Self-Compassion to Ease Anxiety

Self-Compassion to Ease Anxiety

I'm interested in all kinds of ways that I can care for my mental and emotional wellbeing. I don't know about you, but I've found that there's no *one thing* that eases feelings of anxiety and overwhelm every time; there's no *one thing* that helps move me towards calm and peace; there's no *one thing* that points me in the direction of my highest self…

Breathing Room

Breathing Room

We're doing something a little different this week on The Transforming Anxiety Podcast! I'm sharing a bit about where I'm at, in my personal journey and in my offerings for you, and then I'm inviting you to take a short seat with me for a sweet meditation backed up with music from the amazing DJ Sol Rising.

Well hello again. Welcome back. I’m so glad to be here, with you, on this Friday afternoon. So before we get into today’s episode, I want to remind you: this is the last of the daily podcasts...for now at least. But I’m going to be doing 2 things in the coming days and weeks: one is that I will be going live on Facebook and Instagram and offering support and coaching and sharing some love and socializing-from-a-distance on those platforms…

The *How to Not Panic* Sessions: 6

Hey there, everyone. I’m kinda liking this daily hang out we have going on. We are on day 6 of this mini-series, and here in KC, it feels like it’s about day 6 of the Coronavirus quarantine, too. So this all feels fully aligned.
