Ep. 33 Minisode: Before You Reply...

You get a text. It's probably fine. But somehow your whole body says, “I cannot deal with this right now…”.This minisode is for that moment: when your brain-on-grief meets your inbox and loses. In acute and active grief, our Executive bandwidth is heavily taxed. Attention, memory, decision-making, and language are all running on reduced capacity. So when a text comes in – even a well-meaning one – it can land like a demand we don't have the resources to meet.Before You Reply is a 3–4 minute nervous system support designed to help you receive and respond with slightly less defense. Not like nothing is happening for you… Just a little less braced.This episode includes a guided somatic practice and a set of short responses that protect both you and the relationship while you find your footing.You can download your free grief journal ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Send your Grief Confessional ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.And contribute to the show ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
