The heart that breaks open can contain the whole universe.

Centering your wellness
can feel impossible when you’re used to ignoring your own needs and desires. But you know better than anyone the cost of living this way: You feel exhausted and overwhelmed, out of touch with yourself.
You long to come home to your feelings, your wisdom, living in alignment with your truth.
Sound Familiar?
Anxious Attachments/Over-functioning
Clinging to others or your to-do list can mean that facing a moment of stillness makes you squirm. It’s hard to stop doing, and you avoid slowing down because it feels uncomfortable. There’s a sense of disquiet inside and you’re not sure why.
People Pleasing
You bend over backward to make others feel okay. But things never seem quite good enough, and you don’t set boundaries because you feel guilty.
Struggles with Control/Letting Go
You find it hard to accept the way things are if they don’t align with how you want them to be. Your mind works to fix or regain control, and the notion of allowing or letting go feels unsettling.
Hiding | Masking
You adjust and mold to fit whatever the moment calls for. The authentic you is so far from view you’ve begun to wonder where or if that person exists. It’s just easier to live with the facade than admit to anyone that you’re suffering.
