I heard this today on an NPR radio show today about mental health after the pandemic and civil unrest in Minneapolis.
In homeopathy we talk about the "state" someone is in and that is what we aim to treat.

Happy Valentine's Day!

This one hit home for me this morning.

I have to admit - sometimes my inner voice sounds like Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh. It has taken work (honestly, ongoing work) to combat my inner Eeyore. Here are some tips.

*Be conscious of my tendencies
*Name the beast
*Identify it's purpose
*Thank it
*Change course

Through the help of my coach, therapists, my husband and loving friends I have become conscious of my negativity and can name it. Dartanyan is my go-to name for anything evil. I acknowledge it's purpose. This inner critic has our best interests in mind. Perhaps it is warning against failure, rejection or embarrassment. It's okay to be afraid of these things, in fact, it's natural. Say a thank you and pivot, move forward, find solutions, figure it out, take a deep breath and carry on!

Be gentle with yourself 💖

Self-care is a practice that our society does not always support. It can be difficult to put practices in place that nurture your wellbeing.

Practice makes progress.

It can be uncomfortable to say "no" when we are the "yes" person. If you are not used to it assertiveness can feel like aggression. It is important for you to have the right people to support you while you are making changes. Sometimes that maybe a friend or family member but often it is a therapist, coach or healer.

The important thing is that you are supported when making changes so that they can be sustained.

I like this.

Self-care is caring for your mental health. It's time to prioritize your wellbeing. If you are suffering from anxiety - please seek help.

Anxiety in young adults is on the rise. I use coaching and natural medicines to help clients manage their anxiety so they can move through life happier, healthier and with ease.

Do you have plans Saturday? Come visit me at this Wellness Event. It will be packed full of thoughtful discussion, education & fun to make for a healthy & happy 2023!

Reimagine Routine Wellness Event This Saturday!

It's a LEAVE-THE-YOGA-MAT-OUT kind of week. I tweaked my back shoveling last week. This week I am setting 45 minute work sessions to stretch, roll out my hips and open my heart-center.

Anyone else feeling the pain?

Is your inner-voice your worst critic?

Are you competing against yourself?

Do you withhold joy from yourself?

When I talk about self-care I am not referring to massages and high-quality shampoos (although both are nice!). The self care I am talking about is HOW you treat YOURSELF! There is an inner-voice that will repeat childhood trauma unless it is interrupted. There is a societal pull that will mold your life if not rejected. And there is a child inside of each of us that deserves love AND joy.

Self care is not about what we purchase to compensate for what we lack. Self care is how we care for ourselves on the deepest and most intimate ways.

Love this!

The five love languages 🌮

Often anxiety and depression can go hand and hand. When dealing with either or both you may feel like you are missing out on the best part of life - peace in the present moment.

Anxiety coaching and natural medicines can help. I work with clients to understand their triggers, practice mindfulness and coping mechanisms.

What better way for grounding and healing than through those gifts given to us from nature. I combine herbalism, homeopathy and food as nourishment to support clients while they are exploring their anxiety.

The combination of coaching and natural medicines allows for powerful and deep healing.
