Tap-alongs • 16m
I know from speaking to so many of you that slow motility, constipation, and the perpetual management of the bowels is something that takes up a lot of mind space. (I get it, I really do.)
I know from personal experience when I lost all gut motility how energy intensive it is to be backed up and how it's the fastest way to spiral into thoughts of negativity, hopelessness, and overwhelm.

So curious: what does this sequence open up for you? What else are you ready to release today?

Choosing Connection
Some of you may have learned that you couldn't co-regulate with your caregivers at a very early age: they weren't reliable or consistent, so you had to "survive" in other ways.
This coping pattern can turn into avoidance, self-isolation, shutting down, and even dissociating from our experience...
