✉️ Thank you for a busy inbox of messages as we return to regular routines this week.

I have some admin time scheduled for this afternoon and will get back to those already in my inbox then.

I am looking forward to all of your in-person hands-on sessions this month and next.

Some days, the work is very basic.

Drinking water.
Eating something.
Letting the body rest while still tending to it.
That counts.

Low-capacity days don’t require motivation — they require permission to meet needs differently.

🩵 Gentle reframe:

“I get to nourish myself.”
“I am allowed to care for my body at the level I can today.”
“Small care is still real care.”

This is not giving up.
It’s staying in relationship with yourself.

How My Work Is Different

Much of the emotional and somatic world relies on story, explanation, and emotional labeling.
Those tools can be useful — when the nervous system is regulated enough to hold them.

Without that regulation, people often hit a wall.

They may understand what they feel, or even be able to name it —
but going any further feels frightening, overwhelming, or unsafe.

This is not resistance.
It’s a capacity issue.

🪷 My work starts before the story

I work nervous-system first.
Because without safety and regulation:

• language becomes fragile
• insight doesn’t integrate
• learning doesn’t hold
• emotions escalate instead of move

🪷 With regulation:

• understanding comes more easily
• language develops naturally
• emotions become workable rather than threatening
• integration happens without forcing

Language and meaning are important —
but they land best after the nervous system is steady enough to receive them.

🪷 What I do

I help people remain intact while emotions move.

That means I focus on:

• orientation and nervous-system stability
• pacing that respects capacity
• staying present without overwhelm
• allowing emotions to move without collapse

I can help people understand and articulate their emotions —
but I don’t force labels or narratives.

🪷 Instead, we often work with:

• textures and qualities of feeling
• where emotions are sensed in the body
• patterns beneath recurring issues
• the difference between the root of something and the topic itself

This allows language to emerge in a way that actually fits the person.

🪷 What I intentionally do not do
I do not:

• push emotional excavation
• require story-telling or reliving
• assume naming is always helpful
• interpret the body for someone
• move faster than the nervous system allows

These are not limitations.

🩵 They are intentional choices grounded in nervous-system literacy.

🪷 Why this matters

Many people are not afraid of their emotions.

They are afraid of what happens when they lose stability inside them.

My work creates enough internal safety for emotions to move, meaning to form, and understanding to grow — without overwhelming the system.

Insight is not the starting point.
🩵 Capacity is.

Fear isn’t the problem.

It’s a protective response shaped by experience, memory, and care.

When fear is met with presence instead of urgency, it stops needing to brace.

This is where real change happens — not by forcing courage, but by allowing the system to feel accompanied.

When fear is received with steadiness, the body reorganizes on its own.
Nothing has to be pushed away for something new to take shape.

I love videos that support "why I'm not crazy" 😉

🪷 I am waiting for the day that our neurodivergent brains (all of the neurodivergent brains) are recognized as the frequencies they are, in a world that lets them be what they truly are. Which will actually serve the world in ways that are positively forever changing.

There is no rush to return.

Monday doesn’t require performance.

You’re allowed to re-enter gently —
letting the body arrive before the mind asks anything of it.

Orientation comes first.
Movement follows naturally.

🩵 Hand on Heart:

“I am allowed to arrive gently.”

“I am present even if I am not fully ready.”

🪷 Empathic perception is a stable trait.
What changes is how it’s carried, refined, and expressed.

Being empathic is not a phase.

It is a persistent perceptual capacity.

What may evolve over time is:
• regulation
• containment
• discernment
• orientation
• use of perception

Just like intelligence, musical ability, or pattern recognition:
• you don’t “stop having it”
• you refine how it functions

🪷 The perception was always there.
Only the architecture around it changed.

For some empathic (and many neurodivergent) nervous systems, refinement can involve experiences such as:
• empathic flooding
• hypervigilance layered onto perception
• emotional reactivity under pressure
• blunt truth used as protection
• mistaking intensity for accuracy

These are not flaws.

They are early or uncontained expressions of the same perceptual capacity.

And often, especially in childhood,
there simply aren’t people around us who know how to:
• recognize these traits
• protect them
• guide their development
or help us integrate them with safety and structure

🩵 So we adapt the best we can with what’s available.

---
🪷

With time, support, and self-understanding,
that same perception can become:

• less overwhelming
• more internally referenced
• more discerning
• less reactive
• more precise

Empathy doesn’t disappear.
It becomes more useable and discerning.

I’m back in session this week and next.

January tends to show us where the body has been compensating — through the holidays, through stress, through holding things together longer than intended.

If you’ve been noticing:

• increased tension or pain
• inflammation or swelling
• restless sleep or nervous system fatigue
• a sense of being “on” without fully settling
this is often a good time to receive support.

🪷
My hands-on reflexology sessions work with the nervous system and the body together — supporting regulation, physical relief, and a deeper sense of settling.

A few spaces remain this week and next.
You’re welcome to reach out if it feels timely.
