This spring has invited many of us to slow down and tune in.

We want to rush, but we are learning that we need our presence, attention, and focus.

We want to do everything, but the constant pressure shuts us down.

We want to spring into action, but our bodies are teaching us to slow down and be intentional with our time and energy.

Spring teaches us that we can give ourselves guidance and direction when we listen to our bodies, connect with ourselves, and receive our wisdom, truths, and stories.

We have learned repeatedly that to rush through it all is to live the same cycle again.

Integration of our stories empowers us and validates our bodies’ experiences.

This is Body-Centered Living, a life that honors and considers the body, both the individual and the collective.

This way of living is revolutionary.

Reframing Grief

Grief doesn’t mean something is over—it means something has transformed. It has evolved. A relationship on the outside may have ended. Still, as a result, you may have transformed into a more honest version of yourself- a loved one passed, and now your relationship can be spiritual and fulfilling in a different way than it was.

Grief was a great teacher this past week in my practice—reminding us to slow down and offer ourselves our own medicine. You may be wondering, What is my medicine?

Your medicine is your love and attention—it is your care.
