Ignoring out feelings doesn’t mean those feelings will go away. At various Lings within the lifespan, there may have not been a capacity to meet the intensity of certain experiences as we quite literally are hardwired for connection. If those connections aren’t safe, we learn to place our experience on the back burner.

Leave it to the full moon to draw forth the deepest undercurrent for processing and metabolizing.

If you’re noticing amplified dreams or feelings, it’s not a bad thing. It means there’s an emergent capacity to feel your feelings for processing and integration.

Trust yourself and your path. If you need support, reach out for help. There’s several eager therapists who are honored and willing to share the journey with you.

Jung spoke to the anima, animus (male and female) aspects and qualities within us. Shedding the gender norms and expectations of what it means to be male and female through societal constructs, there’s an energetic quality associated with each. Taking a moment to pause and I introspect for a moment if possible, what do you notice about your connection to masculine and feminine qualities?

Without judgment, what does you notice about your relationship to each quality within? Tracking some of the narratives and feelings associated? What comes up for you as you explore this experience?

Winnicotts theory explained the Mother’s gaze plays a crucial role in the infant’s development by acting as a mirror, reflecting the infant’s developing sense of self. This “mirror-role” of the mother’s eyes helps the infant feel real and alive, contributing to the formation of a stable sense of self.

How do you see children receiving their developmental needs when Mothers are feeling distressed, anxious, depressed or overwhelmed?

The cultural tone for how mothers are treated directly correlates to a child’s sense of well-being. How does this set up our future generations and collective shared spaces?

Fortunately the brain is malleable. We are always learning, growing and evolving but not without great intention, practical resources and time. The defensive structures that step in to protect such fragility may take time to stand down and result in prolonging healing. Defensive rolls serve to protect and they may also be limiting.

The cultural tone and narrative towards women and primary caregivers must be considered which not only impact an overall sense of well-being but directly impact our future generations. Please proceed with compassion and care to the best of your abilities during such a vulnerable stage of life 🍊

Human purpose and soul intent are often conversations that income the therapy room.

The human form originates from preconceived dream, into reality. A space of nothingness turned into a home for conception and creation.

Part of the human experience is being a conduit of dream and spirit which is not quantifiable tangibly, yet may be so with time. Meaning; how are you a conduit for your dream to manifest? Are you in touch with the quiet voice of the soul? Are you listening and actively bringing your hearts vision into reality ? If not, I get curious about obstacles preventing connection.

Exploring cultural narratives and messages taught through upbringing and exploring possibilities. If something feels off, do you feel open to exploring it or bound to “shoulds”?

A gentle glimpse into some of the possibilities psychotherapy has to offer. A beginning of possibilities, hope and creating what feels in alignment with your soul path.

May you be happy, may you be free from suffering and may you be well 💎

Individualism tells us that we’re separated through we’re genuinely interdependent upon one another. I observe workers delivering packages, serving food, shinning a spot light on performers, advising expertise and contributing to our shared experiences upon this earth.

Individualization is a stage in development where we acknowledge how we are separate from our caregivers. It’s what propels us into the world to give, serve, be and do. The thread that motivates how we wish to show up in the world. You may call that a soul path or discovering who you are meant to be in the lifetime.

Collectivism is the web and net that supports and holds us. It’s how we recognize our own humanity and vulnerabilities. It brings us into contact with what it is to be ALIVE. Human beings are most vulnerable when they are alone and isolated.

This country has allowed us our independence, our freedom and liberties. The native people that resided upon this land have suffered gravely as well as our BIPOC populations. On a land that is “meant to be for me and you”, my hope is we can see the self in another. That it’s possible to bridge the gap we’ve been taught to defend against.

Immigrants aren’t our enemies. We are all immigrants that reside upon a land that is not our own (unless you are Native American and your ancestors resided here pre Christopher Columbus).

A reminder to cultivate compassion towards those seeking a better life. Who want to build a future and be safe just as we are asking for when we rise each day to be in community. We couldn’t live without each other and all serve a purpose here.

May you remember your humanity and the light that dwells within another. If you’ve forgotten it, may you be reminded of it intermittently through your day.

Liberation, freedom and healthcare for all please 🙏🌈🤲🌼

When your nervous system is in fight or flight, which can definitely correlate to capitalism, it’s more challenging for spirit and intuition to arise. If we’re too busy, trying to Chase or meet or do something, that energy may sometimes hinder the intuitive insight that lead may us along the path that serves our highest good. There truly is a dance between the mind and the heart.

if you have been in a perpetual cycle of fighter flight, it can be challenging to slow down. Knowing that it can be challenging, doesn’t mean that it’s impossible. It takes consciously becoming aware of the ways for which you can identify staying engaged in fight flight and actively cultivating intention to slow down. It is a process and sometimes it might not feel safe to slow down. with time and intention It becomes easier than eventually automatic. It takes becoming aware and setting intentions to cultivate change.
