I'm really conscious right now about adding to the noise of everything that's going on around us. I don't want to tell you about all the things you could be getting done or should be ticking off your list because to be honest, I don't think that's very helpful at all. So in today's episode, I share a bit of a different perspective. Could this time be used as a re-set instead? In this episode I cover: + Why feeling stuck could be an invitation to re-assess and re-calibrate. + What I believe is being asked of us right now.  + How feeling intense heaviness, overwhelm and feeling stuck and unmotivated could be a signal you're holding onto things that you need to let go of before you can move forward.  This is just an intuitive perspective, take what you like and leave the rest XO LISTEN TO THE EPISODE: CONNECT WITH ME: Instagram: www.instagram.com/theessentialhome_collective Website: www.theessentialhomecollective.com Email: [email protected] Be sure to subscribe to the Heart of the Home Podcast so you don't miss an episode!

We are currently facing a very different version of what life normally looks like like for us right now. Things are uncertain and unclear and often that can bring a lot of fear and overwhelm. In this week's episode I walk you through 4 ways that I move through this overwhelm during times of uncertainty. As a highly sensitive soul, I have to protect myself, protect my energy and be really mindful and conscious about what I'm giving my attention too. I needed to share this episode with you today because I know many of you will need to hear it. In this episode I cover: + The physical response your body has when it experiences times of stress and anxiety and how being aware of this allows you to move through the overwhelm. + 4 ways to effectively manage the overwhelm you are currently feeling during these times.  + The importance of coming together as a collective and supporting each other during these times.  + An incredible opportunity to go deeper into this with support and guidance from a community who are just like you.
