Maybe you don’t need to carry it into the next chapter with you. ❤️

Sometimes we hold onto things long after the moment itself has passed.

Something someone said.
A mistake we made.
A relationship that ended.
An expectation that wasn’t met.
Anger we haven’t been able to release.
An old version of ourselves.
Something that happened to us.

And letting go doesn’t mean it didn’t matter.

It doesn’t mean you’re excusing what happened, forgetting it, or pretending it didn’t hurt.

Sometimes it simply means deciding:

I don’t want to keep carrying this everywhere I go.

Healing isn’t always about getting rid of the past. We can’t change what happened.

But we can work toward changing how much space it gets to occupy in our present.

So... you know that thing you’ve been carrying?

Yeah. That.

Maybe it’s time to put it down. ❤️

We've spent decades being afraid of fat. Meanwhile, the brain is an organ that depends heavily on it.

Omega-3 fatty acids—particularly EPA and DHA—have important roles in the body and brain. DHA is an important structural component of brain cell membranes, while omega-3s more broadly are involved in cell signaling and inflammatory processes.

Research has also examined the relationship between omega-3s and mood disorders, although nutrition isn't a substitute for appropriate mental healthcare.

What I want people to understand is the bigger principle:

Your brain is an organ.

It needs nutrients.

It needs sleep.

It needs movement.

It needs blood flow.

It needs recovery.

And yet we often talk about mental wellness as though the brain somehow operates independently from the rest of the body.

It doesn't.

That's the heart of this entire series: when we're curious about how we feel, we need to be curious about how the body is functioning too.

Would you like me to do a future post on food sources of omega-3s versus supplements? Let me know below.

Save this one for later, or share it with someone who's interested in supporting their brain health from the inside out.

In this week's episode of the Cultivate Calmness Podcast, Kaela explores a type of grief we don't always recognize: grieving someone we've never actually met. Reflecting on the 29th anniversary of Princess Diana's death, Kaela shares why Diana has held a special place in her heart for decades and how similarities between Diana's death and the loss of her own mother created a deeply personal connection. She discusses why celebrities, musicians, athletes, public figures, and others we've never personally known can still become meaningful parts of our lives—and why their deaths can produce very real feelings of loss. Kaela also reflects on what it means for families to grieve in the public eye and reminds us that grief can take many different forms, even when our connection to the person existed entirely from afar.

I’m going to be honest… life has been a little rough lately, and apparently my plants have receipts.🪴

Yellow leaves. Drooping stems. A couple casualties I’m probably going to have to officially call. 😬

They’ve been a little neglected.

And as I walked around my office giving everyone a VERY overdue drink today, I couldn’t help but think about how much this resembles taking care of ourselves.

Because taking care of yourself—and healing—can get tedious.

We know we’re supposed to sleep, eat well, drink water, move our bodies, manage our stress, go to therapy, set boundaries, make the appointment, rest…

And then life happens.

We’re overwhelmed. Work gets busy. The kids need something. Money is stressful. We’re taking care of everyone else. Or we’re simply exhausted from trying so hard for so long.

And some of those things start slipping.

I get it.

I’m a therapist AND a small business owner, and owning a small business right now is hard. There are days when I’m tired of doing all the things I’m supposed to be doing, too.

But here’s what my sad little office jungle reminded me today:

You don’t have to do everything perfectly to start tending to yourself again.

My plants didn’t need me to stand there feeling guilty about all their yellow leaves.

They needed water.

So I watered them.

And tomorrow? Most of them will probably look a little better.

Sometimes we need to approach ourselves the same way.

One meal.
One glass of water.
One walk.
One therapy session.
One earlier bedtime.
One boundary.
One moment to let your nervous system settle.

Then we do it again.

Healing and personal growth aren’t usually built through one giant breakthrough. They’re built through repeatedly giving ourselves what we need—even when we’ve gotten off track.

If you’ve stopped doing some of the things that were helping you, you haven’t lost your opportunity to start again.

Don’t spend all your energy staring at the yellow leaves.

Give yourself some water. Get some nourishment. Find a little rest. Take the next step.

Then keep going.

You’ve got this. Don’t give up.

And hopefully tomorrow my plants and I will both

Have you ever gone through a stressful season and wondered why you suddenly can't remember anything?

You lose your keys. Forget what you were saying mid-sentence. Read something three times before it actually registers.

Stress doesn't just affect your emotions. When your brain is using a lot of its resources responding to stress, attention and working memory can suffer too.

So before assuming you're simply "forgetful," consider what else your brain may be trying to manage.

Our mental and physical health are constantly influencing one another—and sometimes cognitive symptoms are one of the first places we notice it.

❤️ Little Things That Remind Me of You: August

August carries a lot of grief in my family.

There have been at least five deaths in my family during this month, including my grandpa and great-uncle, who died just five days apart while I was pregnant with my son.

There’s a picture I treasure from that time of my grandpa with his hand on my pregnant belly.

My son would eventually carry my great uncle’s name—something I wish I had gotten the chance to tell him before he died. ❤️

So yes, August has reasons to feel heavy.

Certain months, dates, seasons, smells, songs, places—even changes in the weather—can hold memories our minds and bodies seem to recognize before we even consciously think about them.

That’s part of grief.

But standing outside recording this, I also couldn’t ignore everything else August was giving me.

The sun was shining.

My garden was growing.

And apparently all 11 of my chickens decided they had VERY important contributions to make to my video. 😂🐓

There is still so much life happening here.

And I’ve realized I don’t want grief to have ownership over an entire month.

That doesn’t mean pretending the losses didn’t happen. It doesn’t mean I miss these people any less. And it definitely doesn’t mean we can simply “choose happiness” instead of grieving.

It means I can remember who I’ve lost and notice what I still have.

I can let August remind me of death and life.

Sadness and gratitude.

People I desperately wish were still here and the people, animals, places and little moments bringing me joy right now.

That’s one of the strange things about grief: as life continues, we learn to hold more than one thing at a time.

Finding something beautiful in a season that holds painful memories doesn’t diminish the people you lost.

So if a certain date, month or season feels particularly heavy for you, you don’t have to force yourself to make it positive.

But maybe you can leave a little room for something good to exist there, too. ❤️

What month, season, or date carries memories for you?
