What I've Learned From My Clients PART 2 Love Yourself to Unlock your Freedom, Peace, and Joy, and Mental Health Feb 19, 2023

Show notes

Love yourself to unlock your freedom, peace, light, and joy. Navigating relationships with narcissistic or low-empathy parents can be complex for highly sensitive individuals, often leaving them feeling anxious or self-doubting. Embracing the reality of one’s upbringing and committing to self-love and healing can foster resilience and improve mental health, setting the stage for inner peace and healthier connections in life.

I have learned an important lesson from my clients about parenting and relationships - that it is necessary work to figure out how to negotiate with parents who have a mix of narcissistic and warm traits. I have also learned that some families have a level of mind control and dysfunction that is cult-like, and that it is important to draw boundaries and speak up for yourself. In addition, I have seen the benefits of unconventional therapy including psychedelics. Finally, I have learned that love is more than just a feeling, but a practice, consistency, faith and respect for yourself and others.

"What doesn't kill us does make us stronger. That cliche is true. And after it makes us stronger, it also helps us become freer."

Here's what I cover in this episode:

1. How can understanding one's own family dynamics help bring peace and freedom?

2. What are the potential benefits of using psychedelics as a mental health treatment?

3. What does it mean to practice self-love, and how can it help us relate to others?

How Existentialism Can Empower HSPs to Transform Their Mental Health Feb 05, 2023

Show notes

Existentialism is a philosophical framework that emphasizes personal choice and the creation of meaning in life. This belief is centered around the idea of freedom of choice, that we have the power to make choices in life, regardless of our circumstances. It also involves rejecting the victim mentality, taking control of our lives and making choices that positively impact us. Victor Frankel, a renowned psychiatrist, explored the idea of finding meaning in life through his book, "Man's Search for Meaning." He encouraged individuals to forge their own path and create meaning in their lives. Existentialism also touches on the concept of existence preceding essence, questioning our beliefs, embracing personal responsibility, authenticity, and recognizing the absurdity in life. Are you ready to unlock the power of personal choice and find deeper meaning in life? In this episode, we delve into how existentialism empowers individuals, especially Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs), to embrace radical personal responsibility. Discover how mental health can be transformed through the freedom of choice and the journey of creating your own meaning. Tune in to learn how to harness your inner strength, thrive, and supercharge your mental health

Show notes

In this weeks show, we welcome new listeners and will explore various mental health terms used on the show, specifically focusing on Highly Sensitive People (HSP) and ways to understand, embrace, and love our highly sensitive selves.

Unlocking the Power of Intuition: An Exercise for Empaths, HSPs, Survivors and Seekers - Part 1 Dec 18, 2022

Show notes

It's a common dilemma for empaths, HSPs, survivors, and seekers alike: how can intuition be used as an exercise for our healing and growth? We often feel stuck between head knowledge and the unknown, and it's difficult to decipher emotion and our response to it. Today, I'm offering you an invitation. I'm guiding you through an exercise that I like to call The Intuitive Mind-Body Exercise - an exercise that will help you strengthen your relationship with yourself and strengthen your confidence in deciphering messages over time. This episode will take you on a mental health journey, one that requires a bit of letting go and allowing me to guide you. As we move forward, I'll be offering up different language and ideas. We'll be visiting our head, heart, and gut space, taking note of all that we experience. By the end, I'll outline in detail how I used the Intuitive Mind-Body exercise and how mental health and intuition play pivotal roles in your daily life.
