So many people think OCD is “just” about cleanliness, organization, or being particular. But videos like this show what OCD can really look like — especially the lesser-known subtype of moral scrupulosity.

This form of OCD isn’t about being “extra moral” or having strong values. It’s about intrusive, unwanted thoughts and an overwhelming fear of being a bad person, doing something wrong, or causing harm without meaning to. It’s exhausting, isolating, and often invisible from the outside.

If you’ve ever wondered whether OCD can look like this — the answer is yes. And you’re not alone. With the right support and treatment, these thought patterns can get better.

And thanks to the dear friend who passed this along!!

🌌 Sometimes life feels like being stuck in a dark tunnel. It’s easy to forget that tunnels aren’t endless—they always lead somewhere.

(Unless it's the Tunnel to Nowhere; and even then, it leads to somewhere!)🌌

Keep moving forward. The light is closer than you think. ✨

🌿 Therapy in the wild...

Today’s nature-based session took place beneath the limbs of a golden larch tree — a luminous green glow tucked quietly into the UT Gardens. ✨🍃 Magic showed up, as it so often does when we pause and listen to the natural world.

You never know what healing surprises are waiting out there. 🌞🌲💫

“Scatter your flowers over the graves, and walk away.
Be good-natured and untidy in your exuberance.”

Had a client share this quotation with me, and I loved the conversation it sparked.

While we’re wired to be concerned about what others think (*cough cough* social species *cough cough*), it’s not a bad idea to dig into what makes us prioritize some peoples’ opinions over others’.

Good food for thought😉

Studies have shown that spending time in the forest, what the Japanese call shinrin-yoku, can significantly improve mood and reduce stress. Here's how to reap these benefits on your next hike.
