This little toddler is beyond adorable and a couple's therapist already. Listen to what she says after hearing her parents fight.

We are all trying to find our way through this. As the days pass you may find your initial plans and coping strategies changing, your moods and emotions more labile moment to moment. Be kind to yourself. We are a living a shared trauma, and worse, an ongoing one, where there is no clear end or outcome in sight.

Yesterday a friend shared a story from Pocket with me, originally written for the New Yorker in 2002. Before she died, the author Grace Paley wrote about some advice her father gave her. It's wonderful advice and so I want to share it with you. "The main thing," he said to her, "is this — when you get up in the morning you must take your heart in your two hands. You must do this every morning." When Grace asked him if this was a metaphor, he said, "no, put your hands on your heart and push a little, pat, stroke a little, don't be ashamed...then you must talk to your heart, talk softly, say anything, but be respectful.

I am going to practice this. This is one I can do, because a) it takes so little time, and, b) I instinctively feel the power of this simple gesture. My addition to the exercise will be to listen to what my heart whispers back, to hear what my heart needs, hear its wisdom, at the least, to hear its steady rhythmic pulsation and remember that this connects me with all living creatures everywhere, always.

From my heart to yours....

This message is directed to all the therapists in my network that work in a somatic therapy modality. A recent Core Energetics graduate and practitioner, currently in Core Postgrad training is conducting a very short (3 min) survey on race differences in their practice. I am hoping you can take a few minutes of your time to participate. Here is the link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/VND93TD
