May you find joy in each moment, breath, and comforts in your life no matter how big or small today and always.

Your reminder that everything you see during the holidays is just a highlight reel and not reality.

All the gratitude and appreciation don’t do it justice just how much each one of my clients means to me. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I love making a check list! It is so satisfying to look back and see what all I have accomplished during the day. It’s especially helpful on those fast-paced or busy days. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​What do you do to help you stay on track?

Taking a lunch break regularly can help boost your productivity, mood, morale, and many other areas of your life. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​It can be so temping to work through lunch to try to get your check list completed or to leave a little early. (I know, I do it too).

It’s so important to take even 15 minutes to ourselves whether that’s eating or getting some fresh air for a minute.

Do you take advantage of your lunch break?

Changing your perspective can be very hard, but it can also be extremely beneficial. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​You are worthy on your hardest and worst days.

You are worthy on your best and most joyful days.

What do you do on a tough day that makes you feel worthy?

Did you know that a real pumpkin means the house is handing out non-food items to trick-or-treaters? This is especially great if you have food allergies or health concerns that diet plays a role in. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Also, a trick-or-treater with a blue pumpkin means the trick-or-treater has autism. They be non-verbal or have poor fine motor skills.

We often talk about and hear the term “red flags”. Typically this term is also referring to people you may be talking to, significant others, or someone in that capacity. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​What about “green flags”? What about the positive things other people in our lives bring to the table or should bring to the table in a friendship, relationship, family members, etc?

Let’s take a moment to reflect on the “green flags” we desire, need, and appreciate in those around us. And yes, we all have NEEDS regarding “green flags” that allow us to live in a safe, enjoyable space.

What are some other green flags? ⬇️

Chances are, if we’re not grieving, we’re not healing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It doesn’t just happen when someone we love dies. It happens when something we envisioned and dreamt of is no longer possible. When a friendship is lost. Changing family relationships. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There is more than one way to experience grief and there more than one reason to experience grief. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We’re constantly experiencing grief so much so that we often feel we are complaining about things or asking “why me”. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This may actually be beneficial to allow us to validate the discomfort and help identify what exactly is going on. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are you currently grieving in terms of plans and expectations? How can you find joy in the changes?
