With the wildfires affecting communities throughout the Okanagan, this can be an incredibly stressful and uncertain time. 🤍

🌿 I’m offering free 30-minute counselling sessions through Tideline Wellness for anyone directly impacted by the wildfires, as well as firefighters, first responders, volunteers, support workers, and others involved in responding to or supporting our communities through the fires. 🫶

📍 Sessions are available in person in Penticton, virtually, or by phone.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, processing what you’ve experienced, supporting others through it, or simply need a safe place to talk — this space is here for you. 🌱

There’s no expectation around what you need to talk about or how you “should” be feeling. Sometimes having somewhere to put what you’ve been carrying can help. 🤍
There is no cost and no obligation to continue counselling afterward.

💌 To book, send me a DM or email [email protected].

Please feel free to share this with anyone who may benefit. 🌿🤍

Some days I can walk this path and feel open, energized and connected. On other days, the very same path can feel much heavier.

When I notice myself moving into activation or shutdown—feeling overwhelmed, disconnected or unable to manage everyday tasks—the forest is often where I go to ground myself.

I don’t expect nature to immediately fix how I feel. Instead, I gently invite myself to slow down and notice the colours, sounds and smells around me.

Gradually, my attention begins shifting away from everything I am carrying and toward the present moment.

This is one of the ideas behind ecotherapy: intentionally connecting with the natural world as a supportive space for reflection, connection and wellbeing. Time in nature may help reduce stress and mental fatigue while giving our attention something steady to orient toward. 🌿

It is okay to have off days.

It is okay to have less capacity this week than you did last week.

Instead of criticizing ourselves for having a smaller window, we can become curious:

Do I need rest?
Movement?
Quiet?
Connection?

For me, walking through the forest creates space to rest while gently helping me recharge.

The path may be the same, but I am not arriving with the same capacity every day—and that is okay.

What helps you reconnect with yourself when life feels heavy?

Have you ever responded strongly to something that normally wouldn’t bother you—or found yourself shutting down when you wanted to stay present?

The Window of Tolerance offers a compassionate way of understanding these experiences.

When we are within our window, we can experience stress and emotion while remaining connected to our ability to think, communicate, and choose how we respond.

When stress exceeds our present capacity, we may move toward:

⬆️ High activation—feeling anxious, reactive, restless or overwhelmed.

⬇️ Shutdown—feeling numb, disconnected, tired or unable to think clearly.

We all move in and out of this window. Our capacity can also change from day to day depending on how much we are carrying.

The goal isn’t to remain calm all the time. It’s to begin recognizing our patterns with greater curiosity and less criticism.

**What are the first signs that tell you your nervous system may be reaching its capacity?**

♡You’re welcome to share your reflections below, consider the question privately, or send this post to someone who may find it helpful.♡

If you’d like support understanding your own nervous-system patterns, you can learn more about Elevated Wellness Counselling through the link in my bio.

This season can bring magic.... but it can also bring overwhelm, emotional fatigue, grief, and pressure. It's okay if this time of year feels heavier than you expected.

To offer extra support this season, I'm offering 4 Winter Wellness Packages - each includes 4 session at 50% off.

I can provide virtual counselling, phone-sessions, and walk-and-talks. I work with stress, overwhelm, grief, transitions, emotional regulation, and grounding through nature-based approaches, CBT, and somatic tools.

If you or someone you know could use support this winter, feel free to reach out anytime.

DM me if your have any questions, want to book a session, or we can connect through www.ElevatedWellnessCounselling.ca
