PeacefulU: Heal Your Leaky Soul & Energy

Why is this quiet Buddhist tap dancing on a rainbow today? 🌈🙏

After two years of advocacy, the government has announced plans to indefinitely exclude mental illness alone from MAiD eligibility. Now we need to see that commitment become law.

My advocacy was never against someone’s right to choose. My mother chose MAiD on May 5, 2021. I believed her suffering and I continue speaking in her memory.

My own lifelong symptoms were repeatedly met with “normal labs.” After reaching a safer environment and completing my DBM-5™ detox, those symptoms disappeared. On New Year’s Eve 2024, I put down the cane I had needed for four months.

Next month, I turn 60. 💜

In my new Substack article, you’ll learn:

• Why my mother’s Agriculture Canada workplace and its documented building hazards belong in our story.

• How years of physical suffering and dismissal shaped my advocacy.

• The recovery I experienced and why I share my life’s work.

• How housing insecurity, food insecurity and environmental exposures affect our opportunities to rest and recover.

• What I am documenting through my independent inquiry into dental histories and wider health experiences.

• Why I am also fighting for environmental-illness recognition and a no-scent law.

Coming this weekend: the deep dive into mould exposure, buildings and workplaces of concern.

“You deserve to know the root of your suffering. You deserve a chance to heal.
You cannot heal in the same environment that is making you sick”

Is your home helping your body heal or is it keeping your nervous system on edge? 🌿 Can changing your physical space actually sp*ed up your body's cellular healing? 🏡💚

When we talk about autophagy—our body's internal recycling crew that clears out worn-out cell parts—we often focus on fasting, green tea and exercise.

But there is a massive missing piece: your environment!

If your home feels cluttered or chaotic, your nervous system stays on high alert.
That makes deep, restorative sleep and true physical recovery so much harder to achieve.
Be mindful mould loves dust.

During Prime Big Deal Days (Oct 6 & 7), you can grab the exact home furnishings, lighting and wellness essentials I rely on to maintain harmony and support daily recovery.

3,239 days addiction peace.
463 Sober Soul Peace Sundays. 💜

Some days were messy. Some were hard. Some came with so many tears.

And I learned to lean into what was hurting instead of numbing it.

For those of us raised to keep quiet, stay strong and keep a stiff upper lip, crying could feel like breaking a rule.

We can stop apologizing for having feelings.

“Before it became an addiction, perhaps there was a little Soul trying to self-soothe.”

🌿 Dee’s Diary Ep. 3 is now on Soul Peace TV:
How I Ended a 30-Year Alcohol Addiction.

This Sober October, come hear the story behind my drinking rituals, why movies needed to take a break too and how Mothering the Unmothered™ became part of learning to care for Little Me.

We explore recognizing triggers, replacing old rituals and a gentle bedtime practice for remembering how you cared for yourself today.

Did you know that words put human biology into a direct Cell Danger Response?

Welcome to Flashback Friday on Toxic Talk TV with Big Brother Season 28.

Rest assured, the winner is not revealed in this clip for anyone catching up on the finale!

Words are energy.

They either build peace or prolong trauma.

It is not mental—it is environmental.

Spotting narcissist patterns starts with watching how language gets weaponized.

Narcissistic communication relies heavily on casual insults, gaslighting and using mental health terms as adjectives to diminish and disarm others.

For many healing from lifelong trauma, those harmful clinical labels originally came from the very people who were supposed to be protectors.

When protectors fail to guard peace, those heavy words sink deep into the subconscious.

Before long, those exact same toxic words get repeated to the inner child and the eternal soul within.

This 3-minute video captures toxic talk on television to expose these exact narcissist patterns so they can be spotted, understood and stopped.

We are all connected.
We are all nature.
We are all energy.

Choosing to be part of the solution for peace on Earth—and not part of the pollution—starts with learning to spot these patterns and choosing better words today.

An orange shirt. A little girl. A grandmother’s love.🧡

Phyllis Webstad was six when the new orange shirt her grandmother bought her was taken away at residential school.It was never returned.

Her story asks us to consider what happens when a child is separated from family, culture, language and belonging — and whether we are willing to listen to the truth.

Today, September 30, on Canada’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day, we pause to honour residential school Survivors, the children who never returned home and the families carrying that grief.

In this deep dive, I invite us to look beyond surface awareness and consider the conditions that shape our well-being.

For 50 years, my suffering was dismissed as mental illness.

What I came to understand was how deeply my health had been affected by mould exposure, chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS), chronic stress and a life spent in survival mode — with food insecurity, housing insecurity and 50 years of sexual and domestic violence.

I began to understand my body’s prolonged alarm through the lens of the cell danger response.

That lived experience informs my advocacy:

listen to the whole story, examine the conditions surrounding a struggling Soul, work to find the root cause and offer real support.

Listening means taking someone’s suffering seriously and asking what has happened to them, what surrounds them and what support they need.

In this YouTube deep dive:

🧡The legacy of residential schools and the importance of facing painful truths.

🧡 The distinct identities of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities.

🧡 How trauma, living conditions and environmental exposures can affect well-being.

🧡 Why High Sensing Souls and firstborn fixers need compassionate, practical support.

🧡 Ways to support Indigenous-led solutions and carry awareness into action.

As Su***de Prevention Awareness Month comes to a close, may our care continue beyond the calendar.

A drowning Soul does not need a lecture about swimming.

They need a hand.

When someone goes silent, send a gentle text:

“From 1 to 10, how are you feeling today?”
No lecture. No pressure to explain.

They may not have the energy to reply while they are still treading water.

Keep checking in gently.
When they connect, share:

“You are not alone. I love you. I care. I am here for you.”
Then listen.

Let them tell you what they need.

Why It Was Never Mental.
It Was Environmental Poisoning.

May we listen with tenderness, learn with care and act with responsibility.

You are not alone.🙏🧡

Today’s Soul Peace Offering for Microbiome, Mental Health and Mother Earth Monday🙏
Did you know your doctor is there to manage your symptoms with prescriptions, not get to the root cause.

For years, my mother worked in a government building in Ottawa that was contaminated with toxic mold.

Her body started breaking down.

Her legs swelled up, her fatigue was overwhelming and her entire system was on fire with inflammation.

But instead of testing the air, doctors handed her a new psychiatric label every few months for decades.

They loaded her with synthetic pills to numb her symptoms, completely ignoring the toxic building she sat in every day.

On those medications, my mother became a stranger.

Feeling dismissed in hospital hallways and failed by medicine, she tragically chose MAiD in 2021—with her mind completely clouded by trauma, mould and heavy pharmaceuticals.💔

It broke my heart, but it opened my eyes forever because my life long acute symptoms all vanished within a few weeks after a created a detox with the DBM-5.

I had to save my life when no doctor could help me.

This after years of being medically gaslight and then my body stopped and was shutting down.

All they saw for 7 years was clean labs so it must be mental.
They said it over and over over.
It was never mental illness. It was environmental illness.

When you put synthetic pills into a body trapped in a toxic environment, you are just putting black tape over the check engine light.

You are adding chemical static to a terrified nervous system.

We have to stop treating our bodies like chemical experiments and start honouring them as living ecosystems.

A few fellow stargazers and I spent nearly an hour watching the stars last night. The sky over Ottawa was so clear I could see the Great Square of Pegasus near the almost-full Moon. ✨🌕


Tonight is the Harvest Moon! Look east after sunset for the Moon with Saturn nearby. If you’re awake before sunrise, look for bright Jupiter too — I’ve been loving our morning sky lately.

And what a day for Ottawa! We’re celebrating 200 years since the founding of Bytown. The Ottawa 200 Block Party is free at City Hall until 10 p.m. and OC Transpo is free all weekend.

Here’s “Moon Moon Shine On Me,” the full moon love song written for fellow Luna Lovers. The full song with lyrics is now on my Momma Lovey Peace Music YouTube channel: 💜

🍁 Canada’s Capital falls into autumn tonight. 🍁

Tonight we cross that beautiful seasonal doorway into astronomical fall — and tomorrow we wake to our first full day of autumn. 🍂

On the last day of every summer, I have a little ritual.

I take off my shoes, put my bare feet on Mother Earth and hug a tree. 🌳

Yesterday I stayed there for quite some time.

I thanked her.

Thank you for grounding me.
Thank you for holding me.
Thank you for the shade, the breeze, the birds, the water and the wild.
Thank you for another summer beneath your trees.

Just bare feet, bark, breath and a Soul filled with gratitude. 💜

And now Mother Nature begins changing her clothes. 🍁

She doesn't cling to her leaves.

She changes colour.
She releases.
She rests.
And eventually, she begins again.

Perhaps that's one of fall's most beautiful lessons:

We don't always have to hold on to honour what we loved.
Sometimes gratitude is how we let go. 🍂

And Mother Nature is giving us a beautiful sky to welcome the season too. If you're awake before sunrise, look for brilliant Jupiter shining in our morning sky. ✨

Then this weekend, look up again for the beautiful Harvest Moon. 🌕

It felt like the perfect time to share one of my newest pieces of music:

🍂 Golden Leaf Dance 🍂

Tomorrow I'll be dancing barefoot into the first full day of fall with this one. 🎶🍁

Happy fall, beautiful Souls.

I've lived with suicidal ideation from age 5 - 58 and I showed up with a permasmile, addictions for 50 years, grief, food struggles, food insecurity housing hardship, homelessness, relationship wounds and shame.

I've also made choices that harmed my own body and Soul.

These are all trauma responses.

The more trauma you've experienced, the more suffering you will experience.

Now we learn how to self-soothe in a healthy way for our inner child~Soul.
