Hello! Thank you so much for listening to this episode of Are You Spiritual? If this is your first episode, HI! For my returning listeners, Hello again! In this stripped down episode, I wanted to talk about Mental Health - May is Mental Health Awareness Month - and give some tangible resources because sometimes even spiritual people need mental health help. And that's okay.
Also, on this Mother's Day, like all of them in the past, I really want to hold space for all the complicated emotions and expectations that come up around days like these. I encourage all of us to take a moment to offer ourselves some good "mothering," and use this as a time to celebrate Mother Earth in our own way. I guide a brief grounding meditation at the end.
If you do struggle with mental health issues, please know you are not alone. There is help available and most importantly, that things can - and often do - get better. Please get the help you need -
x, jasmine
One of the things that has been helping me move energy and lift my mood has been dancing this is my current jam, please share yours!:
