Don’t mind me… just here to step on your virtual toes and remind you to do something for you 😌…⁣

⁣
Let this serve as your reminder that you are completely, and utterly worth it. And healing can be prioritized for 𝗬𝗢𝗨. ⁣

🔆 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆? 🔆⁣
⁣
So often, people start counseling with “a reason,” but over time that reason expands. Healing becomes a holistic journey… emotional, relational, physical, financial, and spiritual.⁣
⁣
One of my favorite intersections is exploring spirituality alongside mental wellness. The Bible is full of stories that mirror our emotions and struggles (grief, hope, joy, resilience) and they can be powerful guides in real life.⁣
⁣
Now this isn’t for everyone (well… actually it is 😌), but it’s always an option if you want to weave it in. And listen… if you crack the door open👀, I’m sliding my foot 👟 right in! Because there’s so much wisdom in these stories when we read them with fresh eyes. Just like I decolonize therapy, I decolonize conversations about spirituality. That means no oppressive rhetoric here… only liberating, healing dialogue.⁣
⁣
So make sure you watch this quick video clip on Naomi, grief, and what you’re allowing to shape you…⁣
⁣
So tell me… would you be open to talking about your spiritual growth with your counselor?

⁣
But when everything and everyone is filtered through the rearview mirror, we risk living in constant comparison… AND miss the beauty of the 𝘯𝘰𝘸 and the promise of what’s ahead.⁣
⁣
There’s a reason the rearview mirror is smaller than the windshield. 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗳 𝗴𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀… 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. Excuse me while I pause and drop the mic on that one 😌…⁣
⁣
Healing isn’t about forgetting where you’ve been. It’s about not letting where you’ve been block your view of where you’re going!⁣
⁣
Because if you stay stuck staring backward… you just might miss the very thing meant for your future. And if you keep missing the vision, it may not be yours to view much longer 🛑🔚.⁣

𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻… no really *𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴* read the caption. The new term for creating on social media is a content creator by the social media machine. And while there are some REALLY skilled content creators, I’m not one of them 🫠. I am a counselor… but even before I became a counselor, I was a writer. ⁣
⁣
Whether it was long heartfelt message in a card to friends, writing a lecture as a professor, or even sit It started as young as writing one of my infamous I’m going to take run away letters as a child (that I hid because I wasn’t let my Black mama find it to get in more trouble 😂)… to writing letters in the pen pal program through Frish’s (are y’all old enough to remember that 👀)… to writing lectures as a professor… and yes even my healing posts as a fake social media mental health content creator. ⁣
⁣
The reason I write is because words reach the soul something when a voice, a picture or a video can’t... And while yes reading can lower cortisol (stress) levels, improve cognitive functions, and help you learn concentration skills for mindfulness... The reason I write is just as beneficial for you just as it is for me… it’s promotes a sense of connection.⁣
⁣
I don’t write for the likes, but to be in real community with you (and me) on our healing journeys. I always say “healing happens in community”… if you’re here and reading this I want to be part of your community! Maybe some of you will be/are my clients 🤫, some of you are my friends, but more than anything we are all a group of people just trying to get it right and find our versions of happiness.⁣
⁣
So do yourself a favor whenever you see a post of mine… don’t skip the caption. Deal?⁣

There is nothing I love more than talking about love languages and how to use them to better your relationship with your partner, children, friends, coworkers… well anyone!⁣⁣ There are so many memes about love languages out here that it can be hard to know what are the 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 definitions of them really are… So I figured I’ll use my platforms so you can know the true 5️⃣.⁣⁣.. First up… 𝙌𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙏𝙞𝙢𝙚.⁣⁣… As a couples counselor, I often get people (in the beginning) that will say they don’t do anything special and have quality time. Mind you they then go on to share about their binge night of shows regularly, cooking dinner together every Saturday night, or favorite bar they walk to on sunny days in the summer. Quality time isn’t about grand gestures, it’s about sacred simplicity of connection! (Now don’t get me wrong cause sprinkle in them grand gestures too 😬).⁣⁣ But there is unspoken magic in the everyday moments of spending time together.⁣⁣ Like a Waffle House date night… laughing over the chaos of people arguing in the background 👀, holding hands across the spilled remnants of the previous customers food 😧, and walking on the sticky floor that’s coated with who knows 🫣… ⁣⁣Be reminded that quality time is about the ability to be fully present… not scrolling, not rushing, not halfway present… but eyes locked, hearts open, and spirits aligned.⁣⁣ Quality time feels like peace wrapped in presence. Like, this is my person… and even here, even now, it feels like home ❤️…⁣

⁣
Thank you to one of my fellow peers who basically employed being a living pallbearer and encouraged me to put this video out when I was trying to be the one who was doing the encouraging… Thank you Sis…⁣
⁣
So watch and let me know if this video hits home for you… and if it doesn’t… well maybe something is wrong with you 😂. Just kidding! ⁣
⁣
Oh and share it with someone who may need to hear it. Not for likes, not for engagement.:: but because we all are doing these healing journeys together.⁣

It was a privilege to serve this weekend as a panelist and the expert on grief and trauma for the Dayton Performing Arts Alliance production of Requiem. Last nights performance left the audience with many emotions and I saw many tears and heard sniffles throughout the performance.⁣
⁣
What I appreciate about DPAA is that they included the panel as 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺. My goal is and will always be to make grief and trauma easier to talk about individually and collectively as a community. This was exceptionally important as we discussed Joel Thompson’s included piece on the last words of 7 unarmed Black men. This performance accompanied with the panel processing directly after the orchestra and chorus performance does exactly what we are supposed to do to make mental health, trauma and grief embedded in our community conversations! ⁣
⁣
I’m looking forward to the opportunities to participate in many more community conversations and panels this year throughout Cincinnati, Dayton and beyond.⁣
⁣
Let me know in the comments if there are places or collaborations you would like to see me at next! It might just be on the list…⁣

Taking advice is like constructing a building... But instead of a fancy building, the words we take in can build our sense of self, purpose, and build our relationships. We use words of others as a source of data when we determine the route we go through to find our happiness and meet our life’s goals.⁣

⁣
Before you let someone hand you bricks of wisdom, here are 5 questions to ask yourself: ⁣
⁣
🧱 Will this help me build the life I want, or just reinforce the same cracks they (or I) never fixed?⁣
🧱 Will their advice move me forward, or just keep me stuck where they are?⁣
🧱 Am I being guided by wisdom, or just someone’s unresolved wounds?⁣
🧱 Would I trade places with the person giving me this advice? If not, what parts of their advice is are parts I would want to include in my blueprint?⁣
🧱 Am I surrounding myself with people who inspire growth, or just those who validate my comfort zone?⁣
⁣
Be mindful of taking advice when some can only tell you what 𝗻𝗼𝘁 to do because they've never figured out what 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 work.⁣
⁣
Iron sharpens iron, but if you keep letting cotton puffs try to shape you, don’t be surprised when you stay dull. Build your village wisely—your future depends on it.⁣

First of all, I love creating but content planning proves to be a challenge for me 🫠… ⁣⁣But you know what isn’t challenging? Dropping these mental health tips and gems 😌… So I decided to let go of my slight perfectionism, and have a little fun doing the editing… but giving a word when the word comes to me AND actually posting it 🫠.⁣⁣So this one is for 𝗬𝗢𝗨. 𝘕𝘰 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘱𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘬! Too often society glorifies the petty and unhealed traits and wants to put those in a box or pull back the ones who put in that exhausting healing work. Not 👏🏾 on 👏🏾 my 👏🏾 watch👏🏾.⁣⁣So take a few moments and listen to this video and ask yourself… are you hiding your healed light? I hope your answer is no…⁣⁣Feel free to comment if this resonates with you, and maybe it will give my brain dopamine to keep posting more 😬…⁣⁣See ya tomorrow (or in 3 months when I post again 🤣😭).⁣⁣Signed,⁣⁣Dr. Ros⁣⁣ ⁣

Hey you…

Be a little bit more selfish this year. You’re losing yourself again and I don’t like that…

Other people shouldn’t get your first fruit. Feed them off your overflow.

𝗦𝗼𝗼𝗼𝗼𝗼... 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗺𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁? You've prayed on it... You've went to therapy to learn more & understand yourself and how you experience others around you... but yet you keep turning down the volume button when you get that confirmation that something is off...⁣
⁣
Sometimes it's the relationship... Sometimes it's the job... Sometimes it's the family member... Sometimes it's YOU!⁣
⁣
The more you delay trusting your discernment, the more you open yourself up to more mental and spiritual anguish. So what's the benefit of listening to your discernment (when you're in a healed space)? Well I'll tell you 5 benefits:⁣
⁣
1️⃣ Reduce Anxiety: Overthinking and second-guessing your intuition can create unnecessary stress. Trusting your discernment brings clarity & peace of mind.⁣
⁣
2️⃣ Strengthen Your Confidence: Each time you trust your judgment, you build self-confidence, making future decisions feel less overwhelming.⁣
⁣
3️⃣ Reduce Prolonged Emotional Distress: Ignoring your gut feelings can lead to staying in unhealthy situations longer than necessary. Acting on your discernment helps you protect you.⁣
⁣
4️⃣ Foster Spiritual Alignment: Discernment often aligns with your deeper values and beliefs, helping you stay true to yourself and your purpose.⁣
⁣
5️⃣ Promoting Personal Growth: Learning to trust yourself empowers you to navigate life with resilience and self-awareness, essential for mental and spiritual growth.⁣
⁣
Please remember... Trusting your discernment doesn’t mean rushing decisions. It means honoring your inner wisdom while balancing it with thoughtful reflection. ⁣
⁣
Trust yourself—you’re wiser than you realize! Need more help about trusting your discernment or even knowing if it's discernment or trauma speaking to you? Well, stay tuned for workshops coming up on this! ⁣
⁣
Until then, get in with your therapist & work on this!⁣
