There's a lot on my plate right now and things are stacking so I've been seeking ways to mitigate the heavy load when letting it go isn't an option.
I address self-care and the challenges learning to love yourself can present if there's some conditioning to battle. Sarah Jarvis covers the Backdraft Effect in this article.
Then I go into a discussion of a new trend called Glimmers. They are the opposite of triggers. Here's a brief bullet point I covered to better define a glimmer.
I also share a well done (and free) resource on self-care through somatic movement. You can find the article here and it links to the YouTube videos that guide you through the practice.
And lastly, I am reinstating the season and episode numbers. I'm not sure when I stopped that or why, but they're back. This is season 4 and great things are on the way.

Giving credit where credit is due: Christine Miserandino revolutionized the chronic illness community by sharing her Spoon Theory with the world on her blog: https://butyoudontlooksick.com Because of her contribution, those suffering with chronic illness are often referred to as "Spoonies" and we often refer to energy stored and expended in units of spoons.
