If you’re struggling, or want to know how to support someone and be an ally for mental health 🫶 this message and episode is for you! 💕💕
In this last of a special series to honor Mental Health Awareness month, I share both a somatic + spiritual approach to trauma recovery and suicide prevention.
As something I've been a devout advocate for many years in my trauma informed practice, is knowing how to support someone (and yourself) to avoid isolation + feeling like a "lone wolf" in your struggles to survive, be seen, and fully understood in your asking for help.
To truly feel SAFE when seeking support is challenging in a world that doesn't quite offer the tools and resources for people struggling inside.
I speak to concepts like common humanity, compassion, and honoring those who we have lost in their legacy to be a light for others in their own darkness.
I also pay respects to the life and legacy of Grayson Murray of the PGA tour, who we lost to this struggle.
In his beautiful words,"When you're tired of fighting, let someone fight for you." @graysonmurray
We continue to fight for you, Grayson and all who struggle. This is for YOU.
