Do you feel guilty every time you try to rest? You sit down for five minutes and a voice in your head starts listing everything you should be doing instead. That’s what we talked about in my live workshop, Rest Without Guilt, and the replay is available free. We had a lovely conversation about the voice that makes us feel guilty when we rest. We talked about three versions of it: 🌙 The Ledger keeps score and says you haven’t done enough to earn your rest yet. 🌙 The Helper says everyone else’s needs come first, so your rest can wait. 🌙 The Clock says there isn’t time, and resting now means falling behind. Lately mine has been the Clock. Everyone on the call had either the Ledger or the Clock. Which one sounds like yours? What you’ll get from the replay: ✨ How to recognize which guilt voice shows up for you ✨ Why rest is a real self-love practice and part of taking care of yourself, not something you have to earn ✨ Small ways to rest that still count, even on your busiest or lowest-energy days ✨ The Rest Menu Tool, which helps you choose a way to rest based on how much energy you have. The link is with the replay. Who it’s for: Midlife women with unpredictable energy who are tired of feeling guilty every time they slow down. The replay and the Rest Menu Tool are inside my free community, Low Tide: Rest Without Guilt. We’re a group of midlife women learning to care for ourselves the way we care for everyone else, with self-love practices that bend when our energy does. Free members can watch the replay through Nov 15, so grab it soon. After that, it will only be available to Premium/VIP. 💜 Join free here: https://www.skool.com/sacred-self-sanctuary-1128/about You don’t have to earn your rest. 🌙

Here's the replay for the November edition of the Literacy Lounge's speaker series featuring Dr. DeShanna Reed. It is a must see for parents of neurodivergent children, for parents of struggling readers, and quite frankly for anyone who believes a parent is a child's best advocate. Go ahead, take a listen ... you won't regret it. Then drop a line in the comments and let me know your thoughts.

Or you've walked into a room feeling perfectly fine, only to find yourself feeling anxious, uncomfortable or unsettled. We often assume that because we're experiencing an emotion, it must have begun within us. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲? I'm Kerry Upham, and through my years of working with emotional energy, I've discovered another way of exploring our emotional experiences. One that considers the invisible emotional environment we share with others, and how we may connect with and experience emotional energy without consciously recognising what's happening. I'd love to invite you to my one-hour online presentation: 𝗘𝗠𝗢𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦 & 𝗘𝗫𝗣𝗟𝗢𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡𝗦: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻? 📅 𝗧𝘂𝗲𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟰𝘁𝗵 𝗡𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 🕛 𝟭𝟮:𝟬𝟬 𝗻𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗘𝗗𝗧 (𝗠𝗲𝗹𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲/𝗦𝘆𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘆) 💻 𝗢𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 | 𝟭-𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🎟️ 𝗥𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 Together, we'll explore: * Why emotional reactions can sometimes seem bigger than the situation. * The possibility that not every emotion we experience necessarily began within us. * How shared emotional environments may influence our experiences and reactions. * A simple way to begin noticing your emotions differently. You don't need any previous knowledge of emotional-energy work. Just bring your curiosity and an openness to explore a different perspective.

It's about developing a different understanding of what we're experiencing and what we continue carrying. 💚 𝗜'𝗱 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗲!
