Meadow Monday! Our ‘office’ may not be climate controlled, but the restoration team has the best views! We just have to share one of the stunning sunrise moments from last week.

Some basic rituals. HIGHLY recommend daily "shaking" (remember what dogs do?) for about 5 minutes OR whenever you need to reset the nervous system. I do it before important meetings or challenging ones! 🎯

"SHAKING OR TREMBLING, which comes from the limbic brain (the part of the brain that holds emotions), sends a signal that the danger has passed and that the fight-or-flight system can turn off. They are literally finishing the nervous system response to release the traumatic experience from the body."

Thanks to Anima Mundi Herbals for this beautiful illustration! + thanks for the 🎯 Cathy Malchiodi!

Excellent on a drizzly Monday!
