Trauma doesn't have to define your life. Reclaim your power with somatic and energetic therapy

12/22/2024

I realize it’s been almost a year since I last posted. It’s a combination of time going fast, a full year, and also me taking a step back from social media, the news, and making a conscious effort to reflect on how I want to contribute to the world, and to post only when I have something that I find meaningful vs adhering to an algorithm that in my opinion creates noise.

I guess in a way, I’ve been going inward all year, much like the winter solstice is showing up for us to do during this time: a time of reflection, contemplation, regeneration, and slowing down.

To mark this occasion, we gathered in circle the other night to create a despacho, a living prayer of gratitude and a reminder that we are connected to all living things, and to set intentions for the future; planting seeds for ourselves and the generations who will come after us. Happy Winter Solstice! May we all remember that light exists even in the darkest night!

It's always great to hear feedback! Whatever it is, it helps everyone grow. Much gratitude for this message and to the women that show up every month in our Women in Transition circle! We are all mirrors of each other so whatever one of us is going through applies to us all. So, thank you to you, GB, for giving us the opportunity to see ourselves.

This month we met our judge, that voice that tries to protect us, but is also keeping us small. We talked to them and embraced them, and saw the power in that. The only way out is through!

Grateful to my fellow facilitator, Alona Pulde MD for the synergy, support, and co-creation.

Keeping it real! Hey everyone! 👋 Ever felt like the world around you is spinning or that you're on a merry-go-round that won't stop? That might be vertigo talking! This is not medical advice, but it's my recent experience with it. The feeling of nausea and motion sickness are some of the least favorite sensations for me, so see what has helped me deal with it!

🤔 What is Vertigo?
Vertigo is a type of dizziness where you feel like you're spinning or the world is spinning around you. It's not just a fear of heights – it's an actual sensation of movement. 😵

🚦 Causes:

Inner ear issues 🌪️
Migraines 🤕
Medication side effects 💊
Dehydration 🚰
Anxiety or stress 😓

👀 When to Seek Help:
If vertigo persists or worsens, it's time to chat with a healthcare pro. They can identify the root cause and guide you to the right treatment.

👂 Listen to Your Body:
Ignoring symptoms won't make them disappear. Take it easy, rest up, and prioritize self-care. Your well-being matters! 🌟

True story! One morning, I left some treats in my dog’s bowl while he was out on a walk with my husband (or the other way around, I don’t know who take who on walks!) so when they got back, Chi (the dog not the husband) was so excited to find them. It’s been a month maybe and now every single morning he comes back from his walk, he runs as fast as he can to the bowl to find…nothing. He moves on. Rinse and repeat, every morning. I watched him do it today as well and it dawned on me that there’s something I can learn from this experience. For him, every day is a new day and a new opportunity. It happened once, it can happen again. When it doesn’t, he moves on. And tomorrow is a new day! No disappointment, no judgment, just that. Showing up every day. That’s what I got from this experience. See what you get from it and feel free to share your insight. I’m curious!

The benefit of a coughing fit waking me up at 5am is being able to be with myself before the world wakes up and to take the time to appreciate:

The hot water on my body, helping my airways to relax
The hot tea soothing my throat
My body for everything that it has been through over the years
My body’s amazing ability of regenerate and recover
Breathing in and out, like a wave coming and going
The silence around me
The dark and the light of the candle
The light and the promise of hope
A star right outside the window and the last quarter of the moon
I am alive.

As we end this year and go into a new one, we may be urged to make plans, to do better, to try new things, to [fill in the blanks]. It’s natural to want to do better. At the same time, let’s notice the energy behind it. Is it from “not enough-ness” or from curiosity? Does it feel tight or expansive? It is ambition or play? And as we do this and embark on new paths, let’s remember that this is not our first rodeo. We have ancestral wisdom encoded in our DNA, we have gifts from the past (our own and our ancestors) and we have an inner voice that provides the guidance we need. We are supported! Happy New Year!

Once we see our shadow, we can claim our gold.
Thanks to Dharma Bum Temple for the pic.

Today, I happened to be in a wonderful shop with items from local artists, so I was already feeling inspired. Out the window, I see a man playing hopscotch and his partner clapping, with a big smile on her face! He ends the game with a kiss and then they continue on their way. Later, I come out and see this heart on the ground.

And I remembered that “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”

I‘m still smiling. Maybe you will too. ❤

Short body awareness practices meant to help re-build your connection with your body. They can be done any time during the day, but especially if you're having a busy day, these will give you a chance to come back to yourself.
