keeping grounded when things get stormy

Fun fact: one of my oldest plant friends was a towering palm tree I met at a Holiday Inn near Disney World when I was 7 or 8. I watered her with a tiny spray bottle and talked to her everyday. She would sometimes ask me about my day, but mostly just enjoyed my company. 

Being from Florida, a palm tree friend may sound unsurprising. But this memory keeps me close to the many ways I have remained both rooted and adaptable amidst storms of all kinds. It also reminds me that I am never alone. And surely, I’ve needed these reminders — personally and collectively, this Spring’s been a doozy.

I wonder: what things or which people keep you grounded when things get stormy? Is it a tree in your neighborhood that offers you shade and silence? Is it a flower whose color sings to you? Is it a friend or lover you can call or text at a moment’s notice or who gives you the space you need? A hot herbal tisane that soothes you? A song you have on repeat while you shower? A bite of chocolate cake? A moment to scream?

I’m finding my footing and excited to share that my hypnosis & past life regression books for May and June are open. You can schedule time with me here.

I am also sharing a desire to guide more group experiences in the near future. I envision co-creating collaborative, hypnotic experiences with organizations, institutions, and groups of peers or friends who want to curate spaces for wonder, curiosity, revelation and change. Could that be you? You can schedule a group experience consult here.

With gratitude,
Kristen
