We often talk about setting boundaries with other people, but it is important to set boundaries for yourself too.

The main goal is to protect your time and energy.

Setting boundaries helps you prioritize yourself by being present for what is important to you. It also helps you live in alignment with your own values. 🙏

The famous poet Mary Oliver posed this question in a poem she wrote over 30 years ago. Somehow recently, l've been thinking about it a lot and have found myself discussing it with a couple of my patients. I think it has resonated more with me this past year since l've lost several family members as well as navigated a child's illness. I have been reminded about the finite amount of time we all have on this planet.

The good part of all this loss is that you realize what really matters, and that our lives are meant to be seized.

My answer to the poet is simply this:

Mary, I plan to live! I want to seize every moment of joy as well as be present for the sadness. I want to embrace it all. I want to travel to foreign lands and learn about other cultures. I also want to be still and present for all of the small sacred moments that happen locally, the good and the bad experiences of my family and friends.

I want to continue to support the incredible patients who share the gifts of their stories with me. I plan to continue to laugh whole heartedly but also share the quiet moments of truly listening to others. I want to continue to live passionately, embrace the messiness of life and love with my whole heart.

How do you plan on living your one wild and precious life?🙏 (photo credit Sari Lifsh*tz)

My advice for today is to follow your intuition. We all have a "gut instinct,," a sense of knowing what is the right thing for us to do. For example, we know immediately when we meet people whether they are good for us or not. The night I met my husband, my first thought after meeting him was that he was going to be a pivotal person in my life.
Similarly, when I first met my best friend, I instantly thought of the word home. She felt familiar to me, even though we had never met before. On a different note, I also have had intuition that has told me relationships didn't feel safe. I would have a feeling of danger that I quickly tried to rationalize and quiet.
Every time I have ignored those initial feelings, I later grew to regret it. Whether it is with a job, a friendship, or a potential partner, trust your gut. Your intuition is magic.
Xoxo, Alyson

Here is your permission to take a risk!
3 years ago I took my risk and wrote a book: No Perfect Love. I had been counseling people for over 25 years at the time but that was the easy part. What I shared with my patients has always been personal, intimate and authentic. I tried to write my book the same way. The hard part for me was the public promoting it. I am not naturally a self promoting person and it felt awkward. I felt like people would think "who does she think she is?" | did my best to put myself out there through social media, and book signings. Over time, I stopped. Life went on. My patients and friends bought it and were incredibly complementary and generous. I stopped talking about it and promoting it. It was just something I did in the past.
However, in the past couple of days two different people reached out to me and shared with me how much my book has been helping their friends and neighbors. I was so grateful to hear that and honored that this book still has the power to do good in the world. So here is my advice for you today, if you are thinking of taking a risk and doing something creative, just do it. It doesn't have to be a best seller to impact people in a positive way and you never know years later who it will continue to inspire!

With Valentines Day coming up it may seem the rest of the world is celebrating their romances and making pronouncements of love. For whatever reason you may be suffering. It could be because a relationship just ended, or you have learned of a betrayal in your life, or you have suffered another type of unthinkable loss such as a health crisis or a child's illness or death. If you find yourself suffering heartbreak now, know that you are not alone. Almost every adult suffers a deep heartbreak at some point in their lives.
When we emerge on the other side of it we are often changed forever. Sometimes in a good way, we are more compassionate, kinder and more capable of empathy for others. Other times we realize that we have the capacity to live through a tremendous amount of pain. Here are some suggestions to help you navigate the early days of heartbreak.
