24.01.2022 Just lovely and true

24.01.2022 So many great questions and comments about our first Unlocking Us podcast episode on FFTs (effing first times) and how hard it is to be new at everything - from... small things to pandemics. I especially appreciate all of the comments from teachers getting ready to take their classes online for the first time and parents navigating all of the uncertainty. Im sharing my thoughts in an article on the website: Collective Vulnerability, the FFTs of Online Learning, and the Sacredness of Bored Kids. https://brenebrown.com//20/03/21/collective-vulnerability/ Open hearts. Clean hands. Spread calm.

21.01.2022 3 Tips for Tapping with kids: 1 Set aside time every day (or make a schedule, or simply choose a "Tapping day," whatever works for you!). Consistency and... routines are essential for kids. If you are using Tapping for sleep, include it as part of your child's nightly bedtime routine. 2 Have a special "Tapping" space. Children associate their environment with specific activities. The bed is for sleeping, the dinner table is for eating, and so on. A big fluffy pillow, a furry soft blanket, a colorful corner of their room, or a cozy sitting chair works great. If your child is using Tapping to help with sleep, their bed is a great place to get into a relaxed tapping state of mind! 3 Model it yourself! Children learn by mimicking those around them, so why not set a good example? As a parent, using Tapping yourself to release stress and other built-up emotions won’t just provide a good example to follow, it will also do wonders for your own relaxation too. Check out the Sleep Support Collection for Kids in the App, "Calming the Body & Mind for Sleep" which has quickly become a family favorite: I’ve been using the sleep Tapping for my 3-year-old and 6-year-old before bedtime. My 6-year-old knows all the words, and it has had a positive impact on both of their sleeping.--Jodie W. See more

12.01.2022 A beautiful story about grieving ... and not being afraid to grieve

12.01.2022 "I think it was Brene Brown who told a story about a village where all the women washed clothes together down by the river. When they all got washing machines, ...there was a sudden outbreak of depression and no one could figure out why. It wasnt the washing machines in and of themselves. It was the absence of time spent doing things together. It was the absence of community. Friends, weve gotten so independent. Were fine we tell ourselves even when in reality were depressed, were overwhelmed, were lonely, and were hurting. Were fine, were just too busy right now we say when days, weeks, months, and years go by without connecting with friends. Im fine, Im fine, Im fine. Its so easy to say even when its not true. Weve become so isolated and its hard to know how to get back. Its so hard to know how to even begin to build the kind of relationships our hearts need. And I think In our current culture, its just not as organic as it once was. Its more work now. Because you know, we have our own washing machines. We dont depend on each other to do laundry, or cook dinner, or raise babies anymore. We dont really depend on each other for much of anything if were being honest. In Brene Browns book Braving the Wilderness, she says that being lonely effects the length of our life expectancy similar to smoking 15 cigarettes a day. I dont say that to freak anyone out, but to let you know that the longing for connection is LEGIT. I think weve treated friendship like a luxury for far too long; friendship isnt a luxury, its a necessity. We dont want it. We kind of need it. Be independent. Be proud of it. But be an independent woman who realizes the value and the importance of opening the door to other good women. You can do it alone, but you dont have to. Islands are only fun for so long. There is true magic when women come together and hold hands and share ideas and share stories and struggles and endless bowls of salsa. You use your gifts, and Ill use mine, and then well invite that girl over there who brings a completely different set of skills to the table we are building, and well watch together as something miraculous unfolds". ~ Amy Weatherlt Via @ [221875094631580:274:Sacred Dreams]

11.01.2022 I love this movie. So many messages but this one about guilt is priceless

10.01.2022 Lemon balm, also known as Melissa because of its botanical name Melissa officinalis, is an essential herb for calming the nervesin particular, those involved w...ith digestion. Many people suffer from various sensitivities in the gut, with complicated and confusing misdiagnoses involved. Whats often behind these problems are nerve endings that have become hypersensitive around the digestive organs. Nerves play a role in much of the digestive distress we experience in this day and age. For instance, inflamed phrenic nerves (which control the diaphragm and therefore influence the stomach) and vagus nerves (which run through the diaphragm and govern the stomach and digestion) are sometimes behind digestive sensitivities, as are nerves that connect the spine and digestive tract. If someones stomach or intestines are irritated for no identifiable reason, its usually due to sensitive nerves. One common occurrence is that a food (even something very easy to digest) rubs against the lining of the intestinal tract, which causes someone with sensitive nerves to feel discomfort. Nerve sensitivities can also trigger symptoms such as nausea, loss of appetite, and a sudden urgency to eliminate when nervous. Lemon balm is a gift from God and Mother Nature to deal with our frazzling world; its wonderful for addressing all of these situations with its soothing properties, which come from bioactive phytochemicals such as undiscovered alkaloids that calm the nerve receptors at the digestive tract so that the nerves become less sensitized and inflammation reduces. This makes lemon balm a valuable herb for stress assistance. And lemon balm doesnt stop there. It is a heal-all, with a high contribution factor to almost every part of the body. Extremely high in trace minerals such as boron, manganese, copper, chromium, molybdenum, selenium, and iron, lemon balm also has large amounts of the macromineral silica. Plus its a B12-conserving herbwhich means that it monitors your stores of this vitamin and keeps your body from using it all up. Anti parasitic, antiviral, and antibacterial throughout the body, lemon balm fights the Epstein-Barr virus, shingles, and other herpetic viruses such as HHV-6. Its an amazing herb for tonsillitis, which is inflammation caused by strep bacteria. Plus, lemon balm detoxifies the liver, spleen, and kidneys, and helps reduce bladder inflammation, which makes it a star for alleviating interstitial cystitis and urinary tract infections (UTIs). CONDITIONS If you have any of the following conditions, try bringing lemon balm into your life: Nutrient absorption issues, laryngitis, interstitial cystitis, yeast infections, urinary tract infections (UTIs) such as bladder infections and kidney infections, tonsillitis, hypertension, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)/mononucleosis, shingles, HHV-6, transient ischemic attack (TIA), staph infections, H. pylori infection, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), ear infections and other ear problems, hiatal hernia, neuropathy, ringworm, anxiety, depression, thyroid disease, adrenal fatigue, migraines, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), strep throat, autism, nodules on bones and glands, Lyme disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), herpes simplex 1 (HSV-1), herpes simplex 2 (HSV-2), tonsillitis, rosacea, osteopenia, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), Menieres disease SYMPTOMS If you have any of the following symptoms, try bringing lemon balm into your life: Loss of appetite, trouble sleeping, anxiousness, nervous stomach, sensitive stomach, heart palpitations, hot flashes, night sweats, frozen shoulder, stomachaches, gastritis, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, nervousness, fatigue, diarrhea, urinary urgency, urinary frequency, weight gain, weakness of the limbs, weak digestion, trace mineral deficiencies, tooth pain, fever, seizures, nosebleeds, inflammation, histamine reactions, brain inflammation EMOTIONAL SUPPORT Stress and insecurities often cause us to feel fearful about whats around the bend. We find ourselves lying in bed at night, wondering what will happen to us and our families. If youre worried about what the future holds for yourself and others, lemon balm can take the worry away and replace it with a sense of peace. SPIRITUAL LESSON Lemon balm is practically an all-purpose plant, and it teaches us that we are just as wellrounded. Were not each here for just one reason. Within one lifetime, we have many different lives. We dont have to live with singular focus; we have many chances to explore different gifts and serve diverse purposessome of which well discover along the way and some of which well live out without ever knowing how were effecting change. TIPS * Make a sun tea with fresh lemon balm by steeping it in a pitcher of water for a few hours in bright, direct sunlight. The sun extracts and upgrades lemon balms therapeutic properties, enhancing its nutrient profile to help you heal. * Try using lemon balm leaves in small amounts as a culinary herb. Grow it in a pot on your windowsill so you always have some nearby to mince and add to salads for flavor and good medicine. * Having lemon balm before bed will help calm your nerves and give you a better nights sleep. LEMON BALM TEA This lemon balm tea is soothing and mild. The lemon doesnt overpower the herbs subtle beauty, though if you want a stronger kick of lemon, go ahead and add more juice or zest to take the flavor to another level. 2 tablespoons lemon balm 1 teaspoon lemon zest 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves 1 teaspoon lemon juice Mix the lemon balm, lemon zest, and thyme together in a small bowl. Boil 4 cups of water. For each serving of tea, use 1 teaspoon of the blend per 1 cup of hot water. Steep for 5 minutes or more. Just prior to serving, add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice to each cup. *If a stronger, more medicinal tea is desired, use 2 teaspoons or up to 1 tablespoon of the tea blend per serving. Makes 2 to 4 cups Learn more about how to restore your liver in the New York Times Best-Selling book Liver Rescue: http://amzn.to/2DjQjE9
