23.01.2022 I remember the first time someone sheepishly said, I didn’t even know what boundaries were. I smiled. Neither did I. Even as a practicing psychologist, I didn...’t fully understand how to set them. Or if I even could set them. Just the thought of them sent a chill down my codependent spine. Then, I started practicing. I began speaking my limits. I witnessed people close to me become reactive, or just completely ignore my boundaries. Just the process of setting boundaries can give you eye opening insights into the dynamics of your relationships. Healthy people set + hold boundaries. They demonstrate self love + self worth by compassionately + objectively speaking them. When someone sets a boundary with them, they honor the other persons limits. Boundaries are the foundation of healthy relationships. For many with unresolved trauma, boundaries feel like abandonment. It’s important to understand that you’re not responsible for the emotional state of others. How a person reacts to a boundary, is for them. How you respond to that reaction is for you. You always have choice. What is your BIGGEST struggle with boundaries? #selfhealers

23.01.2022 It’s a hard job being a carer.. but these suggestions might help

22.01.2022 Be a student of your patterns. A student of your unconscious habit reactions. Be the conscious observer of when your emotional reactivity is at its highest. Wha...t we carry from our past comes up over + over to be healed. Can you witness it with curiosity? Can you ask yourself why do I feel this? Can you trust the process + wait for the answers? They will come #selfhealers See more

14.01.2022 Merry Christmas

13.01.2022 I didn't write this, but I feel its important to share. For the exhausted woman who showers a few minutes longer to cry with the water... For the person hidden ...in the bathroom, because she needs a few minutes of tranquility while slipping tears from her eyes. For the woman who is so tired that she feels she can't continue, that she would give anything to feel like herself again... For the woman who cries in her room when everyone leaves the house and for a moment she let's go... For the woman who desperately battles with self Confidence when wearing denim pants because she wants to look pretty and wear them to feel better but everything just climbs over or can't close... For the woman who orders pizza for dinner because she didn’t have the time to make dinner again as she expected... Because she's tired. For the woman who feels alone, even when she's accompanied. You're worth a lot. You are important. You are enough. You are wonderful... I love you... PLEASE SHARE This post might just save a life.

12.01.2022 The "Cuddle Your Kids" Challenge is the type of wholesome content we all need. <3

10.01.2022 Ideally, as children, we witness adults who can face stressful situations, find solutions, + returning back to a baseline of stability. But many of us witnessed... adults who lacked emotional maturity + self trust. This causes emotional impulsivity similar to what we see in children. There can be screaming, stopping, yelling, or complete shut down. Many adults cope this way because they haven’t been taught how to regulate their emotions. This is why so many of us have shame: we react from both the trauma brain + body. We are literally in the lizard, survival brain. Afterwards it’s like we come to (quite literally because we were unconscious.) Then we deal with the regret, sadness, + conflicting emotions when we act from the wounded self. Empowerment is learning how to regulate our emotional states. This is a practice. It takes commitment. Here are some ways to begin: 1. Daily meditation or breathwork for 5 minutes every morning or night when you’re NOT activated. With practice, you’ll find more and more space of quite, calm, + peace. 2. PAUSE. When you feel your nervous system a giving (a stressful text from a partner, an email from your boss, a car next to you with road rage) pause + BREATHE. Confidence is the result of this pause over + over again because you’re teaching yourself not everything needs a habit response. 3. Walk. Disengage. You do not need to respond to anything immediately unless it’s an emergency. Walking will shift your consciousness + change how you respond when you do reengage. If someone else is involved you can say I am going for a walk I will need x minutes + will discuss this when I return #selfhealers

09.01.2022 Thanks Natty! Happy Friday!

07.01.2022 Tuesday night I was at my salsa lesson and our dance instructor was showing us a dance sequence which involved about 15 steps and was quite complicated. After ...giving it a go three times, I was still not getting it and so I spoke up and told John our instructor that I was feeling overwhelmed and could we please break it down into three sections, which he did, and then I was able to master about 85%. And afterwards I had a number of people come up and thank me for speaking up as they had been in the same boat. The fact is, if you need something in this life, all you have to do is ask. Sure you may appear to be out of step (no pun intended) with your colleagues - but generally you are not! You are just the bravest for asking! So today if you need clarification on something, please step up - it really is the only way we are going to learn!

04.01.2022 Wise Words As we grow older, and hence wiser, we slowly realize that wearing a $300 or a $30.00 watch - - they both tell the same time. Whether we carry a $30...0 or a $30.00 wallet/handbag - - the amount of money inside is the same. Whether we drink a bottle of $300 or $10 wine - - the hangover is the same. Whether the house we live in is 300 or 3000 sq. ft. - - loneliness is the same. You will realize, your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world. Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, have sung songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth - - That is true happiness!! SIX UNDENIABLE FACTS OF LIFE: 1. Don't educate your children to be rich. Educate them to be Happy. So when they grow up they will know the value of things not the price. 2: Best awarded words: "Eat your food as your medicines. Otherwise you have to eat medicines as your food." 3: The One who loves you will never leave you because even if there are 100 reasons to give up he or she will find one reason to hold on. 4: There is a big difference between a human being and being human. Only a few really understand it. 5. You are loved when you are born. You will be loved when you die. In between, You have to manage! 6: If you just want to Walk Fast, Walk Alone! But if you want to Walk Far, Walk Together! SIX BEST DOCTORS IN THE WORLD: 1. Sunlight 2. Rest 3. Exercise 4. Diet 5. Self Confidence and 6. Friends/Family Maintain them in all stages of Life and enjoy a healthy life. The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for. Please copy and paste instead of sharing!

02.01.2022 This week we're going to be covering boundaries. Boundaries can be physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. I tell people in therapy that boundaries are a lo...t like a fence. In some neighborhoods, you'll find that fences are nonexistent and people can go back and forth between their property and yours without needing to ask permission. Here in Arizona, we have high block fences that don't allow us to see our neighbors or interact with them. Do you see how one can be too lax and the other too rigid? In an ideal situation, you have a boundary where you are the gatekeeper. You determine who is close and who to keep at a distance. If you're struggling with boundaries, here's what I suggest: Recognize where your boundaries are lacking Think about your needs/desires (write them out) Start making decisions without the nudging of others Practice saying "no" (a lot) Eliminate toxic situations and people Fill your time with self-nourishing activities Find support people that are not controlling or manipulative Seek help! Therapy can help you practice boundary-setting skills and better understand why this is an issue Boundaries are crucial. When we set them appropriately, we feel more peace in our life. When we struggle with setting boundaries, we feel violated, stressed, and out of control. What have you noticed about your ability to set boundaries?- Dr. Ream . . . &@psychedmommy See more
