Being aware of your communication
December 17, 2025 - blog

Here we are in Christmas week. Writing about communication feels especially fitting, as many of us will be gathering with family and friends over the coming days. The holidays can be joyful—and they can also be stressful. With stress often comes less patience, a shorter fuse, and more opportunities for misunderstanding.

We’ve written many blogs about how you get to choose your reaction to any situation. And it always comes back to self—how you respond. Communication is not about controlling others; it’s about empowering yourself. It’s about taking care of yourself, gathering more information so you can better understand, taking ownership of your participation, honoring yourself, and communicating effectively.

How you say something matters. Tone of voice, body language, and word choice profoundly influence how a message is received and the lasting impact it has on another person. Often, the how of communication carries more weight than the what.

When you are conversing with someone, the other person’s perception of the message becomes their reality—regardless of your original intent. That doesn’t mean you are wrong, but it does mean that awareness, presence, and curiosity are essential if understanding is the goal.

The invitation during this season is to slow down. To pause before reacting. To listen with the intention to understand rather than to defend. To ask clarifying questions. To remember that everyone is bringing their own experiences, expectations, and emotional history into the room.

Effective communication doesn’t require perfection—it requires mindfulness. And especially during the holidays, a little more patience, compassion, and self-awareness can go a long way toward creating connection instead of conflict.

As you move through gatherings this season, consider this simple practice:
Before responding, pause and take one conscious breath. Let that breath create a small space between what was said and how you choose to respond.

Ask yourself:

What am I feeling right now?
What might the other person be experiencing?
What response would honor both of us?
Remember, you don’t need to fix, convince, or defend. Sometimes the most powerful form of communication is presence—listening without interruption, speaking with intention, and choosing kindness when it would be easier to react.

This season, give yourself permission to communicate in a way that feels aligned, respectful, and true to who you are becoming. Small moments of awareness can soften conversations, strengthen connection, and create a more peaceful experience—for you and for those around you.

Listening to understand, in the flow,

Deb

Our recent blog!
Insomnia
December 10, 2025
Insomnia is when you aren’t sleeping as you should. That can mean you aren’t sleeping enough, you aren’t sleeping well or you’re having trouble falling or staying asleep.

Your need for sleep changes throughout your life. Infants need significantly more sleep, between 14 and 17 hours per day, while adults need about 7-9 hours per day.

Sleep is a vital biological necessity as important to survival and health as food and water. It affects nearly every tissue and system in the body, playing a critical role in physical repair, mental function, and emotional regulation.

Daytime effects of insomnia include:

-feeling tired, unwell or sleepy -delayed reflexes

-trouble remembering things

– mood disruptions, especially irritability

-disruptions in work or social routines

-slowed thinking or trouble concentrating

There are many ways to treat insomnia, ranging from a holistic approach to lifestyle changes, and many turn to medication. Some home remedies include:

-maintaining a consistent schedule by going to bed and wake up at the same time every day, including weekends, to regulate your body’s internal clock.

-optimize sleep environment by keeping your bedroom dark, quiet and at a comfortable, cool temperature.

-Establish a bedtime routine by winding down for at least an hour before bed with relaxing activities like reading a book, listen to calm music, or take a warm bath or shower.

-Limit stimulants and heavy meals in the hours leading up to bedtime as they can disrupt sleep patterns.

-Get regular exercise. Physical activity during the day can help you sleep better. However, exercising vigorously too close to bedtime can be stimulating.

-Manage worries by making a to-do list for the next day or journal what’s on your mind, before bedtime. It will get those thoughts out of your head and help you fall asleep instead of worrying while in bed.

-Make an appointment with us at Healing Waters to get a balance that will help relax and re-set your internal clock.

If you are interested in a special workshop focusing on sleep issues, join us for a 4-week course at Healing Waters in January. The course, Sleepy Vibes, will be taught by sleep specialist, Ryan Wimperis. Click on the “Sleepy Vibes Workshop” button under the read more button to get the link to learn more and to register. Save $50 if you register before Dec. 17th.

Sleeping well in the flow,

✨ Awaken Your Body’s Natural Healing Energy ✨

Energy healing is more than just a practice—it’s a holistic approach to wellness that connects the mind, body, and spirit. Illness and imbalance often begin at the energetic level, and when your energy flows freely, your body’s natural healing ability is amplified.

The EESystem works with principles of energy healing like bioenergetics and resonance:
🌿 Bioenergetics – Understanding the flow of energy within your body. Imbalances can show up physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
🌿 Resonance – When energy frequencies align, they amplify healing. The EESystem emits specific frequencies to support your body’s natural balance.

By tuning into your energy and addressing blockages, you can support your body’s innate ability to heal, restore, and thrive.

💫 Are you ready to experience the power of energy healing?

Sleepy Vibes: A 4-Week Holistic Sleep Healing Series

at the Sound Lounge

If your sleep feels disrupted, you’re not alone—over 35% of adults report getting less than the recommended 7 hours of sleep, and even small interruptions in sleep can increase stress hormones, lower mood, and reduce the body’s natural ability to heal. Chronic poor sleep has been linked to reduced immune function, heightened anxiety, and decreased cognitive performance.
Sleep isn’t just “rest”—it’s one of the most essential biological processes for whole-body wellness.

Sleepy Vibes is a transformative four-week holistic sleep healing series designed to help you reset, restore, and reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm. Blending educational content with nervous-system-focused sound baths and time in the Energy Enhancement System (EES), this series supports your sleep from the inside out.

Each week includes a 30–40 minute learning session followed by a restorative sound bath, guiding your nervous system out of stress mode and into deep relaxation. Instead of relying on temporary sleep aids or surface-level fixes, you’ll explore the real reasons sleep becomes disrupted and how to heal it in sustainable, supportive ways.

Over Four Weeks, You’ll Learn:

✨ What sleep actually is and why deep rest is essential for physical repair, emotional balance, and brain health
✨ How to create a sleep-supportive bedroom environment, including light, temperature, and technology habits
✨ How daily rhythms influence rest
✨ How stress, anxiety, and nervous system dysregulation disrupt sleep—and practical ways to restore calm

To support your healing journey, you’ll receive weekly take-home materials so you can personalize these practices at your own pace. This series honors the belief that you are your own healer, with the ability to modify and apply what works best for your life.

Join the Full Series for the Greatest Impact

Registration for all four weeks is encouraged for cumulative benefits, but individual sessions are also available.

✨ Register for the full series and receive a FREE Sleep Kit!

Reconnect with your body. Reclaim your rest.
Rediscover what peaceful, restorative sleep feels like—one evening at a time.
