Nightmares leave a residue. When you open your eyes, remind yourself: I’m safe. I’m here. The dream is gone. Reach out toward the morning. #selfcare #sleep

Кошмары оставляют осадок. Открыв глаза, напомни себе: я в безопасности. Я здесь. Сон ушёл. Протяни руку к утру. #самопомощь #сон

Where are you? How are you breathing this morning? Sit down. Listen to the silence for just a few minutes. Attention to yourself, like sunbeams dancing on the wall. #selfcare #meditation

Где ты? Как ты дышишь с утра? Сядь. Послушай тишину, хоть пару минут. Внимание к себе, как солнечные зайчики. #самопомощь #медитация

Today’s simple: drink water. Water is beautiful — plain and pure. Don’t forget to hydrate. Dehydration gets the soap. Hydration or exile! #selfcare

Сегодня просто: пей воду. Вода прекрасна — обычная чистая вода. Не забывай пить. Обезвожживание — на мыло. Гидратация или изгнание! #самопомощь

Stress and pain hide in the belly. Don’t hold your stomach like a shield. Let it soften. Let it breathe. #mentalhealth

В животе прячется стресс и боль. Не держи живот, как щит. Пусть он будет мягкий и дышит. #ментальноездоровье

Позволь миру давить на тебя, словно ты семечко, а не ошибка. #самопомощь #ментальноездоровье

Let the world press down on you like you’re a seed, not a mistake. #selfcare #mentalhealth

What do we say to the gods of despair? Not today. Today I breathe. Today I live. #depression #trauma #mentalhealth

Что мы говорим богам отчаяния? Не сегодня. Сегодня я дышу. Сегодня я живу. #травма #ментальноездоровье #депрессия

It's impossible to exhale every bit of air. At any given moment there's a tiny bit of life in you. Smile at it. And breathe. #trauma #selfcare #mentalhealth

Невозможно выдохнуть весь воздух. В любой момент в тебе есть хотя бы чуточка жизни. Улыбнись ей. И дыши. #травма #ментальноездоровье #самопомощь

Having the worst months of my life in over a decade. And somehow I'm finding myself reading Gregory Ashe. Which really isn't helping, but I just can't stop reading. Sometimes the ocean screams at you, and you scream back until you lose your voice. But I pity the ocean. It's grieving, too.

My chair broke, so we got the same exact new chair. Bestest chair ever.

Using ChatGPT for self-reflection in-between seeing my psychiatrist, because it's basically journaling if your journal could reply. It doesn't allow me to self-deprecate, and yells at me for eating junk. :'( Technology this days, tsk. Used to be, you're the one yelling at your computer.

Human relationships are hard. I've no idea how people navigate their friendships without a psychotherapist being present on each side everyday.

I know some folks dislike the word "outcast" when applied to students. However, many of us prefer it actually. And it doesn't mean you've to identify with it. We work with everyone who comes. Everyone deserves a safe learning environment to express and grow. Teaching is a dialogue. We listen, too.

I'm pretty sure only 2 people read me here, haha.

Hypocrisy is one of the worst qualities you can find in a friend. Yes, I'm fine with you being a twat, just do it indiscriminately. If you can't tell something to a person's face, then don't say that where they don't hear. And don't be surprised if I call you out. Banter is fun. Hypocrisy is not.

Our new puppy is called Zola because after midnight she transforms into a pumpkin.

She is definitely a doe in a yorkie's skin.

How the fuck has 2025 trumped 2020—2024 things in just 2 months? Are we in a simulation?

The worst part about cutting down on coffee is that we bought cream and drank it on its own. I need my decaf. Send help.

As much as I'm into American pop culture, why is that all my feeds on every platform are entirely about American politics? In every freaking language.

Fuck having a migraine and getting a cold right when you're overworked and need to attend a court hearing. Uuuuuugh. I blame Kala.

What is this horrible shiny thing in the sky? Who turned it on? I need my stormclouds back, thank you very much.

@massagesloth.com Just wanted to say I love your writing and videos, and you've helped me come back to practicing massage properly after a couple of those pandemic years. <3

I want to focus on writing a few posts about presence and the idea of "carrying the atmosphere" for singers. A lot of students find these such difficult concepts, and so many beginners dissappear the moment they step on stage. It needs to be worked on. Apparently some people don't know how to be.
