It’s exhausting out there

Being an ethical, caring human in these times takes a real toll.

There are so many demands on your attention and your energy. Just in your personal life, there’s enough stress and strain and heartache to run you ragged.

Then there’s the rest of the world, filled with violence against people you love and communities you care for. There’s crisis after crisis, with the promise of more on the way. It’s way, way, way too much for one body to hold.

You’re tending to it all the best you can—fighting to stay afloat in your personal life and searching for ways to interrupt the harm that’s happening in the collective.

You’re making time for self care when you can. You’re leaning on your people and they’re leaning on you. You’re finding a way to make it through your days.

But it’s just. So. Exhausting.

Don’t look for answers—call for care

Burnout is a signal from your body, and it’s a wise one. It says something needs to shift. Your body won’t let you move forward until it does.

It’s easy to miss that message. A culture obsessed with productivity will always tell you to ignore your exhaustion, put your head down, and make it through the rough patch by force of will alone.

That’s like hitting the gas when a car is stuck in the mud. You spend more and more energy while getting more and more stuck.

And when you do turn to face the problem, it’s tempting to get caught in problem-solving mode: looking for answers and solutions that can vault you out of the stuck place ASAP.

The idea that you can strategize your way past burnout offers a sense of control—but it rarely works that way. Often, it’s a subtle way of continuing to exert yourself when your body is crying out for rest.

You don’t need to figure anything out right now. Problem-solving comes later. First, you need to call in good, deep, spacious care.

The kind of care that doesn’t just gear you up to get through another day (no shade intended—we love you, coffee) but that replenishes your whole system and restores your energy from the roots.

That’s the kind of care that allows you not just to survive your life, but to shape it towards the real true dreams and longings that are living underneath the stress and strain.

It’s time to tend that deeper place

What if you had a space where there was nothing you had to do, nothing you had to fix, nothing you had to figure out?

What if you could show up, name how you’re feeling, and then just relax and receive?

Paradoxically, it’s that space to slow down that allows you to move forward—and it’s often much quicker than trying to power through.

Energy work opens a channel for that support to reach you.

It can help you release what no longer serves and call in what does, so that you can bring more freedom and flow into your life.

Energy healing sessions can be especially helpful for moments when:

• You’re exhausted, depleted, and feel like you’re running on empty

• Old patterns keep showing up, despite your efforts to change them

• You’re struggling to shake the emotional impact of a challenging experience

• You need gentle support following a loss

• You’re looking for pathways towards hope without turning away from the pain of the world

• You’re ready to go deeper in your work to undo cultural conditioning and become your authentic, courageous self

How it feels

For most, the experience is gentle, relaxing, and/or energizing. You may notice warmth, tingling energy, or the urge to sleep. You’re not doing anything wrong if you don’t notice anything happening during the session.

Occasionally, big emotions surface as stuck energy is released. It can be powerfully restorative to let the emotion move through you—and you don’t have to go deeper than you’re ready to go.

It’s common for intuitive guidance to emerge over the course of the session, from your guides or mine. We’ll close with a discussion of anything that surfaced.

What comes next

Following the session, be on the lookout for opportunities to make new choices and set new patterns that align with your intentions. It’s been my experience that these opportunities often present themselves in synchronistic ways following a good session. You may find yourself feeling lighter, more clear, and more steady navigating the following days. Getting good rest, caring for your body, and practicing energetic hygiene can help the session integrate.

Be aware that energy work can bring you into contact with parts of your life that are calling for change—and change can be challenging. Sometimes, the release of stuck energy surfaces conflicts and untenable conditions that have been held in place by our old patterns. This can offer chances for rapid transformation. It can also be intense, and it requires good support to navigate until the waves settle. If your intention is to go deep and make big shifts, be sure to have that support in place beforehand.
