“The dark does not destroy the light; it defines it. It's our fear of the dark that casts our joy into the shadows.” #brenebrown Brown, 🌓 I just wanted to share THREE quick thoughts from the treatment room.... 🧞♀️ ONE. There is ALOT going on for EVERYONE right now. Mostly everyone coming in has feeling extremely overwhelmed, anxious, and in the unknown. We have our regular stressors and then have our additional covid-times stressors. TWO. You are stronger than you think! We are resilient and capable! We often don't know how strong or courageous we are until we are facing intense challenge. You will be surprised at how strong you are! THREE. You are not alone AND we need each other! Now more than ever It's important to receive support. Lean on your family, friends, practitioners, your community. We are here for each other. 🌻 As Summer gently turns to Late Summer - please prioritize self-care and be easy on yourself. For some practice tools, resources and to learn more about this time of year from a Chinese medicine perspective - Read my thoughts on Five Element Acupuncture & Late Summer.
