Stress

Missing Things…

April 25, 2020 by Carol Leave a Comment

It’s been 37 days since I last worked on anyone in my office. I love doing remote healing sessions, but I miss the physical connections, I miss touching people, I miss my orchids beaming their own form of healing energy from my office window sill…

We are all missing things, in this strange time, and we all need support. The isolation, disruption of our routines, economic stress and devastation, the fear and anxiety of getting sick, losing our livelihoods, or losing someone dear to us blend with the collective trauma of what is happening to our world. Many people seem surprised by how un-moored they feel. It’s more than just not knowing what day it is, it’s a greater disorientation from how dramatically life has changed and how quickly and unexpectedly it happened. How, even when we see other people, we can’t see their faces, their smiles through their masks… How we have to constantly monitor how far away we are, stifle the impulse to hug a friend, the wave of fear at regular, simple tasks like getting groceries or mail. How can we not miss the things that have been our anchors? How can we not feel the effects in our bodies, our hearts, our spirits? 

As a holistic healthcare practitioner, as a healing guide and coach, I consider it an honor to help you find balance and grounding and centering in these wobbly and challenging times. To find the peace that lies deep within your heart, the unexpected gifts of this pandemic enforced time out, the groundedness and safety of living in your body.

May we all stay safe and healthy and connected to one another.
with love and support,
~Carol

Coronavirus – Supporting Your Immune System & Office Update

March 13, 2020 by Carol Leave a Comment

As we do our best to prepare and take precautions, it is also vitally important that we tend to our stress levels, our immune systems and our body, heart, mind and spirit.
 Why do some people get very ill and others have a mild or undetectable response to any virus? That depends on many factors, especially on how well their immune system can respond to the challenge. The function of our immune systems is to recognize what is me, what is not-me; what is my body, my food, and what is a virus or bacteria or toxin and then mount the appropriate defense to keep us healthy. It is very important to support our immune systems to do their best to respond appropriately when confronted with any virus. So this is an especially crucial time to nourish ourselves on all levels – eat well, avoid stressors like sugar and junk food, take appropriate supplements, get plenty of sleep and stay connected to people we care about.
Fear produces stress hormones that send energy to our fight or flight mechanisms, taking valuable energy from our immune systems and our ability to digest and heal and repair.
