You yelled, they cowered.
You exploded on your family yet again and now they're walking on eggshells.
And look, I know that in an attempt to help with your crazy mood swings, PMS, or general mom rage, you've read a ton of books, tried journaling, failed to bite your tongue, ate more snacks to avoid hanger, attempted breathwork, considered EFT tapping, and alllllll the things.
Girl, you and me both. That is, until I found this ONE solution.
When the world around you is spinning out of control, follow THIS step by step process and allow the Holy Spirit to take the lead.
You'll be able to better shut down those nervous symptom flight-or-fight reactions and unlock your parasympathetic nervous system relaxation.
No note-taking for this episode, friend. Just pop those earbuds in and get ready for peace and calm.
Love,
Kristen Your Holistic Hormone Balance and Weight Loss Dietitian
