ruin everything?
Tab 3: I should text back… but what do I even say?
Tab 4: Why do I feel stressed when nothing is even happening?
Tab 5: Don’t forget about that thing next week.
Tab 6: Everyone else seems fine. What’s wrong with me?

And the exhausting part is…
none of those tabs close on their own.

That’s what anxiety can feel like.
Not always panic.
Not always obvious.
Just a brain running too many background programs at once.

If you relate to this, here’s something I want you to know:
You’re not “dramatic.”
You’re not “too much.”
You’re not broken.

Your mind might just be carrying more than it knows how to hold right now.

And support can help.

Valentines Day ideas❤️❤️

Infrared Red Light Sauna located in Grainfield KS

Saturday mornings have become sacred in my routine.

Before the noise of the week…
I start with stillness.

Tea.
My planner.
My devotional.
Space to breathe.

It’s less about productivity — and more about regulation.

How do you reset on the weekends? ☀️
