If you tend to pick up on everything—people’s moods, tension in the room, subtle shifts in conversations—you’re not alone. 🌿
Being highly aware and intuitive can be overwhelming, especially when you feel responsible for fixing or responding to it all. 🧠💬

At Healing Tree, we help women navigate the emotional weight that comes with constantly being “on.” You don’t have to process everything by yourself, and you don’t have to carry it all. 🤍

If you’re feeling mentally or emotionally drained, reach out. We’re here to help you reconnect with your peace and create space for yourself again. ☁️🕊️

🌻 Welcome, July.
Not a month of urgency, but a month of soft openings.

Let the sun rise slowly. Let your emotions take up space. Let your healing be honest and unhurried.

Here’s your permission to not rush.
To not compare.
To not chase.
Let this be the month where you’re enough, just as you are.

📖 Journal Prompt:
“What is ready to open in me this month?”
Let it be a whisper, not a demand.

🌿 Are Your Needs Being Met? 🌿
Sometimes we don’t even realize what we’re missing until we see it. That’s why we love the Human Systems Needs Wheel — a powerful tool to reflect on where your emotional, relational, and personal needs are already being met… and where there might be room for more.

📝 Journaling Prompt:
Take a few quiet minutes to:
✔️ Circle the needs that feel fulfilled right now
💡 Reflect on who or what helps meet those needs
🧭 Notice what feels neglected or overlooked
🌱 Brainstorm ways to bring more of those unmet needs into your daily life

Whether you’re longing for connection, rest, creativity, or freedom —your needs are valid. Awareness is the first step toward healing.

💬 If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed, you don't have to figure it out alone.
Reach out to Healing Tree Women’s Counseling Center to be matched with a therapist who truly gets you.

Writing "Atlas of the Heart" changed pretty much everything I thought I knew about the science of emotions. On the website this week I'm sharing 10 learnings that changed how I think about stress and overwhelm. Full references are included.

Overwhelmed by many things. Grateful for even more — including this community. If you're celebrating next week, Happy Thanksgiving!

Humor is essential for mental health 🤍😂 — but not when it becomes a punchline or an excuse.

Sometimes we joke about our struggles because it feels easier than being vulnerable. But when humor turns into sarcasm 🙃, self-deprecation 😅, or a way to brush off what we’re really feeling 💔, it stops helping and starts hiding.

Healthy humor doesn’t minimize our experiences — it helps us hold them lightly without dismissing them. 🌈 It reminds us that even in the mess, there’s still room for joy 🌻, connection 🤝, and even a little silliness 🥸.

✨ We can laugh without making our pain the joke.
🌱 We can heal without turning our diagnosis into an identity.
🌼 We can grow without pretending everything’s fine.

🌿 You deserve laughter that lifts you up — not covers you up. 💛

"Why don’t they just leave?” isn’t just a harmful question, it also ignores the complex, often dangerous reality that many victims’ face when attempting to leave an abusive relationship. Every person’s situation is unique, and victims may be unable to leave a situation for a complex combination of reasons.

At The Hotline, we know that leaving an abusive relationship is not always a safe or straightforward choice and that survivors deserve empathy, resources, and support, not judgment.

Read our blog for 50 common barriers survivors face when leaving a relationship: https://www.thehotline.org/resources/get-help-50-obstacles-to-leaving/
