Emotional Hangovers

Emotional hangovers happen after we process, expel, release, and feel intense, usually overpowering emotions.

Emotional hangovers can happen when we are stressed, anxious, depressed, burnt out, suffering from compassion fatigue, overwhelmed, grieving, feeling trapped and stuck in life.

Committing to you

Self-care has become just another thing to check off our to-do lists. Because we have lost the soul in self-care. We have forgotten the purpose of why we participate in acts of self-love. We are learning to love ourselves. If we are not at our best, we cannot do our best work, support those we love or thrive. We sell ourselves and the world short when we neglect to tend to ourselves.

Returning energy and cutting cords

Cutting the cords is a way to release our energetic connections to others. Often times cutting cords is the last thing we need to do, often times we only need to set the intention and mindful call ourself back and give other's energy permission to leave.

Dealing with trauma: Yours and someone else's

We all handle pain, trauma, loss and tragedy differently. Some of us are profoundly affected. Moved beyond words. Some of us, stuff away, pretend that life is the same. Some of us are moved to outrage, yelling and fighting for social changes, and some become defensive against those who disagree with our ideas of what will make the world a better place.
