Took my daughter out yesterday to thank her taking care of my dad for the last 10 days (straight) and over the last two months since he went on hospice.

I’m amazed at the size of her generosity and heart to care for a dying relative.

Thank you, Chickie!!

What do you see? I’m I upset, pi**ed off or sad?

Nope, this is just my normal face.

Some called it resting bitch face. I don’t really like that term because it’s not accurate, and it’s hurtful in so many ways.

This is me without trying to please the outside world.

I was born with the facial muscles that I can’t change. Well, I suppose I could get plastic surgery or use fillers. That seems extreme to me.

I’m learning to love myself through all lenses especially the ones where I stop trying to people please.

I often fawn, I put energy into other people’s feelings before my own when I’m stressed, anxious or sometimes it’s just habit.

However, this is me, content with muscles I was born with. I’m accepting all of me even if it doesn’t please you or make you feel more comfortable.

I’m making myself whole for me so I can be a contributing member of our society and not be burnt out.

It takes energy to seem happy, and I think my energy for this requires a break.

Be you, unapologetically.

Earlier this year I went on a shamanic healing journey and within that I confirmed my need for travel and fun.

I often travel for work but enjoy myself just the same. Today I’m a traveling for FUN!!

Live your life! Discover what fuels your soul and remember to have fun!

P.S. I even traveled with my .io headset (around my neck) I’m on a 9 day streak and want to keep it going. It’s helping me with focus and motivation.

One year ago this month, my parents moved back to Pennsylvania after 50+ years.

The year has brought joy mixed with challenges. My parent's health was poor when they moved here, so we quickly had to move my mother into memory care while my dad endured numerous hospital stays.

By late last year, my mother went into hospice care, with her health rebounding a bit. She’s up for her 6-month review, but she will likely stay in hospice care. Dementia has taken its brutal toll. Most times, she remembers me, but there are times she thinks I’m her twin sister who died several years ago.

My father was the second to go on hospice in March. The hospice team has been excellent, especially in allowing my father to stay in his independent apartment just down the hall from his wife.

The last six months took a toll on me as well. Watching my parent age and slowly diminish in energy, health, and mood, is hard to witness. On the flip side, I’m honored to be a part of their team of caretakers.

For a while, I was the primary caretaker, and it became overwhelming quickly. I needed help but did not know how to ask for it, as my norm was to take on all responsibility.

I had to take myself out of my autopilot caretaker mode. But how? Well, the universe works in mysterious ways; I soon found myself on a shamanic retreat in February and then another level last month.

In those two weeks and lots of intense exercises, I finally began the work to change from beliefs that didn’t serve me, exposed my shadows, learned how to say no and know my boundaries, and how to have fun (yes, that one was hard for me to relearn) and confirm my soul’s purpose. And so much more.

All these helped me become a better daughter, friend, lover, caretaker, and human being.

Ah life, with its infinite surprises!

My parents moving back to PA was just what we all needed. 💜💜💜

When you spent the last seven days immersed in a deeply healing shamanic experience that brought out rivers of tears, physical and emotional releases, you get ice cream. Or at least I do!

Just another step on my healing journey. Thank you to all who participated, supported and facilitated this past week.

I’m more grounded. I found peace amongst the chaos and learned to love myself unconditionally. Plus, my soul’s purpose was confirmed. (Yes, it’s craniosacral. 🥰)

The more I heal, the more the universe heals as we are all connected. Can’t wait to get back to work. 💆🏼‍♀️

My Story

I am a licensed massage therapist, CranioSacral practitioner, certified hypnotherapist, and certified yoga instructor in the heart of the Main Line. My practice offers a variety of modalities that focus primarily on alleviating the physical effects of Anxiety and Stress for clients. Those who suffer from anxiety disorders or high-stress lives feel aches and pains often due to the build-up of tension in the tissues (muscles, connective tissue, fascia). Headaches, upper back, shoulder and neck pain, and sleep disorders or concentration issues are some of the most common side-effects of anxiety. At Katy Kern Restoratives, I focus on your needs to help relieve pain and tension. I offer education for at-home self-massage and other self-care treatments to help you reduce chronic pain. Virtual lessons and sessions are also available.
