Massage isn’t just something that happens to your body. It’s a practice of listening to it and advocating for it as well. 💆🏼‍♀️

During my session, I notice when my body says “I’d like more pressure there” or “mmm, that feels amazing.” Younger versions of me would’ve stayed quiet, viewing them as the expert here. Yet now, I’m able verbalize that to enhance my experience! 👏

Using your voice in a space built for care is an amazing opportunity to practice using your voice; it’s a different form of nervous system work. The massage container is meant to be collaborative- you have your internal experience that only you can feel, while they can share valuable insights of what they notice as well! 🗣️

Mind and body heal together. Learn to listen to the whispers. 😌

Thank you Brie Schafer and Orlando Massage, Energy Work and Sound Healing for creating a beautiful, soothing space where that felt safe. 🤍

Where do you feel safe to speak your inner truth?

Chatter, chatter, chatter goes the neurodivergent brain… 🌀

I wrote this poem this week about the constant pull for my attention. 🤯

Maybe it’s a luteal thing… maybe it’s a HSP thing… or maybe it’s the never-ending demand of tasks to complete in our modern world. 📝

A part of me yearns for a slower pace, a softer life… and yet I go camping and still my mind is active. 🧠

Being present and consciously choosing what to give your attention is a habit, a practice you cultivate. 🌱

Writing this week helped me to anchor and then move through some tasks. What’s helped you recently? 💫

On June 12, 2015, my life was forever changed by a music festival. 💫

Zoe begged me to go with her the two years prior and I was so against it. I didn’t camp, like to get dirty, or even listen to EDM at the time. Since I was moving to Orlando in August for grad school, I finally conceded and agreed to go. 🏕️

I could not have imagined how attending Bonnaroo that summer would shape the trajectory of my life. I now specialize in psychedelic-assisted therapy and own Mindful Perceptions Counseling. Hard to imagine this expansion without the inspiration and freedom I’ve experienced in the festival scene. 🌈

We were ODESZA groupies for years following and attended Okeechobee together twice, Electric Forest, Bonnaroo again, and EDC multiple times. It’s been 4 years since I raved with my festie bestie and I am thrilled that she is joining me for EDC this year in one short month!! zoelle_wellness 🪼

Take this as an example that when you trust your friends and yourself, you may find yourself in experiences that can impact you in ways you didn’t know you needed! To heal you in ways you did not expect. 🦄

I’m curious, which experiences have given you a similar awakening? 🛸

Mindfulness is easy when life is calm. It’s a different thing entirely when you wake up to your pet being injured. 😿

Here’s the thing though — this is why I practice grounding on the calm days. Not because I’ll need it then, but because regulation is a skill, and skills have to be built before you need them. 👷‍♀️

The nervous system doesn’t learn to self-soothe in the middle of a crisis. It learns from repetition, on the ordinary days, so the resources are already there when things get hard. ⛑️

That practice enabled me to think clearly enough to have my friend take pictures of his eye, take a jacket to put over his carrier, pack what I actually needed — water, a snack, my coloring book — and cancel my workout class. ✅

Some may think we’re supposed to feel chaotic in the midst of a crisis yet I know myself well enough to know that what’s “normal” isn’t what helps me stay regulated and handle a stressful situation. 👏

Presence isn’t reserved for the good days. It’s built on them, so we’re prepared for the hard ones too. 😌

What if the pattern isn’t the problem — it’s a sign to look somewhere else? 🌿

This Friday, I’m leading The Synergy of Healing — a 90-minute workshop on the whole-person wellness model: how the physical, nervous system, energetic, and relational domains interact, and what becomes available to us when the usual approach isn’t moving anything ✨

This experiential workshop is for helpers, healers, and clinicians of any kind who want to care for others from steadier ground. 😌

CE is available for FL mental health providers and you’ll receive 90 day access to the recording if you can’t make it live‼️

Mindful Monday Morning Lessons 💫
*
When we notice what’s going on in our body and we use the tension as guidance, we are able to access more expansion and release than if we just pushed through the discomfort.
*
This process requires a mediation between the mind and body – what we are supposed to do – what we said we would do – a delicate dance of discovering what’s in our best interest in THIS moment.
*
Today, that led me to meditate and do yoga instead of waking up early to make it to my ItGrlFit lagree class. For you, it may look like making breakfast at home or not washing your hair this morning.
*
Your body knows what it needs, we just have to slow down long enough to listen and understand what our next best step is.

What do you need most today for restoration?

Wherever you are, near or far, take 20 seconds for yourself to pause. 😌
*
An opportunity to return to your breath, return to your body, and return to this moment. 🩵

Tonight I gave myself this: one page, one pen, no rush. 🎨
*
There’s nothing to finish here. Nothing to get right. Just dot by dot, color by color, letting my hands slow down so my mind can follow.
*
This is what presence can look like — not a grand ritual, just fifteen quiet minutes of being here, now, with yourself.

Noticing how being “locked in” is causing more tension? While chopping vegetables I realized that when I’m super focused, I hold my breath and start to feel more tension in my head and body.
*
To counter this, I pause when I notice it. I take a deeper breath. I soften my gaze and shake it out. I direct my attention to the music playing.
*
What helps you to loosen your lock?

This Synergy of Healing is created for people who care for and offer support for others and want to broaden their scope and receive some tools to support themselves as
well.

Includes yet not limited to therapists, yoga teachers, nurses, massage therapists, doctors, energy practicioners, etc.

Most clinicians were trained in a model that treats the mind as the way in: name the distortion, build the skill, process the memory. It works — until it doesn’t, and most of us
weren’t trained on what comes next.

From the other side, medical providers and bodyworkers may sense there’s more beneath the surface, yet are only trained to treat the presenting symptoms.

A person needs mind, body, and spirit to synergize in order to thrive — treating them in isolation only tells part of the story.

Throughout the workshop, we’ll move between education, experiential practice, and discussion. What you notice about your own patterns and parts becomes an example of
what you bring back into the room with the people you support.

Even if you can’t make the live virtual event, you receive access to the recording for 90 days!
