Navigating Love's Uncharted Waters 🌊
*
John Gottman's wisdom reminds us that not every argument can be resolved, but don’t let this discourage you! This is a completely expected part of any relationship.
*
When this happens, we have to learn to accept that *this* particular argument is one we won’t come to an agreement on. And instead we need to focus on dialoguing differently.
*
Instead of trying to convince your partner that your way is right, try to understand where they are coming from, and why that POV is so important to
*

Understanding and accepting our differences can strengthen the bonds of love. Let’s embrace what makes us unique and grow together. ❤️

🌱🧠Holistic Mental Health: Why It Matters
*
A holistic perspective on mental health offers a more comprehensive, individualized, and preventive approach.
*
It recognizes the mind-body connection, focuses on root causes, and reduces stigma.
*
By addressing all aspects of one’s well-being, it aims for long-term success and encourages self-empowerment. 💪❤️
*
Check out the blog on to learn more about our holistic mental health services, and schedule a session with me!

PEOPLE DON'T ALWAYS WANT A SOLUTION! Sometimes they just need to vent.
*
Next time your partner starts complaining about something, try just *being there for them* without problem solving.
*
You’ll be amazed at how differently this interaction will go from past experiences where you’ve tried to give advice or problem solve for them.
*
Put yourself in their shoes: next time YOU just need to vent, and inevitably someone tries to offer a solution (or even worse - criticizes you), take a minute & note how that feels. I bet it doesn’t feel good..
*
Remember these 3 words next time someone you love comes to you to vent: listen, acknowledge, validate!!! That’s it! ✨

“He loves me. He loves me not. He loves me. He loves me not.” 🌹
*
Ever find yourself turning to flower petals, magic 8 balls, and oracle decks when your crush has gone MIA for a couple days...or maybe a couple hours?
*
Why isn’t he texting back?
Did he not have a good time?
Maybe he met someone else?
*
Then you find yourself on his Instagram looking at posts from 2015, wondering “who’s that girl on his arm?”🤦‍♀️
*
All these sabotaging thoughts start swimming in your mind...and you begin feeling anxious and frustrated.
*
As an otherwise successful, driven, and loving woman - dating tends to strike up your deepest insecurities + shake your confidence.
*
Why can’t it be easier? 🤔
Believe it or not, it can be!

I can’t stop thinking about this..
*
I’m struggling with it - I find myself feeling a bit defiant, screaming “why not/says who!!??” inside my head - but also deep down I know it’s true
*
This is coming up for me in a very personal way right now - having to do with relationships (and ice cream lol) ❤️‍🔥
*
I’m still working through what it means for me, but I needed to post this here
*
What does this mean for you?? I’m hoping your experiences with this notion will help me figure my s**t out.. or at least bring me some comfort on what’s feeling like a **ttuesday 😜

It’s Sunday, I’m sharing a porch swing with Franklin looking out onto I’m reading Nicholas Sparks (shut up.. it’s also why I love Hallmark movies - a carefree & idyllic escape), enjoying a rose water steamer from and about to take a dip in one of the loveliest lakes in the world
*
I needed this getaway badly, and I will miss it when I’m gone, so I’m soaking up every moment with the man I love and my fur baby
*
Admittedly, I don’t do enough of these things Ms. Alcott mentions, and I know I need to make the time and space to do so
*
So for now, I wanted to share with you all exactly how I’m trying to abide by her advice (pics and videos of this wondrous place I get to call home to follow)
*
How are you cultivating your body and today?

What nourishes your mind, body, spirit??

Being in the outdoors, fresh air, the sound of the birds, the breeze, and a garden are some of the things that nourish my soul!

I have to give credit where it’s due! .costello is the gardener in this house. Among his many other talents 😘 ❤️

What’s a bid for connection?
*
It’s any attempt from partner to another for attention, affirmation, affection, or any other positive connection.
*
Bids show up in simple ways such as a smile, wink, reaching out a hand, or even asking for advice or help.
*
Bids are often nonverbal, cues such as:
Affectionate touching
Facial expressions
Playful touching
Vocalizing (a laugh, groan, sigh..)
*
Are you good at recognizing when your partner is trying to make a bid for connection?
*
How do you make bids for your partners attention? What’s your preferred delivery bid method. Try to tune into bids today and see what you notice.
