People pleasing is more than having difficulty saying no or wanting to keep the peace.

There are patterns underneath those learned behaviors that are worth exploring.

I am an energy girl. I love it, and I probably won't ever stop talking about it. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I was blown away that I didn't learn we had an โ€œenergy bodyโ€ until I was in my 30s. Seriously, why don't they teach this stuff in school?!

Learning about the chakra system gave me another way to understand myself - why certain patterns kept showing up, where I felt disconnected, and what my body and energy might be trying to communicate.

But I also don't believe everything can be solved by โ€œbalancing your chakras.โ€

We are layered. Our energy, nervous system, beliefs, emotions and behaviors all influence each other.

And awareness is only part of it. Eventually, we have to practice something different.

If you're curious about your own energy, I created a FREE Ultimate Chakra Guide that breaks down all 7 chakras, what they represent, signs you may be out of balance, and simple ways to support each one.

I've become a big believer in the power of healing in community.

So, back by popular demand, The Return is returning. ๐Ÿค

On Tuesday, September 15th, Corrie and I are creating a candlelit space where you don't have to talk, perform, figure anything out, or even know what you need.

We'll weave together sound healing, Reiki, and guided meditation to help you slow down, settle into your body, and reconnect with yourself. Just 90 minutes to let yourself be held for a change.

The Return
Tuesday, Sept 15th at 6:30 PM

Space is limited. ๐Ÿค

I bet you know what you need to do.

Move your body.
Eat healthier.
Drink less.
Go to bed earlier.
Stop saying yes to everything.
Make some time for yourself.

I donโ€™t think itโ€™s a lack of knowledge. The problem is that by the time youโ€™ve worked, taken care of everyone, handle the appointments, answer the text, figured out dinner, kept the peace, and done all the other invisible things that you do every dayโ€ฆ Youโ€™re energy is depleted. ๐Ÿซ 

And most times we look at our life thatโ€™s objectively pretty good and thinkโ€ฆ โ€œWhy canโ€™t I just be happy? Whatโ€™s wrong with me?โ€

So now youโ€™re not only exhausted, youโ€™re also feeling guilty for being exhausted ๐Ÿ™„

Iโ€™ve been thinking a lot about the gap between knowing what we need and actually being able to live it. Because more information, or another podcast or self-help book isnโ€™t always the answer.

Sometimes we need to understand whatโ€™s happening underneath the pattern - and learn how to respond differently weโ€™re actually IN it.

Iโ€™m creating a free workbook around this, and before I finish it, I want to make sure itโ€™s something women actually need.

If this sounds like something you would benefit from, comment ME below and Iโ€™ll make sure you get the details when itโ€™s ready!

And if youโ€™re comfortable sharing, tell me: whatโ€™s the thing you KNOW would make you feel better, but you still canโ€™t seem to make it stick?

Curious about a Shamanic Reiki session?!

You get comfortable, close your eyes, and allow yourself to receive. โœจ I use Reiki along with shamanic practices and rhythmic drumming music to help you move out of the busy, analytical mind and into a deeper, more inward state. Itโ€™s lovely!

And sometimes, interesting things come up there.

Some people experience seeing colors or images. You might remember something you havenโ€™t thought about in years. You might feel emotional releases happening in your body. You might receive an intuitive message or a symbol that does not make sense in the moment, but it clicks later on. You may even encounter an animal, which is actually pretty common in shamanic journeying. Or you might just feel incredibly relaxed and lighter!

Thereโ€™s no right way to experience a session, and you donโ€™t have to be spiritual, intuitive, or good at meditating for it to work. โ˜บ๏ธ

We spend so much time trying to think our way through things, but Shamanic Reiki allows our subconscious to do the work for us.

And despite my enthusiastic hand gestures, I do not personally play the drums ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿช˜

I was reminded of this in meditation this morning.

Thereโ€™s a difference between โ€œthis feels awfulโ€ and โ€œthis is the wrong decision.โ€

One of the hardest parts of learning to trust yourself is realizing that discomfort isnโ€™t always a warning sign.

Sometimes you set the right boundary and feel guilty afterward.

Sometimes you make the right decision and someone you love is disappointed.

Sometimes you leave something youโ€™ve outgrown and still grieve it.

Sometimes your nervous system gets activated simply because youโ€™re doing something differently.

Weโ€™re so quick to interpret discomfort as "I made the wrong decision". But guilt doesn't mean you've done something wrong. Anxiety doesn't mean youโ€™ve done something wrong. Grief doesnโ€™t always mean you should go back.

Sometimes it just means this is HARD.

And learning to tell the difference between โ€œmy intuition is warning meโ€ and โ€œthis is uncomfortable because Iโ€™m breaking an old patternโ€ is a huge part of learning to trust yourself.

Maybe someone else needed this reminder today, too. ๐Ÿค

Reiki can feel a little mysterious if youโ€™ve never experienced it. And there are plenty of misconceptions about what actually happens in a session.

First, you donโ€™t have to โ€œbelieveโ€ in reiki.

Itโ€™s more than just relaxing.

And contrary to popular belief, your reiki practitioner is not a witch ๐Ÿ˜†and they are not the one healing you.

Together, we create the conditions that support your own healing (physically, emotionally, energetically, or sometimes in ways you werenโ€™t expecting).

And yes, youโ€™re absolutely allowed to show up skeptical ๐Ÿ˜‰

Maybe nothing is actually wrong.

You have people you love.
A life youโ€™ve worked hard to build.
Things you know you should be grateful for.

And you are grateful.

But thereโ€™s also this nagging feeling you canโ€™t seem to shakeโ€ฆ

๐‘บ๐’‰๐’๐’–๐’๐’…๐’โ€™๐’• ๐‘ฐ ๐’ƒ๐’† ๐’‰๐’‚๐’‘๐’‘๐’Š๐’†๐’“ ๐’•๐’‰๐’‚๐’ ๐’•๐’‰๐’Š๐’”?

You find yourself overthinking things that really shouldnโ€™t be that complicated. Youโ€™re second-guessing yourself more. Maybe you feel a little anxious or on edge.

And youโ€™re doing all the things. Going to work. Taking care of everyone. Keeping up with life. But if youโ€™re being honest, youโ€™re not really enjoying it the way you used to.

And thatโ€™s usually when the guilt creeps inโ€ฆ

๐‘พ๐’‰๐’‚๐’• ๐’…๐’ ๐‘ฐ ๐’†๐’—๐’†๐’ ๐’‰๐’‚๐’—๐’† ๐’•๐’ ๐’„๐’๐’Ž๐’‘๐’๐’‚๐’Š๐’ ๐’‚๐’ƒ๐’๐’–๐’•? ๐‘ด๐’š ๐’๐’Š๐’‡๐’† ๐’Š๐’” ๐’ˆ๐’๐’๐’….

I work with a lot of women who find themselves in this exact place.

Women who can explain their patterns, who have done a lot of healing, and who understand where their anxiety, people-pleasing or self-doubt comes from.

But understanding yourself and actually feeling different in your life are two different things.

There comes a point when knowing why you do what you do stops being the question. The question becomes: what do I want to do differently now?

Maybe you already understand yourself pretty damn well. The work now is noticing what doesnโ€™t fit anymore, being honest about what you actually want, and trusting yourself enough to start choosing differently.

That's what I built The Exhale Methodโ„ข for.

It's the framework behind my 1:1 coaching. Six stages, from establishing safety in your body and mind, to exploring your patterns without judgment, to finally aligning with who you actually are and living like it.

Not more insight. Movement.

Slowly creating a life that doesn't just look good from the outsideโ€ฆ

but actually feels like yours again.

If you've been thinking, "I should be happyโ€ฆ so why don't I feel like myself?" this is exactly the work I do with women in 1:1 coaching.

I only take a handful of clients at a time because this work is personal, not a program you move through on your own. Spots are limited right now.

Details + application are in my bio. ๐Ÿค
