The most important question right now

April 07, 2022 in anxiety management, coping strategies, mental wellness, trauma recovery, art for sale

I’m curious, what’s one thing in your life lately that is helping you feel anchored (at home and solidly in your body) in the current moment?

Don’t worry if you don’t have an answer come straight away!

Most of us are not used to noticing this. If you are struggling with it, you are NOT alone!

Coming back to this question and doing 1 thing that helps me bring me back to my body each day has been one of the most powerful tools in cultivating a bright and juicy life, even with all the awfully upsetting things going on around me.*

When I’m too overwhelmed to think of anything else, I listen to this guided meditation**:


Perhaps it will bring you peace, too?

This is just one of many options in my toolkit.

I’ll be sharing more in coming weeks!


What’s 1 thing that helps you come back and anchor in your body lately?

Hit “reply” and let me know?

(There are no wrong answers! Sometimes it might be scrolling tiktok - I do that, too! I was guilty about it but learned recently it can be a legit way of regulating our nervous system when we are feeling overloaded. No wonder I’m spending so much time there lately! You can even see how I danced as I wrote this to you, here!)

*Hello: flood-effected peeps, people having to continue lockdown-life while the rest of the world opens up, people who have lost loved ones recently, people living with long-covid, people lost and struggling to work out what next after losing their job/having their work and livelihood turned upside down, health workers and counsellours and psychologists and social workers supporting all of us whilst you are struggling yourselves; I see you and am sending so much love. You are not forgotten and I think of you every day. I’m so sorry you’re going through such a rough time. You deserve more support. You might be feeling alone but you are not.

**Best with headphones. Make sure to turn of sound notifications before you press “play”. It’s incredible but quiet, so you’ll need to turn volume up. And remove headphones when she says “namaste” so you don’t get blasted by youtube autoplaying another clip or ad when it finishes.
