October 19, 2022 Getting through an upset starts with you . It doesn’t matter what the upset is, what it begins with or what it has turned into, it starts with you. Something small and ridiculous will turn into something big when we don’t take a second to check-in with ourselves, taking inventory of where we are at when the upset (or better before the upset) occurs. Being busy in our lives, preoccupied, working, playing, whatever it may be, is not more important than checking

Surrender to the process and to the present moment. Let go of that which does not serve you and trust in that which does.

It's been awhile since I've posted, as I have been enjoying my life in a whole new way. I have been working really hard for the past couple months to improve myself, to be a better person and to be able to show up in a way that I never had been able to before. While doing this inner work, I realize that I haven't slowed down or stopped to appreciate all the progress that I've made and celebrate my accomplishments.

I saw the notification and threw my phone down, my heart began to race, I became extremely anxious and feared what she had to say. After being in the dark for so

Today's therapy session was completely different than all others. Recent events have shown me where I still have some work to do, as well allowed me to witness and appreciate the areas that I have been making progress. This last weekend was incredible... Worthy of a post all of its own, so keep an eye out for that. 😉 (Here you can find out about how that week began) In short, I was presented with an opportunity to practice all that I have been learning. In doing this, I real

September 16, 2022 Just got back from downtown, had an amazing time by myself. I'm finally drying out, but I'm a bit wired and can't sleep. So I wanted to do a short entry to discuss what I'm experiencing as a result of the last hypnotherapy session because I feel the information is important. As each day passes I see an incredible change in how I am being in the world. I find myself wanting to do one thing, then thinking about how the secure, confident, and self-assured ver
