  • Stuck on the side of the Road, Peace in Forced Pause (meditation at the end for your pause)

    Life can definately have some unexpected twists. Those twists or blowouts can be a time to notice our thoughts and feelings inside our bodies. We can notice them with gentle awareness. It takes practice though. In this episode, I use my multiple events of being stuck on the side of the road to share how we can watch our thoughts and not let them carry us away. I hope this helps. I help overwhelmed humans especially moms shift from overwhelmed feelings to more alighned living. I use tools of breathwork, somatics, mindfulness and mindset to do this. I have a program that does just this. It makes life a little more manageable, it is a blueprint to find calm in our chaotic lives. If this seems interesting, please reach out. I love feedback and I love meeting you all. Your support and kind words are always appreciated! Ways to stay in touch:
