Does your PMDD lead you feel isolated, alone and misunderstood around others...even with friends, family and colleagues? Do you suffer with social anxiety over chatting with a neighbor or making a routine phone call? Does feeling unseen, unheard, and sensitive to rejection cause tension between you and your partner?

This is all super common in PMDD. I myself have experienced every one of these issues!

Then, I found a mindfulness practice that helped me to feel less alone in my struggles and more compassionate with myself and with others. It leveled the 'playing field' in a way, because I no longer saw myself as uniquely broken and suffering.

Over time, I was able to show up as myself around other people, without feeling so anxious and misunderstood!

In this episode I share:

  • The practice that helped me to  feel less anxious, different, and alone around others.
  • How this practice helped me to show up as myself again, with more ease.

I believe that you can get there too and I'll be sharing this guided meditation next week, before taking a holiday break!
