Have You Heard the Call to Go Within?

Happy November, blank~

I hope this finds you well as we officially move into a new month and find ourselves fully experiencing the shifts and changes of the Autumn season here in the Northern Hemisphere.

I feel like so much has happened since we last connected; it seems like each day there is something big happening all over the world not to mention within our own individual lives and communities. I know that as a highly sensitive person it can feel even more intense to keep up with the all the headlines but at the same time feeling guided to help where you can which can create a bit of a push pull dichotomy. So many people that I talk to are experiencing a bit of helpers burn out, maybe you are experiencing this too. You may want to do more, help more, and contribute more but also feel like you need to listen to your body which is asking you to rest and restore. If so, you’re not alone. As sensitive souls this need to balance the strong desire and call to help others while also taking good care of yourself is always happening but you may notice that the call to slow down is getting more and more prescient.

This theme of pulling your energy within is coming through very clearly right now. This guidance to pull your resources back, to get quiet, and to allow yourself to reset is a powerful message that will support you in moving forward this month. I know that may seem like a contradiction in terms, but by going within (to the best of your ability) you’re able to gain clarity about what you’re being guided to focus on and how to move forward when you’re guided to do so. This may include some of the following, or may help you to realize the messages that you’re receiving; this is not a be all end all list.

  • Reducing excess noise so that you can more clearly hear the messages that are coming though for you.

  • Choosing specific times to check in on news stories and updates rather than scrolling throughout the day or listening to podcasts or news programming in the background throughout the day.

  • Supporting your body by increasing your immune system through drinking more water and eating more nutrient dense foods.

  • Reducing or removing foods and beverages that are making you feel tired, sick, or sluggish.

  • Getting outside into nature to move your body and also connect with the natural beauty, plants, and animals all around you.

  • Taking breaks from screen time and physically doing something you enjoy.

  • Creating a space that feels gentle and supportive for you so you can let down and allow your body, mind, and spirit decompress.

  • Listening to gentle music, meditations, or nature sounds to support your nervous system.

  • Using golden or amber colored lightbulbs to help soften the light in your home.

  • Using candles or faux candles to create the gentle flicker and warm lighting in your home.

  • Investing in time to genuinely rest and restore even if that means you aren’t multi-tasking while “resting.” (Investing in rest is worth it’s weight in gold, and yes, you’re worth it.)

  • Allowing yourself to sleep when you feel tired. (to the best of your ability) You may want to go to bed 15 to 20 minutes earlier so that you can get more sleep and better quality sleep.

  • Remove or reduce blue light in your sleeping spaces and avoid working or scrolling while in bed so you associate your sleeping space with sleep and rest.

  • Say yes to more flex time in your schedule even if it means saying no to something else.

  • Allow yourself to release the things, people, and situations which are no longer a fit for you even if they were a fit at one time.

  • Make time to do things that fill you up on a soul level even if only for 10 minutes each day. You can set a timer if it helps you and when the timer goes off you can choose to stop or continue if you feel guided.

  • Ask for and allow yourself to receive help and support when you need it.

By including a few of these in your day to day this month (or something specific to you that showed up as you were reading through this list) you will find that you’re better able to take good care of yourself. You may also find that you gain more clarity, insight, and genuine self care at the same time. You don’t have to spend a lot of time investing in these actions to receive the benefits that come with them. You’ll notice that you’ll feel ready to reach out to help those around you or even those who live far away from you when the time is right. As you pull your energy within, you’ll be able to hear, see, feel, and know the messages and guidance that are coming through for you more easily.

As we continue to move through these intense times, it’s even more important for you to take really good care of yourself so you’ll be ready to offer the support, kindness, and help where you’re divinely guided. I see you. I know that you’re spreading light and support wherever you go, whether to the cashier, a stranger who stops to tell you their whole life story in the produce aisle, a neighbor, delivery person, or someone online who’s struggling. I know that you’re always “on” whether you’re at work or at home because you have a kind word or insight for someone in your inner circle. Maybe you’re also working behind the scenes to help when someone or something is out of place and needs to be corrected. I know that you’re raising your hand for more assignments even when your hands are already full. This is a beautiful gift and helps make other people feel seen, validated, and safe; but please remember that you’re deserving of these same kinds of support. Breathe. Take a moment to let down and know that you’re not alone. It’s important to rest when you’re guided and it’s important to receive help when you’re guided too. You don't have to do everything all by yourself.

We’re about to move into a time of shorter days and longer nights beginning on the 3rd of this month here in the Northern Hemisphere which automatically supports us in slowing down and taking time for rest and relaxation. I hope that you will allow yourself to honor this deep and noble call to take good care of yourself this month. This is also a time when gathering and holiday celebrations begin to increase as well. I hope that you will allow yourself to enjoy the balance of going within and sharing in celebrations with loved ones as the month unfolds. I’m wishing you and yours a very healthy and happy November and Thanksgiving Holiday if you’re celebrating.

As always, I’m sending you love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you.

Cool, Calm, and Collected

Hello and welcome to October,

I hope this finds you well as we officially move into a new month and begin to settle into the Autumn season here in the Northern Hemisphere. For some reason, shifting into October, even the very first day feels like such a significant shift for me. Do you notice that shift happening for you today, too? It’s like a little click happens and all of a sudden there’s a palpable awareness that crisp, cooler, cozy weather will be showing up little by little every day this month. Maybe you’ve already started to make way for the new season by changing some things in your home, like pulling out throw blankets, adding soft accent pillows to your sofa or bed, or maybe you’ve already had your first cup of all things pumpkin spice. In any ways that you’re being guided to shift into this season, please give yourself permission to say yes.

While the natural rhythms of each season are always connected to us, there’s something special about moving from one season into the next; we can feel and see the changes happening all around us and it supports us in recognizing the changes happening within us as well. This is a wonderful time to check in with yourself about what changes you’re experiencing and what changes you would like to invest in throughout this new season. You may be experiencing a lot of momentum if you’re still plugging away at updating your systems which was such a powerful theme that was showing up in September. Maybe as you’ve been updating organizational systems, donation, and work flow systems, you’ve found more areas you’re inspired to update and streamline. It’s such a great feeling when you lighten your load and get things into alignment for where you are now so you can move forward with what works best for you and your needs. This energy of fresh starts, new beginnings, and change is a powerful time to continue the projects that you have on your list and to allow yourself to enjoy your spaces as well. As we begin to move into a season where we will be experiencing shorter days and longer nights, we often spend more time indoors and at home. The pull to create a space that feels supportive, comforting, and safe is a strong message that’s showing up right now. (Maybe you’re receiving this message too.)

In fact, this theme of almost hunkering down and creating a space (to the best of our ability) that feels cozy and nurturing has been so strong that it almost feels like it can’t be ignored. Like most things, there’s no one way or right way to do this. There are only the ways that feel right for you right now. Maybe the ways you used to honor this call isn’t the way you feel guided to do it this season. Maybe you’ll feel guided to increase your creature comforts by setting out some favorite candles, or essential oil blends that feel like fall to you. Maybe you’ll be guided to shift the lighting to more gentle or golden lighting so your space feels more calming and restful. Maybe you’ll be guided to get out some activities that you enjoy doing that you have tucked away in closets or boxes. These could include puzzles, art supplies, yarn, needles or hooks, journals, musical instruments, or maybe some physical books that you’ve been meaning to get around to reading. Anything that you enjoy that you haven’t been able to do for whatever reasons, this is a good time to get them down and into places that you can easily see and access. You’ll be amazed at how much you’ll allow yourself to enjoy your interests when they’re easily accessible to you. Maybe the way you mark the seasonal shift and move into the energy of cozy involves baking or cooking something special that you look forward to all year. Maybe you would like to try your hand at making something new or something that you’ve been wanting to try for a long time. All of these are wonderful ways to move into this energy of creating a space that makes you feel comforted and insulated. A place where you’d like to stay awhile and even put your feet up, maybe you have fuzzy socks on too.

When I was receiving this message about what themes are really palpable for this month, I was shown the importance of making this seasonal shift a priority. Not only because it supports us in moving into this new season and organically helps us to experience more balance but because it’s supporting us in creating a small space of peace. With so much happening all around us within our communities, on a national level, and as a global community there’s a lot of intensity, stress, and worry happening. It seems you can find news stories every day and nearly all day no matter what time zone we’re in that contribute to these feelings of stress and overwhelm. As we continue to move through this season, we’ll find this intensity to not only be with us but also to magnify. While this thought can feel unwelcome, on a deep core level I know that many people (especially highly sensitive souls like yourself) can see and feel this truth resonating for them too. It’s important to remember that allowing ourselves to feel our feelings is important and it’s equally important to cultivate a space that can support us in increasing calm, comfort, and care. We’re being guided to invest in this support system for ourselves and our loved ones so that we can carve out a space that feels like a sanctuary inside the storm. You don’t have to do all the things all at once. The process of moving into this new season while also enjoying it can happen a little bit at a time; that’s the magical part of the experience. The big message here is about allowing yourself to honor this calling in the ways that you feel resonate for you. The message is about not putting off this experience for another day when you have more time or when you feel “ready” but rather to make today the right day. Every action you make no matter how seemingly small will lead to a significant shift for you and your home. You are 100% worth the investment of these action steps and it will yield big dividends for you throughout the whole season. Focus on what’s right in front of you, and choose what you can do today to honor the call you’re receiving about this new season.

I hope that you’ll enjoy watching the colors of the changing leaves, the crisp cool morning air, the smell of autumn, and the change in the light all month long. I hope you’ll enjoy finding ways to honor your own personal blend of cool, calm, and collected throughout October. This is a magical month filled with so many shifts and changes and it’s also the unofficial kick off to the holiday season for many people. Lean into the season, lean into the shift, and give yourself permission to say yes to the comfort and calm that your soul wants right now.

As always, I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you.

If you feel guided to work with me this month, I would love to support you during a session.

With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

Reassess, Reengage, and Repeat

Hello and welcome to August~
I hope this finds you well as we begin a new month. I feel like so much has happened since we last connected and I have a feeling you may be experiencing it too.  Does it feel a bit like a whirlwind has been happening? Almost as if days feel like weeks and then sometimes weeks feel like days? You’re not alone and no, you’re not imagining it either. So much is happening that it can be a bit of a challenge to take a break and focus on one thing at a time while also remembering to take a little time for you too.

So, on that note, let’s take a little deep breath, in through the nose and out through the mouth….good. Take a moment to release any tension, tightness, or stress you may be holding onto inside of your body. And double check to make sure you aren’t holding your breath and release any tension in your tummy…good. Go ahead and take another deep breath in and then out through your mouth…good. You can do this exercise anytime you are feeling any tension or stress or if you notice that your body feels tight or frozen. This helps to reset your nervous system and can support regulating your body so it can get back to rest and digest instead of running fight, flight, freeze, or fawn for long periods of time. This natural stress response can stay activated for long periods of time when we’re experiencing a significant amount of stress and unexpected events over a period of time.

As you may already know or can guess from the title of this newlsetter, Mercury Retrograde is beginning on the 4th of this month and goes through the 28th. However, we’ve already been getting a preview of this energy as its shadow period began on the 16th of July. All we have to do is think about the blue screen update fiasco to get a picture of this energy system that we’re all moving through together. Whether we were personally impacted by the blue screen update, or tried to support people we knew who were impacted, or watched footage of people stuck in airports we are all getting a clear view of this energy. This is a great time to back up files and double check your systems. For more specific information about the astrological updates surrounding this cycle, click here to read Elizabeth Pendleton’s detailed breakdown. If you’ve been here for a while you’ll remember Elizabeth and her fantastic Astrology 411; if you’re new, you’re in for a treat, she’s fantastic!

With everything happening right now, the big theme that’s coming through is all about taking stock or taking a personal inventory of what you’re being guided to address. This can be anything from going over to do lists that have been unattended for whatever reasons, to getting some extra items from the store for a little cushion, or making changes to your schedule so you can have more room to get to the things you are being guided to do. Sometimes one of the best ways we can make an impact is to clear out the stuff that isn’t really relevant right now. Maybe you’re being guided to say no to some things so you can say yes to making your lists or needs a priority. Reassessing your situation is a top priority right now. If you’ve been getting this message too, you’re spot on and I’m just confirming your messages for you.

Once you are clear on what you’re being guided to focus on, try to do one thing at a time so you can see and feel progress being made. I know that it sounds like doing one thing at a time should be a given but I know that you probably tend to do many things all at the same time. So, when you find yourself going into this pattern, give yourself some grace, take a breath, and choose one thing to work on and then work on that one thing, even if only for 15 minutes. If you need to set up a timer, it can really help to calm any stress you may feel about only working on one thing at a time. When the timer rings, you can either take a break, choose to stop, or choose to begin working on something else. This will help you to make real progress and get things off your list while also helping you to decompress and offload some stress at the same time. You’ll also increase your ability to focus on one thing at a time which will make it easier to continue this new pattern. This is the Reengage phase, as it allows you to take action consciously in ways that are supportive for you. This style also allows you to build in Recovery time with an option to take a break and to stop when your timer rings. This is really important right now too; as you can imagine stress can take a toll on our overall health and wellbeing. Taking time for recovery and rest is important and allows you to get back to your reengage phase when you’re ready.

This process of reassess, reengage, and repeat is the big theme coming through right now. Part of this can also include things like rest, renewal, rejuvenate, restore, review, reconnect, remove, respond, retire, recreate etc. The real takeaway here is to give yourself permission to focus on what you are personally being guided to invest in during this cycle. Your Reassess list or information may be similar to someone else’s in your life or it may be really different. By connecting with yourself and asking what you need to focus on you’ll be guided to the things that are right for you. You can take some time in quiet meditation or during a journaling exercise to get clear on what is showing up for you. You can work with your guides or AA Michael, AA Raphael, or AA Uriel to help you get clear on this information. Or, if you feel guided to work with me; I would love to help you get some clarity on this information! Whatever ways feel right for you as you move through this theme this month will support you in making progress and moving forward one step at a time.

I look forward to working with you if you feel guided to schedule a session with me and I’m wishing you a gentle and supportive month. Please go slow, give yourself grace, and ask for help when you need it. A lot is happening and it’s important to remember that you’re not alone.

As always, I’m sending you love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you!
With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

P.S. At the time of writing this, the Park Fire is still raging in my community. A big thank you to those of you who have reached out and sent your love and support, I really appreciate it! As of right now I have not been evacuated and I haven’t had to change any appointments. I am still working and If I am evacuated, I will keep you updated and keep my schedule updated as well, to the best of my ability. Xoxo

July 2024: Bringing the Heat

Hi, Happy July!
I hope this finds you well as we begin our first full month of Summer here in the Northern Hemisphere. This season is already off to a hot start and I hope that wherever you are, you’ve been able to stay cool through these heat waves. The energies and messages that have been showing up for July have been really interesting. In some ways the energies are similar to the bright, warm, and long summer days of July’s past while others are a bit different. Maybe you’re receiving these same messages, insights, and feelings about our new month too. I want to share with you the messages that I’ve been getting and some ways that we can move through this big bright energy together.

Grab a tall cold glass of water, iced tea, or anything that feels refreshing for you and let’s take a look at what’s happening this month. There are 2 big themes that are showing up for us this month. They are equally palpable and equally bright in the way they look and feel. If you can imagine two lanes on a freeway (I know freeways have more than 2 lanes but just imagine that there are two.) You can drive on either of these lanes because they are both on your side of the freeway. They are the same size and look equal in every way. One lane is all about fun, laughter, long summer days, long summer nights, playing outside, and carefree summer energies. The other lane is all about making a list and checking it twice. (Sorry for the Christmas in July reference but that is what’s coming through.) There’s a strong theme around taking stock of what you have on hand that may need to be spruced up a bit. For example, if you need to add some things to your pantry staples or have some more water on hand, there’s a strong message about taking action on those things. There’s also a strong theme about clearing clutter, fixing or replacing items that need to be tended to, and getting things on your to do list marked off and finished. This checks and balances calling is very clear in its message to go through our homes, properties, and even closets with a fine tooth comb to get a clear image of what needs to be done and then to take action on ticking it off the list. We’re being guided to do this to the best of our ability. Focus on making that list and move through it as you’re able, start with the things that feel fun or easy. Some things may require the help from a professional or a friend and reaching out for that help when needed will also help you to move forward on your list.

These 2 big themes feel like opposites and one of them definitely isn’t representative of a traditional summer message. However, what I see is that these 2 themes compliment one another beautifully and are being brought through as a support system for us. Imagine yourself driving in the checks and balances lane for a while, you notice that you’re making a lot of progress and getting things checked off your list; you’re feeling good but also ready for a little break. So, you decide to change lanes into the classic relaxing, fun, and playful summer energy. Maybe you feel guided to take a day trip or host a garden party, or ride your bike all over town, or spend the day splashing in the creek or pool. This lane provides you with the relaxing energy that helps you to feel restored and ready to change lanes again and get back to the list you’ve made. It’s this ebb and flow that’s happening and when you think about summer, that is a very traditional + powerful theme that shows up for us. We’re being guided to stay in the flow of play and fun while also getting our house is order so to speak. You get to decide how long you drive in each lane. You’ll know when you’re being divinely guided to switch to the other lane, you’ll know it and you’ll be able to feel it. The pull to switch lanes will be palpable.

If you’re wondering why this 2 part theme is showing up for us this month, I see that it’s supporting us in streamlining things in our lives. I see that simplifying, lightening our load, and having things organized and in working order is going to set us up for success as we continue to move through these next months. It’s one of those things where you’ll look back at this month and say, “way to go past me, you’re awesome!”

As you’re moving through your freeway, you may notice that there’s a 3rd lane up ahead. This lane represents continuing to learn and practice new skills. The skills, hobbies, and even things you’ve been wanting to try your hand at are here in this 3rd lane. It’s really a combination of learning, taking action, and having fun. Please feel free to drive in this lane when it shows up for you this month too. It’s also a supportive stream and will lead to forward motion while also having fun strengthening your new skill sets, a win-win for sure.

Overall, each of these lanes allows us to move through the ebbs and flows of the energies happening this month. By changing lanes when guided throughout July we get to make the most out of the month while also having fun, slowing down, and gaining momentum on our lists. I encourage you to enjoy each of the lanes as you’re in them, lean into them fully and then change lanes and enjoy the other energies fully too.

I’m wishing you a wonderful month, one filled with fun, joy, rest, rejuvenation, and forward motion on all the things that you’re working on throughout July!
If you’d like me to take a look at the personal themes showing up for you this month, I would love to work with you. Or if you feel guided to schedule a session for another topic entirely, I would love to support you in any way that I can!

As always, I’m sending you so much support and love from my teeny tiny corner of the world straight to you!
With love and gratitude,
Kristy~xoxo

P.S. Please remember to drink a little bit more water than usual; it’s so hot out there and it’s important for you to stay healthy and hydrated. 😊
A very Happy 4th of July to you and yours if you’re celebrating!

Schools Out for Summer: Tapping into the Magic of the Season

Hello, I hope this finds you well as we welcome July.

It feels like it’s been so long since we last connected, I don’t know about you but June felt like a really long month this year. We’ve officially arrived to summer here in the Northern hemisphere even though it’s been pretty hot in my little corner of the world for a while now.

When I think about summer I often think about summers as a child and how exciting it was to have time off school, long summer nights, and lots of fun with friends and family. As a grown up, summer can sometimes feel a bit different with most of us working during this time and maybe some extra responsibilities too especially if you have little ones at home. I was thinking about ways to keep that whimsical summer energy woven into the season even with the responsibilities of being an adult. While there are lots of ways to do this, I was thinking that it could be helpful to think about a few of the seemingly simple stand out memories or favorites that you hold dear. You may be able to find a common theme for yourself when you do this. You may find there’s favorite foods you enjoy making because they represent summer to you. Maybe you like to do certain activities like making smores in the back yard because you have fond memories of doing that as a child. Maybe you really look forward to setting up an outdoor movie night with popcorn and other favorite snacks. Maybe for you it’s all about the swimming or maybe you’re already creating piles of summer reading books. The options are endless, it really just matters what stands out to you when you personally think about the energy of summer.

Taking a little time to find the theme or themes that are a fit for you can help you to bring that experience into your summer this year. You don’t need to pack every day with activities or spend lots of time away to enjoy the experience of summer. By choosing your theme and setting the intention to bring your personal brand of summer into your season this year, you will find that it allows you to open the door to the things that feel like summer for you. It can also add a little excitement, whimsy, and magic to your season too. You may find it helps you to tap into that childlike joy you had when you thought about an entire season of time off from school to play and have fun.

Here are a few questions you can ask yourself to help you find a theme that feels like a fit for you this summer. You may want to write down your answers if you feel guided and you can come back to the exercise at any time you choose. There are no wrong answers, so you can just relax and have fun with this process.

Take a couple of deep breaths in through your nose and out through your mouth. Good, letting go of any tension, tightness, or stress that you may feel holding space inside your body. Go ahead and take another breath, and let go of any to do lists, or other things that may be holding space around you; knowing that you can go back to them when you’re finished.

  • When I think about my 3 favorite summers; these are the summers that come to mind:_____________________________________________________________

  • Why do these summers stand out as favorites for me? __________________________________

  • How did these experiences make me feel? ___________________________________________

  • Were there similar aspects to these summers or are they special because they are each unique? ___________________________________________________________________________

  • Who was with me during these favorite summers? ______________________________________

  • What kinds of activities did I do?_______________________________________________________

  • What were some stand out moments or aspects that felt special to me? ______________________________________________________________________________

  • How would I describe these experiences of my favorite summers? ____________________________

  • What aspects or themes stand out when I look back over those summers? ______________________________________________________________________________

  • If I had to choose 3 words to describe my favorite summers, what would they be? ______________________________________________________________________________

  • How do these words make me feel? ____________________________________________________

  • How can I incorporate these words or themes into my summer season this year? __________________________________________________________________________

  • When I think about using these themes as an intention for this summer, I feel______________________________________________________.

  • My personal theme for the summer of 2022, is the season of _____________________________________.

Great job, now you can take a moment to just sit with any emotions and memories that you’re experiencing around this or you can continue to write down any ideas or inspiration this created for you; whatever feels right for you.

I hope this will help to bring a little spark of excitement, joy, and even some childlike wonder to your new season this year. In any ways that feel like a fit for you I hope that you will enjoy celebrating the themes and aspects of the season that resonate for you and yours this summer.

I look forward to participating in some of my favorite summer activities too; things like riding bikes, early morning hikes, making popsicles, more canning, swimming, and yes, getting through some of my piles of summer reading books. I would love to hear about your personal theme for the season if you feel guided to share it with me. I’m wishing you a wonderful summer!

I’m sending you lots of love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you!

Preparing to Paddle Out | Watching and Readying for your Wave

Happy March…can you feel it? The waves of change are up on us.
Maybe you can physically feel the energy rising up inside of you and maybe you can see it all around you; but no matter how it’s showing up for you, the energy is officially shifting. Here in the Northern Hemisphere, we’re on the cusp of Spring, new beginnings, and a surge of new energy. You may notice that you’re beginning to feel this building of strength, anticipation, and forward motion with you more and more each day. Maybe your energy and enthusiasm are beginning to rise and you’re being guided to line up some of the plans that have been on your list. This is a powerful time to take a deeper dive into what those priorities are for you and to get ready to paddle out so that you can ride your wave.

Have you ever watched (or maybe you’ve experienced this yourself) people paddling out into the water to catch the wave that is right for them? There’s a clear pattern of preparing, patiently waiting, allowing the timing to be right, and then giving themselves permission to go for it when their wave lines up for them, their personal timing, and skill set. This series of preparation and readiness is something we can apply within our own lives right now too. You don’t have to live near the sea in order to ride the waves of life in a way that supports, soothes, and serves your path, calling, or life purpose.

During this month while we’re continuing to foster our own energy, personal growth, and readiness we can begin to prepare for the wave we’ve been waiting for and working toward riding. This is an exciting time; one that can be a catalyst for forward motion and fun. Sometimes it feels like we have to choose either forward motion or fun, and sometimes that’s true; however, there are ways that we can increase fun, joy, and happiness even when we’re moving toward a goal or moment we’ve been working toward for some time. Each aspect is important, worthwhile, and a contribution to our overall experience.

So, this month as you’re noticing your own shifts, alignments, and opportunities opening up for you, I invite you to take a little time to prioritize your planning and playfulness. Tune into your own messages, divine timing, and inner knowing of what is right for you right now so you can ready yourself to paddle out to catch your wave. Your wave is the one that feels and looks like yours; it’s the wave you’ve been waiting for, the wave that you’ve been working toward, and the one that you’re ready to ride into this next phase of your life. This one is taking you to the next part of your year and into this new energy of fresh starts, new beginnings, and new possibilities. Remember you don’t have to force anything to happen nor do you have to go against your own grain. Seemingly small yet significant shifts lead to big positive change. Focusing on one or two things that you can do right now, today, will help to align you with this shift that is happening all around us and within us.

It’s happening within you…right now, right this very moment.
You’re ready.

  • Take a deep breath in through your nose and out through your mouth and ask yourself:

  • “What action can I take today to bring me closer to my goal, dream, or calling?”

Give yourself permission to hear, see, feel, or know your answer; and then give yourself permission to go for it.

There’s no right or wrong here. Your message may look similar to someone else you know or it may be something completely unique for you. Your answer is the one that matters, and you get to decide how to integrate your messages into your life right now. Take a minute to write down what’s coming through for you and then grab your board and get into the water; your wave is waiting for you.

I’ve included some ideas that may help you to move through this time, but please feel free to adjust them, personalize, them, and create your own list. This is just a starting place to give you some ideas and inspiration to get going.

Lighten Your Load

  • If there are things that have been weighing you down, this is a great time to let them go. This can be physical items that you clear out of your closets, pantry, garage, or other nooks where things tend to collect. Donate, gift, and release the things that you’re finished with as a way to create and open up space within and around you. You may notice that you physically feel lighter after this clearing which helps to clear any clutter from your thinking space as well. If there are other things weighing you down, including ways of living, relationships, or old dynamics that have come full circle, it may be time to release those as well.

Shift Your Space

  • Sometimes simply moving things around in your home, on your desk, or outside can help you shift the energy in your space. This can help to shake things up and even create a shift in perspective for you and anyone else who lives with you.

Deep Breaths

  • Are you holding your breath throughout the day? Do you find your shoulders up around your ears around 3 pm? Do you find yourself taking mouth breaths? You may be holding your breath when you feel overwhelmed, under pressure, or in stressful situations. When you notice this happening, it’s okay, it’s not a judgement, your body is trying to give you signals that it would like some deep breaths and a little reset. Take a moment and do a few deep breaths and move your shoulders a bit so you can put your body back into a gentler state. You may also feel guided to start or resume a meditation practice which can be very beneficial for your overall health and wellness.

Ask for Help

  • When you feel like you need some insight, support, or additional hands on deck, please ask for help. Asking for help is a strength and not a weakness. You don’t have to do everything all by yourself all of the time. Ask people in your inner circle for support or reach out for professional support if you’re being guided to do so.

Listen to Your Inner Voice

  • Your inner voice is rooting for you. The real you is always on your side, in your corner and sounds and feels like love. You’ve been able to overcome all of the challenges in your life up to this point; and even if you’re venturing out on a brand new experience, keep going. Every step forward is still forward motion and you can do it. If you need help, insight, support, or expertise as you’re moving forward, ask for help. Remember you don’t have to do everything all by yourself all of the time.

I’m wishing you a wonderful month of new beginnings and new opportunities rising to greet you.
I’m sending you oceans of love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you.

With love and gratitude,

Happy New Year: Moving into Your New Year

I hope that 2022 has begun as a gentle and restful beginning for you.

I wanted to wait an extra week before sending you a note at the beginning of the year to support you in easing into the year after the holidays. There’s is a big transition that happens after the holiday season; sometimes this transition time is referred to as the holiday let down or the holiday recovery. No matter what we call it, the shift is real and palpable. Maybe you’ve noticed it in your own life too, the body tends to give us signs and signals letting us know it wants to move a little slower, a little gentler, and a little quieter. This time at the beginning of the year is a gentle reset and we can see and feel this shift happening within and around us in lots of seemingly small, yet significant ways.

With this rhythm of moving slowly into this new year as a guide, you can allow yourself to organically shift into 2022 in the ways that feel right for you. Just like you begin to remove holiday decorations or you reset your home for this new year, you can feel the shift happening in your physical spaces. You may notice that your space feels lighter, more open, and even larger. You may notice that moving through this process of changing things around and putting things away is a gentle and slow process, yet at the same time creates a big impact quickly. You can lean into this same gentle space as you continue to move into this new year in the ways that resonate for you.

In the Northern Hemisphere, we’re in the season of winter, which is traditionally a season of rest. Even though we don’t take the season off per se, there’s still a pull for us to go within and allow our energy reserves to build up in preparation for spring, just like the plants and animals. This may show up for you as a desire to get to sleep a little bit earlier or to focus on the comforts of being warm and cozy inside your home. You may feel guided to do some introspection, journaling, or reading. Perhaps you feel guided to pick up a creative project that has been waiting for you for a while. No matter how this call to rest, rejuvenation, and renewal shows up for you; please know that it’s feeding your energy stores while also comforting and supporting you.

As you begin to think about what this new year may hold for you and what you may like to bring to it, please give yourself permission to listen to your personal rhythm and allow that to be your personal guide. There are often lots of messages about how to move, jump, or dive into the new year. These are great, if they resonate for you. Only you know what the right timing, energy, and approach is right for you, your year, and this particular season of your life.

So, if you’re feeling a tug or a message to slow down or to be more mindful of how you’re moving into this new year so it feels like a true fit for you, please give yourself permission to hear and honor that soul wisdom you’re receiving.
If you’re being guided to fill up your planner, to make a new vision board, or begin your manifesting work, wonderful, enjoy all the creativity that comes along with that. If you find yourself somewhere in between or a little of this and a lot of that, fantastic, lean into that space. Remembering to listen to your internal guidance, wisdom, and energy stores is a powerful force that will allow you to move through your world in the ways that resonate and work for you.

As we move into this new year together, my wish for you is that you will tap into your personal joy, happiness, and peace while moving forward this year in the ways that resonate for you. Thank you so very much for being here with me, I am so honored to share this time with you.

I’m sending you so much love from my teeny tiny corner of the world right to you!
With love and blessings,
Kristy~xoxo

Moving Through + Shifting HSP Burn Out | Tools to Traverse the Turning Tides

beach.jpg

I was having a bit of a rough go trying to decide what to write about as we move into this new month. Sometimes it feels like each day and week are so similar to the one before and other times it feels like there’s so much change happening from one day to the next. Are you feeling this way too? One of the things that has really been showing up for me lately has been the repeating theme about Highly Sensitive People (like yourself) experiencing HSP burn out.

I’m definitely feeling it in my own life and I’m finding it showing up for my clients and friends as well. We’re officially nearing the halfway mark of this year and there are still so many places that are under lockdown orders and still experiencing a lot of restrictions to daily life. You may still be moving through some of this too or know people who are.

This in and of itself has definitely taken a toll, not to mention all of the other intensity, changes, and upheaval we’re seeing all over the globe no matter where we live. So many people have told me that they just feel like they are having a hard time finding balance, feeling like themselves, and finding a way to experience some semblance of peace in their day to day life. There’s lots of feelings of overwhelm and not knowing how to help, and also feeling exhausted from all of the information. If you’re experiencing any of this, I want you to know that you’re not alone.

In fact, you’re in really good company.

It’s not just you.

You’re not the only one having a tough time moving through this time on our planet.

It is a really difficult time and we’re all in it together.

As a sensitive soul it can feel magnified, and that’s not because you’re not trying hard enough.

It’s because it’s really hard.

Take a breath, a big one, in through your nose, and out through your mouth….good.

One more time.

Good job.

One of the most effective ways we can move through this time is to take a little time to check in with how we’re doing and make some adjustments to things that we can change. Taking good care of yourself will allow you to better know how to help someone else and to be ready to help too.

I’ve included 6 things that have been showing up as deep support systems for Highly Sensitive Souls during this time. Please use these as inspirations and ways to help you, but adjust accordingly to make these a fit for you and your needs. I hope these will inspire you to create some tools that will be helpful for you and for your loved ones too.

Change the Channel, Change Your Frequency, Literally. :

Intense frequencies can drain your energy and can create or lead to exhaustion without even realizing it. Just think about that one family member or colleague who always tells you all of their problems non stop; you may feel drained after interacting with them, while they feel better after taking all your energy from you. Changing the channel can help to reduce or eliminate this issue for you. Turn off your television, especially repeating news about trauma and other negative stories. (you can always set a time to check in on that information but don’t need it on all the time.)

Re-set the frequencies in your space; think about layering sounds that are pleasing and supportive for your nervous system, body, mind, and spirit. If you have a sound machine, get it out and play it in the background quietly. Your body will automatically respond to it and it will help to release and manage stress that could be holding space within you. You may also want to layer another gentle sound over that to help create an even more soothing space for you and the people in your home.

Think of walking into a spa or another relaxing place; you’ll notice there are often layered sounds happening to help you instantly shift into a resting state instead of being in the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn state that most people experience throughout the day.

Water:

Increase the amount of water that you’re drinking to help you move stress and tension out of your precious and highly sensitive body. Hydration also helps to increase clear thinking, better quality sleep, reduces cravings for foods and beverages which can have an adverse effect on the body, and helps to keep the organs responsible for cleaning and processing moving and working efficiently.

Pull Your Energy Inward:

You may need to let people know that you’re taking a break from being overly available for all the things. Highly sensitive people like yourself often over extend their energy without realizing they’re doing it, leaving them feeling drained and exhausted. You may need to turn off your phone earlier in the evening, allow some calls to go to voicemail, let emails sit in your inbox, and say no to extra demands on your time so you can find your own footing again and experience some personal life balance. Use this extra time to invest in activities that are restorative and uplifting for you. These things can include creative outlets, reading for pleasure, and yes, even resting.

Sweat:

I know, not the most glamorous thing in the world, but very effective in clearing away intense energies and increasing strength. Moving your body in a way that lets you sweat out any toxins, stress, or repeating scenarios/interactions you’re still thinking about will help you to clear your body and your mind while simultaneously leaving you feeling more like yourself. You’ll also be strengthening your body too which is a win win.

No need to jump into intense workout sessions if this isn’t something you’re already doing; going for a walk is a great full body workout that will allow you to sweat, move, and even get outside. If you’re not able to walk outside, pull out that workout mat, and do some gentle stretching or a gentle workout.

Clear Away the Old:

Let go of the things that are finished for you. Clear up any clutter that could be hanging around, it likes to sneak up when you aren’t looking, often in closets, pantry’s, and well meaning desk piles. That “to be done” stuff adds to the frenetic energy within and around you which over time can make things feel heavy and off. It can lead to overwhelm, feeling frustrated, and that no matter where you look, there’s always something else that needs to get done. Set a timer and do a quick sweep of a room, gathering up anything that is ready to go to the recycle bin, donation station, or to its rightful place in your home.

Cleaning out closets and places where clutter builds can help to lighten your load, literally; while also bringing a sense of peace and calm into your space that translates to more peace and calm in your life too.

Ask for Help:

Let people know what you need. This can be a really tough one for sensitive people, because they don’t want to add anything to anyone else’s plate. However, it’s important to let people who love you know what you need and to ask them for help. It’s also important to ask professional people in your circle for support too. If you need a referral for a service that could help you, ask someone you love and trust who they recommend.  

Schedule the sessions that you need to help you, don’t wait for some elusive time where everything will be easier and you have everything figured out and perfectly balanced. You’re here right now, and asking for help and then receiving that help is part of this whole thing we’re doing called life.

I know you’re more comfortable doing the helping, but helpers need to receive help too. Schedule that reading, massage, babysitter, coaching session, hair appointment, energy treatment, or __________.

Whatever it is that you need right now, you know more than anyone what that thing is, please give yourself permission to honor that message you’re receiving. Allowing yourself to receive is one of the most important and powerful ways to help shift you into a space where you feel more like yourself again while also helping your body to come back to balance and homeostasis.

The waves have been rough out there, and the energy has been a bit of a roller coaster but you know what? You’re still here and you’re doing a great job. As you take a little time today, and tomorrow, and the next day to honor your needs and to pull your energy inward, I think you’re going to find you’re feeling more like yourself again.

Please remember to breathe, to go at your own pace, to treat yourself with the same level of kindness, compassion, and love that you so easily give to everyone else in your life, and to grant yourself a little more grace.

You’re not alone. You’re Doing it. You can Keep Doing It.

If you feel guided to reach out for support from me this month, I look forward to working with you and helping you in any way that I can.

I’m sending you so much love and support from my teeny tiny corner of the world.

With so much love,
Kristy~xoxo

How to Maintain Your Sacred Space While Holding onto Your Sanity...When Your Home is Your Sanctuary…Plus Office, Gym, Movie Theatre, School, etc.

home sweet home.jpg

I was just thinking about you and thought I would drop a line to see how you’re doing.

One of the things that’s been a bit of a struggle for me lately is managing all the new jobs that my home has to do while also finding a way to continue to create a space where my home rises up to greet me and feels like a sanctuary.

Are you finding this to be a bit of a head scratcher too?

Please tell me I’m not alone in this one; it’s been a bit of a one step forward one step back kind of dance during this shelter in place order. I find that like most things right now, there’s this roller coaster of emotions tied into little wins and then little (or larger) setbacks which can feel overwhelming.

A few days ago I decided to sit down and really look at this issue and tune in to see what some of the large issues were that were contributing to this push pull dynamic I was experiencing.

Here’s what showed up for me, I thought maybe it could be helpful and supportive for you too.

The first big issue that I saw was all about Tech.

I know… this is one of those things that’s woven into the fabric of our lives at this point and right now even more so than usual. However, that was the big take away, our homes are literally being filled with wifi, screen energy, and nearly non-stop tech energies pumping into all areas nearly non stop at this point.

For most of us, even those who work from home, this is at another level, especially if you’re home schooling and have a partner working from home too. So, these energies are impacting us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually in ways we aren’t used to, all day every day.

This build up if you will, is starting to have an impact on the way we feel, think, and experience our day to day life.

Some of the symptoms showing up include but aren’t limited to:

  • Lethargy

  • Exhaustion

  • Sadness/Meh

  • Cloudy Thinking

  • Inflammation

  • Joint Pain, Strain, or Tension

  • Feeling Intense Swings in Mood

  • Easily Triggered by Current or Past Situations

  • Looped Thinking Cycles, Usually Negative

  • Agitation, Frustration, Anxiousness, Overwhelm

  • Feeling Like You Can’t Pull Yourself Out of a Funk

  • Sleep Disturbances

  • Insomnia

  • Night Terrors

If you’re experiencing any of these, please know that you’re not alone. There are simple but significant shifts you can make to help support you in clearing these energies from your home.

The other 2 areas that showed up were:

  • Too Much Time Indoors Breathing Recirculated Air and a Lack of Full Spectrum Sunlight

  • Being Ungrounded

The good news here, is that all 3 of these areas are completely connected to one another which means that we can get some traction and forward motion with all of them with a little bit of effort.

There is no one way or right way to do this, only the ways that are right for you today.

I’ve included some ways that showed up for me and I hope that they will be helpful for you and a jumping off place for you to create some custom support systems for you and your home.

Clear Out the Tech Energy:

Literally Open the Windows and Run Your Ceiling Fans to Clear it Out of Your Home

You will bring fresh air into your home at the same time which helps to clear out that recirculated air you’ve been breathing too. Tech energy creates an energetic woven fabric that holds space like an umbrella and pushes the energy down in your home and it pushes you down too. When you air out your home you’ll literally feel a lightness return to your spaces. Highly sensitive people like yourself can often see that the rooms look lighter, brighter, and larger after being aired out.

If it’s already hot or still cold at your home, either open your home up early in the morning or in the evening or bundle up if you have to so you can clear out this dense and unhealthy energy. A few minutes will make a big difference if that’s all you can do. If you can air out your home longer, great go for it.

Turn Off the Tech Energy:

If you can turn off your wifi or at least place your devices on airplane mode at night, it will make a big difference in the way you think and feel in the morning. You will notice that your sleep will be better too.

If it’s possible to reduce the rooms in your home that are using screens and dedicate it to specific spaces, it will help to keep it from being all over everywhere all day long. If this isn’t possible, that’s okay, just try to remember to turn it off when you’re finished instead of leaving all your devices running 24/7. I know it’s easier to let everything go to sleep mode, but if you turn things off, you’ll notice a palpable difference.

Go Outside:

I know this one seems obvious but with so much added screen time and indoor time, it’s easy to forget to go outside. The I just have to finish one more thing syndrome has been supersized for most of us right now and before we know it, the day has passed and we haven’t gone outdoors at all. Instead, we’ve been inside in front of screens under the tech umbrella. (Don’t judge yourself, this is something we’re all experiencing apart, but together right now.)

Even if you can only go for a 15 minute walk around your block, give yourself permission to do that. Schedule it into your phone if that works for you so you’ll get outside to breathe some fresh air, get some full spectrum sunlight, and stretch your muscles. Our bodies are like sponges so all that tech energy is sitting inside of us too. When we move and sweat, we can get it cleared out.

If you have a fancy home gym and you’re working out regularly, way to go! I still encourage you to get outside even if just for that walk around the block. Getting outside helps us to get grounded and get more connected to our natural rhythms again and feel more like ourselves again too. Getting outside also clears our aura and energy body. Win. Win.

Clean Your Home:

Again, this one seems super obvious, but cleaning is a sacred act (while it may not feel super sacred while scrubbing your tub) it is a powerful way to clear out energies that you don’t want in your home while infusing it with intentions, blessings, and the energy that you want to keep within your home. This is where we get the, your home is your sanctuary, or your home should rise up to greet you when you walk through the door. Both of these adages are true and impact all areas of our lives.

Whether you’re lightly cleaning or you’re giving your sanctuary a deep clean and refresh, know that you’re resetting and rebooting your home back to its factory setting that you’ve chosen for yourself and your family. You can always add upgrades by including new intentions and blessings for your home while you clean.

Work With Your Angels and Guides:

You can ask your angels and your guides to clear your home and property of any energies that are not a fit for you and your home. (This doesn’t exempt you from cleaning.) This is a beautiful way to clear on an even deeper level while also bringing your spiritual support team into your day to day life.

Smudge:

You can smudge and sage your home and property to clear any dense energies that you would like to move along. Research also shows that sage is antibacterial and antimicrobial so it can support clearing the air in your home. Please never leave your sage burning unattended and keep away from little hands and paws.

Essential Oils:

Diffusing essential oils can be a deep emotional support while also filling your home with soothing, uplifting, and calming energies based on the oil you choose to diffuse. There are endless combinations you can choose to nurture a positive environment in your home. There are many oils that are antibacterial and antimicrobial too. Essential oils are made from plants, so bringing them into your home helps with grounding too. (If you’re looking for essential oils, send me a message and I’ll help you.)

Blessing Floor Wash:

I love this one. This one always feels very palpable to me and it makes me feel like I’m bringing something from the ancient past into my current modern life. I also love that you can make it different each time based on the intentions and needs of your current situation. It feels like a blessing, energy treatment, and huge hug for my home all at the same time.

You’ll Need:

  • Your favorite natural hard floor cleaner

  • Mop and Bucket

  • Water

  • Variety of Fresh Picked Herbs from your kitchen garden (or from the farmers market or from your neighbor) Lavender, Rosemary, Mint, and Sage are some great options, but choose whatever calls to you to create your blessing floor wash.

How To:

  • Fill your mop bucket like usual with water and cleaner of your choice

  • Rub the whole fresh herbs between your hands to release the scent and oils and then add them to the water (no need to cut or separate the flowers from the stems)

  • Add intentions and blessings to the water

  • You can ask your angels and guides to bless your water too if you feel guided.

  • Then, mop your home as usual.

The herbaceous water will fill your home while also cleaning and blessing your home and all who live with you.

You will be able to smell all the herbs and feel the shift from the ground up in your home. This is a physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually infused clearing and you will be able to feel it.

I hope these ideas will help you to clear you and your home from these heavy or dense energies that are impacting all of us right now. Please know that you’re not alone even if you’re sheltering in place alone.

Being gentle with yourself is the first and foremost area to focus on right now.

Try to go at your own pace and treat yourself with tender loving care as we all take this one day at a time.

My hope is that some of these ideas will be a fit for you which will support you in feeling more like yourself and support you in treating yourself with kindness and care.

Please know that there’s no one way to do this, there’s only the ways that are right for you today, right now in this moment.

I’m sending you so much support and gentle energy from my little corner of the world.

We’re in this together even though we’re physically apart.

With love,

Kristy~ xoxo

Why Increasing Water Leads to Increased Intuition

People ask me for tips on increasing their intuition all the time. One of my favorite ways to open up those intuitive pathways is by increasing water. I think this one goes under the radar for people sometimes; maybe it’s because it seems so simple that it gets overlooked, but it’s one of my favorite go to ways to fire up the intuitive muscles. There’s several ways to increase water and they all work wonderfully but I suggest using all of them. You may not be able to do all of them all the time but you can mix up the ways you increase water based on what’s right for you and your lifestyle. I’ve included some ways below but please feel free to create your own recipe for increased water in your own life.

Drink More Water:

This one tends to be the most overlooked tip for increasing intuition.
Many people overestimate how much water they’re drinking in a day. Water helps the brain and the body work efficiently and we are interdependent on water to maintain our health and life.
Without drinking water, we can’t live very long. Dehydration contributes to a long list of issues and one of those includes challenges with thinking and focusing. When you’re dehydrated it’s also more challenging to connect with your spiritual gifts and intuition.

Water also helps to move toxins out of the body; allowing the body to physically be more clear, light, and receptive. When the body is weighed down or polluted, the intuitive channels can become cloudy and weighed down too. It’s similar to being in really bad traffic on the freeway because there is an issue up ahead. Everyone and everything becomes impacted by that issue which slows everything down and doesn’t allow for things to move along as smoothly as they should.

Some people count tea and fruit juices as water consumption and add it to their daily amount of water. I’ve found that drinking water and hitting the amount that’s right for your body is a game changer in opening up and increasing your intuition.

If you divide your body weight in half and drink that amount in ounces, you will be drinking the *suggested amount of water for your body.
(If you weigh 120 pounds, you would drink 60 ounces of water each day to reach your daily suggested amount. This measurement may vary depending on your particular situation, please check with your health care professional about what’s right for you.)

Feel free to enjoy other beverages along with your daily water but drinking water in its natural state without tea added to it etc. is the big game changer. It’s fine to infuse your water with cucumber, lemon, or other fruits and veggies that you like. Just avoid counting caffeine and sugar spikes as your daily water intake.

Out of Sight Out of Mind:

If you’re like me and forget to drink water unless it’s right next to you, don’t worry. You can still get your water in for the day, but you’ll have to carry it around with you. The great news is that there’s lots of water bottles on the market now, there’s one for everyone. Go get one that you like or dig yours out from the back of your cupboard and fill it first thing in the morning and carry it around with you. It will make it so much easier to remember to drink your water and you’ll notice that you’ll remember to refill it once it gets low.

Listen to Water:

The sound of water is very calming, clearing, and helps the body to release and relax. Maybe you’ve noticed that when you’re at the beach, lake, or even near a water fountain you begin to let go and feel more relaxed. Some people can physically feel tension or pain reducing when they hear the sound of water.

When we reduce or remove stress we can more easily access our intuition and messages from our angels, guides, and departed loved ones. Whether you have a water fountain in your home or office, live near a large body of water, or you listen to water sounds on a music file; you can increase your intuition by spending time listening to the sounds of water.

Take a Dip:

Getting into water is a quick and effective way to clear away the noise of the world and to calm the mind and the body. Just like listening to water helps the mind, body, and spirit to release and relax; getting into water does the same thing but it’s even more powerful. Swimming in a large body of water, soaking in a bath, and even taking a shower can help to open up your intuition. Many people report coming up with ideas, inspiration, and solutions when they’re in water; maybe you’ve experienced the same thing. I’ve received a lot of intuitive messages and downloads while in and under water and know a lot of intuitive folks who talk about the clarity they receive from being in and under water. All water supports increased intuition but I’ve found that getting into salt water has a super charging effect on the connection and clarity. Any way that you can get into water, including your swimming pool, hot tub, or bath tub will help you to continue to open up and nurture your intuitive muscles.

I hope you’ll enjoy finding ways to increase your connection with water and enjoy opening up your intuition at the same time.
