Making yourself smaller, physically or otherwise, won't make that "I'm too much" feeling go away-- because that feeling isn't actually about the space you take up. It's about old programming. Old tapes.
"Do you treat this moment as if it were an obstacle to be overcome? Do you feel you have a future moment to get to that is more important?" - Eckhart Tolle
A Truth About Healing: You are more resilient, self aware, and emotionally intelligent than you give yourself credit for.
A Truth About Healing: Your parents had unresolved trauma and almost no information on how to create healthy homes. In some ways, they were children in adult bodies stumbling through life.
My son just asked me: Why do hotdogs go to the gym? Me: 🤷♀️ Him: To get better buns! 🤣
Human brains have almost 100 billion neurons and those don't work in isolation. They work in networks...which consist of over 100 trillion connections. Ironically, numbers unfathomable to our brain Yet! with all this power, we still don't even know about the basic brain…

Happy 🌎 Day 2024! I looked forward to Earth Day so much as a child. We would have special projects and time in the library to research and then present them outside on Earth Day. Getting to spend more time in the library and outdoors was 👌!
I’m trying out a new exercise class in the morning and need to be asleep to get up early, but I’m so excited/anxious I can’t sleep… 🫠
@newtonlaw This is so beautiful and reminds me of @GlennonDoyle and these words… 👇
Self-regulation is without question the secret superpower that preschool teachers have in their back pocket. It’s a beautiful truth, because it’s a skill we all need, and it’s what we should’ve learned in preschool ourselves.
This insight really hit me this morning—🤯
“I wrote a thousand songs that you find uncool. I built a legacy which you can't undo. But when I count the scars, there's a moment of truth. That there wouldn't be this, if there hadn't been you.” 🤌 @taylorswift13
@BrendanDonahu17 @Theholisticpsyc When we understand what happened and what shaped us we can process the feelings and unmet needs, feel compassion for ourselves, and then free ourselves from repeating those same patterns over and over. It’s like the blind fold has come off and now we can see 👀
To re-program the subconscious mind you need a daily system. A clearly defined set of goals, written on paper, that you will read every day and visualize yourself having achieved.
No arms, no cookies. We have to reach for what we want. Even when it burns (that's how you know you're stretching).

Selecting and curating pictures and videos trying to add context, source and explanation to science, tech, art and weather topicsYou're allowed to have feelings about & reactions to sh*t that happened & sh*t that's still happening. Don't let anyone tell you you're not. You're also allowed to do what you can do to feel & function better now-- even if the sh*t storm's not over yet. You don't have to wait.
You are needed in the Present. To make focused, solid decisions. To come up with new ideas. To show up in ways that matter professionally and personally. You are not useful in the past - stop focusing there.
Making yourself smaller, physically or otherwise, won't make that "I'm too much" feeling go away-- because that feeling isn't actually about the space you take up. It's about old programming. Old tapes.
"Resilient" is not the same as "unaffected" or "fine." "Resilience" doesn't even actually explain anything. It describes the fact that we survived. But every "resilient" trauma survivor still needs & deserves support & care & compassion & now. I'm talking about you.
Most people think anxiety can be controlled through sheer willpower. Wrong. I've spent 1,000's of hours in clinical training as a therapist. Here’s the #1 best method for navigating anxiety (without having to pay for therapy):
I was diagnosed with "generalized anxiety disorder" when I was 21. I did not have an anxiety disorder. I had lifestyle problems and a limited relationship to my body (these go hand in hand).
"Stretching and Walking" In your body = out of your mind. The mind is a wild horse, the body tames it. 10 minute stretch, feel into your muscles and tendons. 10 minute walk, focus on your big toe pushing off the ground.
"Muscle Relaxation" Lay down flat on your bed, put your focus on your right arm. Relax it deeper into the softness of your bed. Now, slowly move into different parts of your body; this takes practice.
"Shaking" Anxiety is energy stuck in your body, you must get it out. Shake your: - Hands - Legs - Chest - Shoulders Do this for five minutes, going back and forth between each.
"Mindfulness" 1) Sit on a chair, feet on the ground 2) Wiggle toes, feel into your feet Feel the physical sensation of your feet. Identify 3 objects, list 3 attributes of each Ex. “The lamp is green, metallic, and antique.”
"Breath" Intentional slow breaths calm the body. 4-7-8 method (inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, exhale for 8 seconds). Breath and repeat “in this moment I am safe."
Your body holds the key to solving anxiety because... The bodies experience of anxiety comes before any mental or emotional component. The problem is that most people are disconnected from their body.
The thought “this person doesn’t actually care about me, they’re just here because of (whatever thing they want)” might be one of the hardest thoughts for a trauma survivor and/or addict to shake— and maybe the most destructive to our recovery.
@ericasmyname I think it depends on the context. Beginners need to focus on shipping. Professionals need to polish their craft. The former needs to learn what works so they can edit. They latter already knows what works and it's tweaking to get closer to it.
@ericasmyname Editing is essential—it's when you understand how your writing comes across.
@ericasmyname You nailed it. Those who aren't yet publishing online often use as "editing" as code for "I want this to be perfect" and that becomes an excuse for never publishing. Fortunately almost every platform with a "publish" button also has an "edit" button.
@ericasmyname Good point, Erica. And most beginning writers are publishing online where they can usually edit after the fact. Those of us who are writing for print need to edit at a high level before submitting our work. I also believe that well-edited work reflects my professionalism.
@xjoshwalker Yeah...not on social! That's why people get so overwhelmed with blanket statements. Cuz it's like, "you're not talking to me stop acting like you're right!" Haha. I dunno how to solve that.
@ericasmyname My question: Is there space for a person who matches the right advice to the right audience? Folks may be finding Ship30 or Erica at the wrong times and feeling overwhelmed that there are 18 contradictory pieces of advice.
