Beautiful explanation of how the past influences our now and why healing work can help us move forward.

Leave a 💙 if you agree. Personal healing makes relationships deeper. If they can’t see themselves well, they won’t be able to see you. From my convo with @jvn on @gettingbetterwithjvn

Frightening statistics!

Some numbers to sit with. According to global UN and WHO analyses, an estimated 15 million adolescent girls (ages 15–19) have experienced forced s*x. According to the World Health Organization, nearly 1 in 3 women globally have experienced physical or s*xual violence, most often by an intimate partner. According to UNICEF, around 640–650 million women and girls alive today were married before their 18th birthday. This isn’t rare. This is the baseline. This song by @victoriacanal has a hold on me.

Aries Stellium New moon conjunct Chiron This activation can feel like: – old wounds resurfacing right as you’re ready to move forward – heightened sensitivity around identity, confidence, or being fully seen – a surge of courage… followed by a quiet whisper of doubt – the realization of where you’ve abandoned yourself just to belong The cosmos is placing its finger on the exact origin point— not to keep you there, but to change how you meet it. To show you that you are no longer the version of you who had to shrink, silence, or survive it. Because this Aries New Moon conjunct Chiron is revealing a choice point: you can keep orbiting the memory of who you had to be… or step into the unknown as who you’re becoming. One path is familiar— shaped by old stories, old protections, old identities. The other is uncharted— led by truth, even when it trembles, guided by self-trust, even when it’s new. You don’t need to have it all resolved to choose it. You just have to decide that your past doesn’t get to author your next move. So if something in you feels activated, on edge, ready… this isn’t here to hold you back. It’s asking: will you keep reliving what was… or start moving like who you came here to be? The choice is Always yours. 🔥

Great article on the science of our tears and how crying from sadness/grief carry stress hormones out of our body!

Every emotion you feel leaves a physical trace in your body. What we see as a simple “cry” is actually a complex biological discharge of your internal stress levels. When you examine tears under a microscope, you can see that the “Topography of Tears” is not uniform. Your body actually changes the chemical recipe of your tears depending on the trigger. The Neural Reality: Reflex Tears (Onions): These look like chaotic, sharp, asymmetrical “explosions.” They are a defense response to protect the eye. Basal Tears (Daily): These have a clean, geometric order. They are designed for pure protection and hydration. Emotional Tears (Sadness/Grief): These look like aerial landscapes with branching valleys and deep cracks. These are the only tears that carry actual stress hormones out of your system. Why this matters: Crying isn’t just an emotional reaction—it’s a biological requirement. It lowers your cortisol levels and helps regulate your heart rhythm. Your body is literally “mapping” your stress and flushing it out to protect your neural hardware. 📌 Save this as a reminder that your body has a built-in reset for your emotions.

Have you ever caught yourself mid-reaction and thought… wait, who is actually running the show right now?

That white-hot defensiveness. The sudden urge to disappear. The irrational fear that you're about to be abandoned or humiliated. The part of you that shuts down, or explodes, or people-pleases their way out of discomfort.

That's not your adult self. That's a young part who learned to protect themselves the only way they knew how — and that kid is still doing their best….bless them.

Reparenting isn't about fixing that part of you. It's about recognizing it. Pausing long enough to say: I see you, little one. You are safe. I’ve got you. I'm an adult now.

It's one of the most humble, radical, and loving things we can do for ourselves — and for the people we're in relationship with.

This work isn't linear and it isn't always graceful. But every moment of awareness is a moment of freedom. Every time you consciously become aware of and hold the wounded child before they take the wheel, you're rewriting the story. And rewiring your nervous system.

You are both the one who needed more love then — and the one who gets to give it now.

What's one situation in your life right now where you can recognize your wounded child showing up? And what would it look like for your adult self to gently take the reins instead?

Hi, I'm Julie,
If you've been feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or like your body just can't fully relax... you're not alone.
So may of us live in a constant "go mode", where the nervous system stays on high alert. Over time, this can leave you feeling tense, exhausted, and out of balance.
At Solutions for Wellness, I offer gentle, drug-free services - including reflexology, energy healing, guided relaxation, mindfulness, and essential oils - designed to help your body shift out of stress and into a state of deep relaxation.
When the body relaxes, the nervous system can reset...allowing you to feel calmer, more grounded, and more like yourself again.
I'm so happy to now also be located within the DiversaFit Fitness Studio in addition to my Guilford location.
To welcome new clients, I'm offering your first 1-hour reflexology session for $65 (regularly $75)
If you've been feeling overwhelmed or simply need time to reset, I'm here to support you

Change is a natural part of life - but that doesn't mean it's always easy. Here's a reflection on navigating transitions with mindfulness and self-awareness.
