After a rocky period with a partner, I caught myself thinking, “I need them to rebuild my trust.” It didn’t take me long to realize that all I can control is myself. I needed to make up with ME. Yes—even if things happened that were totally lame and not always my fault. 

Started your healing journey but haven’t started feeling the results yet? Don’t fret! Here are a few steps to help you navigate your healing journey with ease.

What stories are you telling yourself? Have you been operating as if one single story is your full story? Has that story helped you make the best of your situation lately, or are you feeling stuck in it?

With healing – especially emotional or spiritual healing – people often expect to be able to make one BIG life shift and then, they assume, the healing is over. Wash your hands, you’re done. That’s not really how it goes, though.

Say you’ve been experiencing a slump in your life. You know things could be better! In fact, they have been better. You’ve heard of meditation and even have a little experience with it, but why sit down and do nothing when everything seems to be caving in on you? I’m glad you asked.

What if we all had permission to feel what’s really coming up for us, no matter how trivial or ridiculous? What would happen if we stopped trying to fix emotions or, worse, trying to fix the people having the uncomfortable emotions?

What is it that brings you that childlike sense of joy and wonder? What’s that deep thing that’s your “Heck yeah!”? What would happen if you gave yourself more of that?

No doubt you’ve been told many times to follow your gut feeling. “Trust your gut!,” What does this mean, exactly?

I went skiing for the first time last week.
I fell… A lot.
Now, before you start rolling your eyes at me, this is not one of those “fall 7 times, get up 8” or “practice makes perfect” blogs. These falls taught me something different.

Taking on energy that isn’t yours can cause all sorts of emotional confusion – including the Winter Blues.
