If your healing has felt glitchy lately — you’re not doing it wrong. A healing glitch isn’t a setback. “Something old is being stirred… and something new is trying to come online.” It can show up as:
Nothing has gone wrong. And the more grace you give yourself during the glitch, 🌿 Mini Nervous System Mapping: “Where Am I Right Now?”A 60-second practice to move through a healing glitch with clarity. Take a slow breath — nothing forced. Just a soft inhale, soft exhale. Now map these four things: 1. StateWhat survival state feels closest? 2. SensationsWhat is your body actually doing? 3. EmotionWhat emotion is most present beneath the activation? 4. Thought + DesireWhat thought popped up? Once you name all four, I invite you to notice what shifts. From there, I invite you to choose one, gentle, next step: This is how glitches become integration moments, not spirals. ✨ Want to see this visually?My last two Instagram posts that give examples of "glitches" while we are healing: 🔗 Post 1: Even Though....a Turning Point Holiday Story (I will offer another mapping your nervous system tool tomorrow, so you can watch for that). You’re not behind. You’re integrating.Glitches don’t mean your healing isn’t working — If you’d like help mapping and moving through these moments with support instead of panic, my Basic Foundation 1:1 program is where we gently untangle this work together — one body cue at a time. Just reply “I’m curious” and we’ll explore it with zero pressure. Remember, ❤️ You Matter. Your Healing Matters. You Are Worth It! |

Here is a Gentle Way to Check In, Learn, and Nourish Your Body. The days after a holiday can feel… complicated. Sometimes things go beautifully—better than expected. Sometimes the old dynamics show up. Sometimes we show up in ways we didn’t plan. And sometimes it’s a mix of all of it. This is why aftercare matters. Not to judge yourself. Not to analyze every moment. Not to ask, “What’s wrong with me?” or “Why couldn’t I just hold it together?” Instead—aftercare is a compassionate way to help...
You Can Learn to Feel Safe Again. As we step into the holiday season, I want to offer you something: Your body isn’t broken — it’s overwhelmed. Especially if you have trauma. If your body has been living in a constant state of fight, flee, fawn, freeze, or dissociation, then your body has been carrying overwhelm for a very long time. Not because somethings gone wrong… but because your body has learned to stay alert (or shut down) in order to keep you safe. And overwhelmed bodies aren’t bad,...
Yesterday, I could feel myself move out of regulation and then ground back into it—over and over again. It was all about safety. A text would come in, and my body would startle. I was expecting a text yesterday and I quickly realized that just anticipating it—what I imagined it might say—was enough to send my body out of safety. Each time my phone buzzed, my chest tightened. My eyes filled with tears. My system braced itself for impact. The first few times it happened, I was blown away by the...
