Description

This is the second episode in a 2-part series. In Episode 1, we discussed five tools to help us navigate through the darkness. In this episode, we discuss five more tools to use before, during or after our darkest hours.

Using the tools of:

1. Acceptance. Not tolerance, but acceptance. Whatever is there, accept it.
2. Support. Knowing how to choose the right kind of support is very important because when you are going through darkness, you are raw and vulnerable. Harsh people, places and things can be very damaging.
3. Boundaries. Understanding and using boundaries are essential at any stage of life!
4. Professional Support. We don’t have to do this alone. It’s easy for some of us to shut everyone out, but the truth is, we need each other. Find a good coach, therapist, trauma specialist, or someone who can give you objective feedback with compassion, without compromise.
5. Mindfulness. Believe it or not, this tool is one powerful tool! Practicing mindfulness brings to the present and out of the future or past. Meditation, Breathwork, Visualizations, Grounding, Forest Bathing… there are so many ways to practice mindfulness.
