Be kind . Normally when humans undergo a collective challenge or threat, gathering and connecting is part of our coping strategy. However, many people are experiencing disruption to these social patterns. This not only exacerbates the chronic stress but also cuts us off from our day to day support systems. When the human body experiences a threat response- either acute or chronic- we lose connection to our socially engaged state. Our nervous system shifts into fight, ...flight, freeze or faint response and re routes our energy and focus towards basic survival. While these responses are necessary in acute scenarios, they can be detrimental when the response is chronic. In an ideal world, we would have minimal chronic stress. Our systems would perform as designed when we experience sudden stress. After the event, we find resolutions through social reinforcement, playful movement and other natural ways that would help us prevent the experience from becoming entrenched in our bodies as trauma or PTSD. The Polyvagal Theory: -when you notice someone smile at you, do you ever notice you slow down, make eye contact and spread warmth from your smile thst moves into your cheeks and eyes? As humans, we are wired for social engagement. Dr.Stephen Porgess’s polyvagal theory states that, over time, our original nervous system developed into our modern, more complex system, with the fight or flight system arising and then the ventral vagus nerve- which controls the social engagement system. The ventral vagal complex mediates a sense of well being and a willingness to connect and cooperate with others. Chronic stress disrupts this system and prevents us from accessing these beneficial effects. When humans are isolated we miss out on crucial opportunities for healthy interactions. Co regulation refers to the way our nervous system has further developed to pay attention or attune to other people and animals nervous systems around us. As we look for signs of friendliness and safety, we subconsciously take our cues from rapid changes in a persons facial expressions, vocal tones and body language. -Massage Therapy magazine #massage #awareness #humans

How are you showing up? In a way that feels good and works for you? Or in a way that looks good to others? What if you don’t have to do all the things they tell you to run your online biz? What if the things your not good at can be set aside & you can zone in on what you’re naturally good at. ... I naturally don’t jump on Fb or Ig Live- but I’m better at preset or recorded content. I enjoy writing content and creating courses and workshops. I enjoy teaching. People are naturally driven towards different aspects of business or work. Its how their brains work. Although and round about understanding is necessary and a birds eye view of your business plan/systems... it’s all a learning curve thats worth exploring. This is an awesome tool I used a few years ago, that helped me gain clarity on my marketing strengths. And interesting to say the least. Also check out Perry Marshall’s 80/20 sales and marketing.

Use this yoga exercise to clear & open the Heart Chakra. Joy, grief, depression, sadness, compassion and love live here. During this time, this year remember to keep your head up & your hearts open. Humans need connection. When we hug, our hearts energy boosts our immune systems. The thymus gland corresponds with the heart chakra, responsible for immunity. So make sure you do things that make your heart sing. The world is carrying a lot of grief during this time, breath ...deep into your belly & chest. Imagine the energies you feel dissolving if it’s deficient or send out golden magic dust to those in need during this time. If you have time to call the cops on neighbors, you have time to work on yourself with meditation. The heart chakra is the center of our being. The center of love, compassion, balance and peace. Love is the most expansive state of our spirit. It transcends our boundaries and limitations, and is the meeting point of interpenetrating planes. Interconnectedness. It’s element is air, and the passion is fueled by the 3rd chakra below, fire. As the will power fires up, the balance and love at the heart can rise, Air. It’s Sanskrit name is Anahata, meaning a sound made without two things striking. How to: -Spine straight - chin level w the floor - inhale arms extend out -inhale back in with the heels of the palms coming together -do this with a powerful breath -keep the elbows straight -try for atleast 3 minutes build up to 11 #kundalini #meditation #selfawareness #selflove #love #compassion #healing #heartchakra #chakrawork #balance #awakeningthroughthechakras

Yoga is not a luxury it is a necessity-Gloria Latham Yoga lights up & activates parts of our brain and decreases activity in other areas. Neuroplasticity- is the brains ability to create new neural patterns, adapt to old ones and respond with new ones ... For example, after brain injuries or traumas, people learn to walk and talk again, there are parts of the brain that die, so the brain adapts. This is flexibility, our true human capacity, to heal, pick ourselves back up, adapt and heal. Even amongst change, this is when yoga practices become important. Not after something happens, but before. In practice, we use the eyes, hands and tongue, to rewire the brain. On a subtle energetic level, we stimulate the elements, known as Tattvas. The past begins to falls away and we respond to life in new ways. We open up to experiences as we let go of old habits. This is the truth behind the law of attraction, the discipline. The frontal lobes function is personality, thoughts and movement. It is the seat of human experience. Our reason and judgment, our capacity to respond instead of react. Developing a mature, responsive frontal lobe can mean the difference between irrational behaviours and skilled responses. There is a chord between the pituitary gland and the pineal gland, which is activated by the eyes and when you stimulate the hypothalamus. Known as the seat of the Third eye When we practice kundalini yoga and meditations, it works on the brain and helps rewire patterns and circuits, so you can be a free spirit. #kundalini #awareness #awaken #energy #universallove #lightworker #instadaily #instamood #yoga #yogi #yogaeverydamnday #selfcare #selflove #bethechange

Awaken and activate the healing ability your body was born with by working with your chakra energy! The Chakra System is an ancient metaphysical system that portrays the interrelationship between the multidimensional universe and our bodies, emotions, thoughts, ideas and actions. Chakras are spinning vortices or wheels of energy. The interpenetration of consciousness and the physical body.... There are 7 main chakras and 21 minor chakras. They all correspond to different aspects of life, your body-mind and the world around us. From what you eat, colors, animals, plants, crystals/gems, organs, Endocrines, body parts, emotions, beliefs. When the root chakra is out of balance our stability in life may cause issues like weight gain or loss, anorexia, bone issues, Constipation, your right to have, the inability to be still. The heart chakra relates to balance, compassion, acceptance of self and others, loneliness or codependency, love, the air element. It generates joy/sadness, if out of balance can cause depression. If a chakra is deficient or has excessive energy, it creates a blockage in the central stream of energy through the body. The downward current cannot make it all the way to manifestation & the upward current cannot make it all the way to liberation. Like if you have many ideas but vague or scattered to bring your ideas to fruition... this is caused by an energy block. Which leaves manifesting the activity or thing, or it manifests with frequent problems or ones that repeat themselves. Disease and illness can also appear physically because of blockages.

Just begin... it doesn’t work if you don’t try. You will get out what you put in. If you are honest with the meditation it will be honest with you. If you aren’t sure where to begin or are interested in 1 on 1 guidance- I am just a msg away.

In case someone needed this today! It's never easy, facing the reality of your life and knowing that something has to change and it has to change now. ~ Sometimes, the best decision you will ever make is to leave your pride and past expectations at the door and be brave enough to start over.... ~ It might be a bitter pill to swallow, it might break your heart in two but sometimes starting over and moving in a new direction is the best move you will ever make. ~ I've started over many times in my life. I've had to re - build myself, my career and my life more times than I care to share. I've had to leave behind the things which once mattered to me, to pursue the things that truly matter to me and I assure you it's not always easy or particularly inspiring. ~ In fact, it's usually quite the opposite, until you finally let go of what could have been and turn your attention to what can be. ~ Starting over can seem scary. But one thing I can share with you is that there is always something better and more beautiful and wondrous up ahead. ~ You won't always know it at the time and you won't always believe that things will be better, especially when you're going through a rough patch. But if you give yourself a little time you'll eventually see that everything works out in the end. ~ I'm grateful for the times I messed up, I failed and couldn't quite find my feet, because it's those moments that force you to look elsewhere and look within and consider a different path. ~ Starting over is never easy, but often it's necessary and it's often the best move you'll ever make because it's the universes way of forcing you to move forward and let go of what once was. ~ There is no shame in starting over, in fact most of the people you admire have had to start over many times. They don't let pride get in the way of what they want and they accept the odds of success, which means many failures to one victory. ~ It might be time to start over, it might be time to move in a new direction and it might be time to re - build your life. Only you know your truth, be honest and don't let over people's expectations determine your expectations of life. @before5am #repost see original post See more

Which way seems easier to maintain so you can reach your goals? Remember scheduling something in your week or day- and not doing it- doesn’t only impact your physical health but mental health too!! Make realistic goals and changes to your day- so you can check it off your list- feel accomplished without putting a crap lid of pressure on yourself!... Being in a constant state of pressure is doing you more harm than good! The minute you release the false expectations of yourself, your body, your emotions- you will feel lighter! Then the body can do its work for you(once you do) because it’s not being sabotaged or pushed along, spoke to negatively or held hostage for everything’s it not doing. What if you and your body were best friends?? Lean into that energy- what feelin comes up after asking yourself that question! Thanks to @pencilyourselfin for this great perspective!

View your energy from above- step outside yourself. Take a good look & listen to yourself. Check in. Then when you respond-choose differently! #mind #mindsetiseverything #dissolvepatterns #changehabits

Slowing down internally can give you more room to flow during your day, more time & more space to breath! It can help you stay more focused and productive! It allows space for you to be open to receiving! Most people are used to giving and giving- what if it’s also about being open to receiving? ... Receive what, you ask? Why, anything you desire! Anything you wish for! Sometimes things show up in a different way than we imagine...so ask yourself if what you’re living is what you have been feeling? (Your inner vibe puts that energy out into the universe) Today, be observant of all your blessings! Be there gratitude! Slow down: 1 thing at a time! Deep breaths! Feel your feet on the ground!

From within the empty fullness of Shakti’s heart flows a surge of ecstatic creative urgency. That primal presence feels an impulse to manifest, to create something. It’s creative urge, arising inside the field of cosmos awareness/love, is Shakti, or cosmic energy.

Our excuses show our weakness. Delay lays the foundation of frustration. Our insecurity delays our achievement. ... Every sequence has a consequence. Every start will have a finish. As every artist wants to see his art at its best, so our divinity wants us to conquer our duality. YogiB Sometimes people talk themselves out of something because they can’t see how it’s going to benefit them or their habitual excuses get in the way. They are used to waiting for the perfect time.... The only way to know is to just begin! There’s no perfect time. When I have more time...? When I have more money...? When I have alone time...? When they kids aren’t busy...? When the weekend comes...? After Christmas...? In the spring when the sun is shining...? There’s no perfect time. #justbegin

What if you set aside all the things that needed to be done, and just took some long deep breaths for a few minutes, you began to sway and dance, you shook out all the tension. How would it feel to roll around on the ground or the earth, how would it feel to run free and push your body, push your mind? How would it feel to flail around and laugh like a child? What is your inner child calling out for? ... What wasn’t nourished for you back then? How can you nourish YOU more now? What if I told you that would create MORE space for you? What if dropping into your human space, your vessel, your body brought you the foundation for change and more space to invite possibilities in? What if overthinking and trying to force everything just pushes things further away. What if it’s 80% psychological and 20% physical? How you gonna shift your vibe then? Why does is it, at times, have to be difficult to let that intangible feeling of your inner truth rise above? I know giving into the struggle and being happy now (before you are happy when you get to your destination) will help you enjoy the journey and the present moment! You’re missing out if you aren’t satisfied until things get to a place where you feel that’s success... success is now. In all areas of your life. Simply by being grateful for what you have now. For enjoying it all now bc you created this. But knowing change can happen, healing can happen, DNA can change... it can flip like a switch. When you’re ready for the darker work. The light will begin to shine more! #pic #repost #marieforleo @marieforleo #vibes #goodvibes #workonyou #workinprogress #itainteasy #itainteasybeingcheesy #truth #realtalk #loveya #youcanhealyourlife

Your attachment style is not an identity. You are not a pathology or a label. Labels can help us to an extent - to understand or express an experience, but we have to be careful not to over identify with our labels our marry ourselves to a pathology. Anxious or avoidant or disorganized, at the heart of it all: you are a human who adapted to survive and you can heal.... Acknowledge the little wins and give yourself permission to grow beyond the container of your attachment style. A practice to try on: instead of saying I’m anxious, or I’m avoidant try saying: sometimes I feel anxious or avoidant and I’m working towards becoming more secure in my relationships. One of the most empowering things we can do when on the healing Path is to check ourselves when we are becoming too identified with ideas of being broken or in need of fixing. There’s no perfection and we’re all learning, all the time. #Repost @risingwoman with @make_repost Speak your new story & life you desire into the universe, dreams you wish to manifest, speak it into reality & create a new story if you don’t love where you are! Are you careful how to talk about yourself? Or do you keep speaking about your past story? Are you carrying labels with you as identity or protection? Sometimes people are afraid to let them go as they don’t know who they would be without them. You aren’t those labels. They just are. You are beautiful just the way you are!
