When the days get short and cold, our nervous system naturally shifts.
Our mood dips.
Our energy softens.
Our body asks for slowness… but our culture still pushes for productivity.

That mismatch is what creates the overwhelm, the heaviness, the “why am I like this?” spiral.

This is why tending to your mind and body in winter isn’t indulgent—it’s protective.
It keeps your emotional resilience intact.
It helps your hormones stabilize.
It prevents burnout from taking root in the dark.

Support yourself by choosing one act of warmth:
✨ a grounding tea ritual
✨ candlelight instead of harsh bulbs
✨ a walk that reconnects you to your breath
✨ blankets without guilt
✨ saying no to what drains your life-force

We’ve been told for years that mental health is only about brain chemistry—like your emotions exist in a vacuum, separate from your body, your relationships, your energy, and your daily choices.

But here’s what I’ve seen over and over:
You can take the meds, do the talk therapy, breathe, journal, meditate…
and still feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained.

Not because you’re “broken.”
But because your boundaries are exhausted.

When you keep saying yes out of guilt…
When you ignore the knot in your stomach…
When you let people take more than you actually have to give…
When your nervous system never gets to exhale…

No amount of coping skills can compete with that.

This is one of the biggest myths in mental health:
That healing is only internal.
That it lives only “in your head.”

But healing is also how you protect your energy.
How you honor your body’s limits.
How you stop abandoning yourself to stay “nice,” “useful,” or “easy to love.”

This is why I moved out of the traditional psychotherapy model and into a holistic empowerment coaching approach.
Because true healing requires a bigger lens—one that includes:
✨ your emotions
✨ your boundaries
✨ your energy
✨ your body
✨ your lifestyle
✨ your inner truth

If you’ve ever wondered why you’re doing “all the right things” but still feel drained… this is usually the missing piece.

This is a main pillar of the work I do with women how are ready to put themselves first. Visit my website www.drkimandrews.com to schedule a consult with me.

“Hi, I’m Dr. Kim Andrews 🌿 and I’m so excited to reintroduce myself.

For years I worked within the traditional model of psychotherapy. And while it helped many, I couldn’t ignore what I saw missing…

Clients were often given labels and medications but not given the tools to understand why they felt the way they did. The old models are broken, and I no longer want to be a part of a system that is about managing symptoms or prescriptions.

In the traditional model there is little space for the body, for emotions stored deep inside, for the food we eat, the energy we carry, or the ways our daily choices shape our mental health.

I realized healing isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about addressing the root. It’s about connecting mind, body, and spirit so we don’t just cope, we thrive.

That’s why I working to create "Better Than Therapy" - Holistic Mental Health Coaching. A space for women who are ready to trust themselves, release old patterns, and feel vibrant again. Are you showing up, handling responsibilities, and doing all the right things.....But inside you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected. I see you and I want you to know life does not have to be this way.

Here you’ll find tools for mental health coaching, emotional wellness, mindfulness, somatic healing, natural remedies, and energy work.

👉 Have you ever felt “stuck” in the medical model of mental health? Share below—I’d love to hear your experience.

“Befriending Your Anxiety” This group is specifically designed to provide support and guidance for women who are looking to better understand and manage their anxiety. The first group will be held on Zoom on January 30, 2024 at 7pm.

There are two spots available in the group if you know of anyone that would be interested please pass on this information, and tell them to contact me. This is the first time I'm running this program, and because it's a beta round, I'll be offering it at a highly discounted rate, in exchange for your feedback.

1. Understanding Anxiety: We will discuss what anxiety is and what it is not, it's common triggers, and how it manifests in our lives. By gaining a deeper understanding of anxiety, we can begin the process of befriending it.

2. Exploring Trauma: Together, we will explore the impact of trauma on the nervous system and how it relates to anxiety. This knowledge will empower you to address underlying issues that contribute to your anxious experiences.

3. Nervous System Regulation: I will introduce breathwork and meditation practices that can help regulate the nervous system. These techniques can be powerful tools in managing anxiety and promoting overall well-being.

4. Engaging Discussions: Our group sessions foster an environment where open discussions are encouraged. You'll have the opportunity to share your experiences, ask questions, and learn from others who are on a similar journey.

I believe that by coming together as a group of supportive women, we can navigate through our anxieties with greater ease and understanding.

If you have any questions or need further information about the group or upcoming sessions, please don't hesitate to reach out. I am here to assist you every step of the way!

I am very excited to introduce my new group program called "Befriending Your Anxiety," designed specifically for women who are seeking support in finding freedom from their anxiety. This is the first time I'm running this program, and because it's a beta round, I'll be offering it at a highly discounted rate, in exchange for your feedback.

The six-week small group program is carefully crafted to help you gain confidence, ease, and trust in yourself while navigating the challenges that anxiety can bring. As the facilitator I will guide you through various techniques and strategies that have proven effective in helping my clients to gain relief from anxiety.

By joining "Befriending Your Anxiety," you will have the opportunity to connect with other like-minded women who share similar experiences. The supportive group environment allows for open discussions, sharing of personal insights, and learning from one another's journeys.

Throughout the program, we will explore practical tools and exercises that can be implemented in your day-to-day life. These resources aim to empower you with skills to better understand your anxiety triggers, develop coping mechanisms, and ultimately foster a healthier relationship with anxiety.

If you are looking for this type of support I encourage you to email me for more information. The group will be starting the end of January and spaces are limited as I want to ensure each participant receives personalized attention and support. If you know someone who may benefit from this group please pass on the information. Hope to hear from you.

The New Moon in Scorpio tonight!!!

New Moons are always a time of new beginnings, I think that is why I really love the new moon. This new moon is all about transformation, breakthroughs and going deep within.

This new moon is asking us to let go of whatever it is that is holding us back, so that we can see. This is the perfect time to delve into some shadow work. This however, is not going to feel comfortable, the scorpion energy is available to you. It will help you, by offering bravery and it's stubbornness to help you go deeper even with the feelings of being uncomfortable.

Really you want to look at what is still in your life, bit you know it really needs to go.

The intensity to purge right now, get rid of what no longer serves you. (I spent time this weekend getting rid of all kinds of stuff. It felt amazing!)

Take some time this week and really look at what needs to go whether it is physical, emotional or spiritual. This will give you the space to allow in what needs to.
