Processing shock & trauma: A live experience
After being bitten by a dog unprovoked, I experienced acute stress disorder played out as anxiety and flashbacks that sparked feelings of dread, sent my temperature on a roller coster ride and left my mind racing. But after being reminded that I can control my experience, I remembered to ground, deepen my breath, and change my inner narrative. So, join in on another live emotional processing session for processing shock and trauma. Session starts around the 12:50 time marker.*Disclaimer: Be sure to seek professional help for any traumatic event that has become hard to carry or if acute stress turns into post traumatic stress. I offer gentle remote Reiki energy healing sessions to assist in calming the mind and body in conjunction with other medical help you receive.

34: What happens when you don't listen to your intuition?
We've all done it even if we didn't realize it at first; that hindsight being clearer vision AFTER we've done something that leads to more self-pain, self-neglect, or self-suffering. Could you have known before you made that decision or did that thing not to do it? The short answer: Yes, that's where building and trusting your intuition comes in. The long answer: it can be complicated if you're constantly doubting yourself or not listening to those inner nudges. In this episode, we explore the importance of intuition and self-trust and ways to build it while learning how to feel safe in your body again.

32: Exploring infinite human potential
What if we realized that we truly are infinite? That our realities don't have to stay the same, that molding our present and future is truly at the whim of our decisions? I probe this idea (that I believe more to be reality than not) of infinite human potential. The endless feelings, choices, desires, thoughts, etc. that any one of us can experience are limitless. So, let's discover more than once thought. This episode accompanies a new blog I've created called Scripted Worlds on Substack, where I write to philosophize, explore and create new worlds. Subscribe for weekly updates, ideas, and much more.
