86: Self Regulation, Serotonin + New Moon in Cancer Blessings

 Regulating your mental state, especially in times of feeling triggered, can be quite  challenging. How do you bring yourself back, without continuing to feel reliant on others?

Or even worse, feeling like you're asking for help and not getting what you need.  

In the trauma informed wellness world, we speak about this concept of "self regulation", which is a way to calm your nervous system without being dependent on the outside world to help you in times of distress.

To literally, regulate yourself in a way that feels safe and nurturing to your emotions, so you can be there for yourself and break the cycle of self-abandonment. (Listen to my last episode on this if you haven't already!)

In this episode, I will uncover 4 powerful ways to self-regulate + naturally produce Serotonin, which is a chemical that carries messages between nerve cells in the brain and throughout your body.

Serotonin plays a key role in such body functions as mood, sleep, digestion, nausea, wound healing, bone health, and sexual desire - and has a longer lasting effect than Dopamine - which is a sense of temporary pleasure, or that quick fix!

Stay tuned towards the end of the episode where I do a live 3-card reading from Rebecca Campbell's oracle deck, The Healing Waters, for the New Moon in Cancer this week. 

Regardless of when you listen, the resonance of these cards will help you anytime you are ready for a FRESH START!
