𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴.

I am still sitting with the beauty of the “Healing Happens in Connection” event I held last Saturday. Brave and incredible women joined me for a full day of looking inward, befriending our nervous systems, and honoring the parts of ourselves that have been carrying the load for so long.

We spent the day moving out of the “busy mind” and into the wisdom of the body. The room was filled with such profound vulnerability and grace.

We also dove into one of the most vital tools I teach: The difference between speaking FROM a part and speaking FOR a part.

When we speak from a part, we are blended—we are the anger, we are the anxiety, and we move into reaction. But 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘄𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁—inviting it to sit in the room with us rather than driving the bus—everything shifts. 𝗪𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗺 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿.

We talked about how much energy it takes to stay grounded when we encounter others who are speaking from their own reactive parts.

It was an “aha!” moment for the group: realizing that 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗲 isn’t about shutting others out; it’s about maintaining the boundary between our own selves and the parts that get triggered by the world around us.

I am so deeply proud of the courage in the room on Saturday.

Want to stay in the loop for future workshops and somatic resources?

I love creating spaces where we can learn and grow together. To make sure you’re the first to hear about upcoming groups and teachings, please 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀𝗹𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 here: https://growingharmonywithin.com/JoinMailingList.html

Thank you for being part of this community. Sometimes, the most important thing we can do for our healing is to simply 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽, 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲.

We spend so much energy bracing against ourselves.

We brace against the tension in our bodies, we brace against the sadness, and we brace against the memories that feel too big to hold. It’s exhausting, isn’t it?

That constant, unconscious effort to keep it all under control takes a massive toll on our nervous system.

When we turn toward those braced places with compassion rather than judgment, we finally have the space to release the energy that’s been trapped for so long.

This is the heart of what we’ll be doing at Healing Happens in Connection on April 11th. If you’re ready to stop the internal bracing and start finding your calm aliveness, I invite you to join us.

Ever feel like your body is telling a story your mind hasn’t caught up with yet?

That flutter in your chest when you walk into a crowded room… the sudden fatigue after a difficult conversation… the way your shoulders tense when certain memories surface.

These aren’t random glitches—they’re your body’s way of communicating what words cannot.

Somatic Experiencing helps us listen to this bodily wisdom. It’s not about analyzing or fixing, but about gently noticing and allowing your nervous system to complete what it couldn’t in moments of overwhelm. Like helping a frightened animal gradually relax into safety, we learn to regulate from the inside out.

What body sensations have you noticed speaking to you lately?
