Ep72 | How to Rewire Your Nervous System

May 12 2024 22 mins

Rewiring your nervous system and learning to bring presence to the moment doesn’t happen while you’re in crisis — it’s something you practice before the big game, so your body can begin to learn new ways to respond to triggers. Practicing while you’re feeling steady grows your capacity to bring these tools to life when you’re not. In today's episode we talk about s

Ep71 | Never Going to Bed Angry is a Myth

May 05 2024 51 mins

We often try to ease fear, anger and anxiety by unloading our feelings and seeking resolution with others. Sometimes this is helpful, but sometimes it isn’t. When we’re feeling big feelings, it’s important to map our current patterns and conditioned responses, to regulate our nervous systems, and to seek reality checks from loved ones who have the time and energy — leaning

Ep70 | Forcing a Fit (and Alternatives That Feel Better)

Apr 28 2024 43 mins

There are so many clues our bodies give us when things are off, and when they’re just right. Learning to tap into this wisdom helps you design a life that feels better, and relationships that serve your highest good. Like Goldilocks, you know when porridge is too hot, too cold, or just right — and you can train your system to orient you toward that same easeful clarity in life

Apr 21 2024 46 mins

If you’ve been conditioned to lean into stress, drama, and unhelpful emotional acceleration...you’re in good company! And you might find yourself desiring more feelings of peace and stability. Embracing where you’re at today is key when it comes to compassionately rewiring your system for a healthier life and happier relationships. In today's episode we talk about our ex

Ep68 | Being With the Things We Can't Change

Apr 14 2024 42 mins

When icky or anxious circumstances arise and you’re powerless to do anything to change them — what’s your pattern? What’s your go-to method for management and relief through the feelings that come up? There is much healing to be found in these patterns, and body-based tools you can practice to learn to be with any circumstances. In today's episode we talk about some o

Ep67 | Managing Emotional Bonfires

Apr 07 2024 30 mins

When we’re in pain or experiencing emotional turmoil, it’s pretty standard practice for humans to cast around for yet more pain to fuel the fire — we keep adding logs until we have a raging bonfire that shows no signs of burning out. What if we were to burn through one log at a time instead? What if we felt all those feelings fully, without piling more on top? In today'

Ep66 | Establishing Boundaries with Love

Mar 31 2024 54 mins

Many of us have only experienced boundaries drawn in mean and aggressive ways; many of us have experienced boundaries not being drawn at all, and; many, many of us have trouble expressing our own boundaries in helpful, loving ways. “Boundary-muscles” need to be grown like any other, and taking stock of your own experiences with boundaries supports the process. In today's e

Ep65 | The Clues Your Body Gives You

Mar 24 2024 69 mins

When you’re feeling low, heavy, unhealthy or uninspired — you have patterns for that. You have patterns for joy, expansiveness, feeling abundant, and healthy connection too. Learning what you’ve grown acclimatized to — and what would feel better than that — is key in moving beyond patterns that are no longer helpful, so you can grow into a more fulfilling life & relat

Ep64 | Personally Attacked! The Power in Reactivity and Being Seen

Mar 17 2024 56 mins

In 2024, feeling “personally attacked” can mean being seen in a good way, or being exposed in a way that gets our backs up. In either case, there’s so much gold for us here if we’re willing to look for it. Discovering what we protect and defend is a call to go deeper in relationship with these aspects of ourselves and our communities. “Personal attacks” can be key oppor

Ep63 | Energy 101 — How to Generate More Energy & Raise Your Vibe

Mar 10 2024 39 mins

Some things generate energy for us, and some don’t — think people, places, actions and mindsets. Some might raise our energy one day, and feel neutral or tire us out the next. With so much happening in and outside of us all the time, it helps to notice what brings us energy and “raises our vibration” from moment to moment so we can give ourselves more of what we need to mak
