Now that we have learned what shame and blame are comprised of, how they manifest, and what they look like, we are left with one question, “What now?” Sometimes we are trapped in the environment that breeds these feelings, and it can appear daunting to overcome; maybe even impossible. It is in these moments that […]

We learned last week that the mind, body, and spirit are always working in concert. Whether that is to outward stimuli or inward, there is a constant silent dialogue streaming just below the surface.

Somewhere along the way, society has convinced us that in order to be a good person, you must be a selfless person. The moment your phone buzzes, you must attend to it straight away. If your friend is in a state, you must drop your needs to be there for them, and the popular phrase, […]

Remember when you were a child? You were building something or riding your bike and you called out, “Mom! Mom! Look! Mom!” over and over.
