This photo of me in Iceland really speaks to my nature worship heart …. I can feel my very being drawn to and connected with earth, my breathe expanded and voluminous, my senses heightened and aware, and I am oriented and planted in my space…. I invite you to find spaces that can deepen your emotional regulation to yourself through Mother Nature

A gentle invitation …. I know I have to remind myself of this even as a practicing counsellor… all we have is our compassion and humanity to allow our eyes, hearts and souls to see behind and under the surface…

We heal and grow IN connection to each other

I welcome you to one of “At the Barns” waterfalls and one of the spaces that we get the privilege of being in in our nature based sessions…
One of the practices we do “At the Barn” is called ORIENTING
It can be a powerfully simple in the moment practice that can restore our ventral vagal capacity (our rest and restore, ourselves back into a tolerant window of capacity).
I invite you to find a moment today and feel free to visit with my video my waterfall if nature energises you and you are indoors today …
Take a moment to gently allow yourself to notice how your body feels when it’s here at the waterfall or wherever you are. Don’t go past the intention to slow down and be with the moment - your moment of self-care. What do you notice? can you feel an ease in constricted parts, does your breathe deepen, do emotions surface, do muscles relax, does your heart rate slow, does curiosity return, does the flow of the water allow a more fluid feeling in you, can you feel your jaw loosen, your throat muscles ease.
Stay here as long as you need - you are so very welcome and you matter and are so very valuable ….. be kind to yourself and each other ❤️ it’s all we have 👏

A powerful affirmation for you today…. We are all in a process throughout our day to day life of experiencing emotional rupture requiring repair and healing on a continuing basis. Take heart dear one that you can have hurting and healing present…. And you are still moving forward and living your life, loving those around you. Be gentle to yourself. ❤️repost by

I honestly think I spent a lot of my earlier life not even knowing what a boundary was… furthermore that even if I had a vague sense of it’s literal definition that I somehow was not deserving of them in my life. What I have come to know in a felt and lived sense is that I was disowning all my needs to allow others to obliterate my sacred inner spaces. My empathic nature was reserved for others .. not for myself. Exploring with curiosity our early messaging, meaning making, attachments, and life experiences is so very critical to us flourishing and being able to stand in our own boundaries. I invite you to find someone that can take you back to reclaiming what was always your right to possess. Repost from ourmindfullife.com

When we start to recognise how our bodies communicate and illuminate our bodily nervous systems highways as signposts directing us to remember, allow and process what our minds and thoughts cannot resolve alone with behaviour modification and brain rewriting we can start to live an embodied wholehearted life 👏.

This is a beautiful reminder …. I had the opportunity to watch two sunrises on the weekend … I cannot tell you how fundamentally nourishing it was to just notice burnt crimson hues, whales breaching, gentle onshore breeze touching my skin, a hot Cup of sweet tea in my hands, my favourite jumper with all its memories warming and holding me. There was no purpose to it at all other than it was something I love to do. FOR ME … I invite you to find your FOR ME space this week repost from equine_guidance

Noticing with all of our senses and allowing curiosity for new more nourishing patterns within our nervous system is powerful. We don’t always have to be the same flavour - you can be vanilla and chocolate chip !! It is not abandoning all the old for split new - it is accepting and adapting both old and new patterns to find their new rhythm and dance. repost by

Introducing “BEAR” 🐻… he is a 6 year old male Shetland who has captured our hearts here at the barn …. New beginnings after we tragically lost our heart horse “Dante” a month ago. Choosing to love “Bear” for his unique self with our arms wide open and our hearts exposed. And appreciative and grateful for the chance to love, form and bond with him ….

Somatic self-care is so very important in our daily practice…. I hope this is encouraging and feels achievable … 🙏🙏

Making sense and order and micro managing controlling of our emotions and sensations limits the full experience of how they want to evolve, to surface, to travel, to track through our nervous systems and bodies allowing us personal growth and expansion. It can cause our fight, flight, and freeze responses to really go on alert. AND that is totally normal and makes sense. BUT sometimes our responses emotionally and on a sensation level are sending us mixed or misattuned, out of context cues that are not serving our being connected to ourselves and others because it wasn’t safe growing up . Because of what has happened to you…. There is nothing wrong with you … it’s just time to attend to getting the emotions and sensations to be in the present not the past and what we have experienced. I encourage and invite you to find a therapist/counsellor who can help you back to curiosity, emotional wholeheartedness and connection to your emotions and sensations. It is the bravest most important work you will ever do darling one ❤️
