The Details Are Important

Working to create more space & ease from pain or challenging emotions? Slow down, tune into your body & mind, and get to know the little details about what you’re experiencing in the moment. When you slow down in mindfulness and get into the granular details of your experience, the activity of two important neural networks shifts significantly, helping your nervous system move from “fight or flight” to “rest & digest.” Learn more here about how a specific mindfulness practice can turn down the volume on intense feelings, and the neuroscience behind why it works so well.

Heal With Grace Podcast Interview

I recently had the tremendous pleasure of being a guest on the "Heal with Grace" podcast! In this podcast I share how my journey from finance to healing work was shaped by growing up with parents who had chronic pain. Together, we explore how subconscious beliefs, stress, and identity patterns shape our physical experiences—and how understanding these hidden dynamics can unlock true healing. I also share real client stories and practical ways to reconnect with the body, shift limiting patterns, and establish a sense of safety for lasting relief. Have a listen!

The Pain Equation

When you've thrown everything at your pain with minimal results it can feel like you're staring down the most complicated math problem you can imagine (like this poor guy in the image). The good news? Advances in the neuroscience of pain over the last decade or two have helped us get a much better understanding about the core inputs that go into the pain experience. Pain is, in many ways, a simple equation that your nervous system puts together, and if you learn what that is you can take the fuel out of the pain experience. Learn more about that equation here.
