95: Grief and missing someone you love over Christmas
I got really techy and recorded the Instagram live I did over at @the.selfishpodcast. Here it is x Just had a little chat about grief & missing someone you love over the holidays 🤍. A few thoughts from me:- it’s ok to set boundaries. This is strongly encouraged!It’s also ok to opt out of Christmas and other festive events. I like to have a pre planned “script/template” of what I will say if it all gets too much. - introduce your own traditions that include your loved one. This might be making a donation in their name or something else that is meaningful to you. No pressure to do this, or work this out straight away, in your own time and when it makes sense 🤍- incorporate them into the day/ your celebrations. For us this is an ornament on the tree, lighting a candle for our boy, and making a toast before we eat.It could also include playing their favourite song or watching a movie you enjoyed together. Drinking “their” drink, or saving a seat for them at the table.You may want to reach out to the host of the event and let them know how you want to honor your loved one ahead of time. - make space for your emotions: feel the feelings, cry the tears. Things are so busy this time of year it is easy to hurry yourself along and not have a moment to reflect. You could do this by going on a walk in nature or on the beach. For me it is star gazing. - prioritise your wellbeing and self care. What do YOU need to recharge, replenish, restore. If you have any other things that have helped you at this time of year please let us know in the comments. Be gentle to yourself this time of year and sending you much love xx ____ Connect with us @the.selfishpodcast @chloe_cocks @conscious.consulting.cc @ninelemonsfengshui @stephmccnchy 2026 The Woman Within retreat6 days, 5 nights from 15 - 20 July 2026 This is an invitation to journey to the woman within.

70: Yemi Penn: Getting out of fight & flight, the Window of Tolerance & Intergeneration Trauma (part two)
If you haven't already make sure you listen to part one of our conversation with Yemi Penn.Welcome to part two of our chat with Yemi Penn (PhD Researcher (Trauma Transformation), Transformation Thought Leader, TEDx Speaker, Author, Engineer, Entrepreneur, Mother & Producer!).In part two we go deeper into the window of tolerance, intergenerational trauma and the body keeping score. Some key points include:- the "window of tolerance", the range of emotions and experiences an individual can handle without feeling overwhelmed or disconnected. What does your window look like?- Being "stuck" outside of one's window of tolerance, in states of hyper or hypo-arousal (fight/flight or freeze/fawn), is common but often goes unaddressed. Yemi estimates that 80 - 95% of people may operate outside their window at times.- Intergenerational trauma is increasingly recognized, with trauma potentially passed down through 14+ generations. Reconnecting with cultural practices and wisdom can aid healing.- Grief and trauma responses are highly individualised, yet Western society often lacks the rituals and collective support to process them healthfully. Exploring practices from other cultures can provide guidance.- Using the voice (singing, humming) and body (movement, dance), stimulating the vagus nerve, can be powerful ways to self-regulate and return to one's window of tolerance when feeling dysregulated.LinksFollow Yemi on InstagramWebsite: https://yemipenn.com/Details of Yemi's Liberate programListen to Yemi's TED talkFollow Yemi on YouTubeListen to Yemi's podcast Decolonising Trauma____ Connect with us @the.selfishpodcast @chloe_cocks @conscious.consulting.cc @ninelemonsfengshui @stephmccnchy 2026 The Woman Within retreat6 days, 5 nights from 15 - 20 July 2026 This is an invitation to journey to the woman within.
