@KevinEspiritu I’ve also already had an ENT sort out my deviated septum, sinuses, tonsils and adenoids out all surgical procedures and these things did help but the ties I’ve got play a part in it too.
Gut health also is on the list and something simultaneously tackling. Good luck!
@KevinEspiritu Check out Dr Shereen Lim’s work and book - https://t.co/MTCb2o4Gvx she’s a leading airway dentist who specialises
In lip, tongue, and cheek ties.
I’m getting mine lasered in early September. I also have sleep apnea and a whole host of other issues I hope will be addressed.
@WestAustralia Beautiful. Space. Spur.
Beautiful is how it is, space is what you feel, Spur is a little like the characters you meet along the way (Man from Snowy River).
1.5 years ago, I lost a dear friend. It felt like death, but we're both still here. Just not in each other's life.
Today, I know that I saw more growth in and for him than he was able to compassionately witness for himself back then. Our world clashed because I was ready to hold us through a deeply challenging time, but he wasn't.
I knew because the promises he gave into our shared field were massive, but the reality was that the field stayed empty. None of these things happened.
Now, a past version of me would have been devastated and deeply hurt. (and there were moments of tears out of honest sadness and grief)
But somehow, I was never mad at him. I am still not mad at him. I still believe in him. I still wish him so so well. I still hope life is good and fulfilling.
It's because I led with purity, transparency, and honesty.
It's because I learned to distinguish between what's mine and what's theirs to hold.
It's because I learned that my heart grows when I meet sorrow with compassion, candor, and care.
It's because I know the emotional debt will be mine if there is something else I could have offered or cleared up before our paths diverged.
It's because I never shut the door out of anger but out of the divine understanding that this wasn't our time and that there was some growth that needed to happen for him.
Friends write love stories.
Romantic partners write love stories.
Siblings write love stories.
Co-founders write love stories.
Businesses write love stories.
We write love stories with ourselves.
Strangers write love stories.
The neuroscience of change and our bodies shows that we don't really know which one is which. It is only through the desperate effort of compartmentalization that we try to control which of the above hurts us more or less.
But if there is one thing I learned through being in practice and offering practice in my work, it's that the body consumes, digests, and makes sense of love in the same way.
We fall in love.
We see the future.
We get excited.
We grow expectations and visions.
We clash and grow (or not).
We rise together.
Or depart.
We grow, and our heart matures.
Love is in any relational field that you occupy.
Understanding this gave rise to a relational intelligence and harmony that I never thought was possible.
It's a messy process. It ain't perfect. But I am in love with how much containment I find with myself navigating ambiguous moments in relation with others (and myself).
Less drama, more peace.
@mikepantile Your daughters are going to rebel so hard. What happens if you aren’t around for their entire lives (and you won’t be). Will they crumble when you aren’t there every step of the way? You will shape them to be attracted to controlling men who aren’t their father…think on that.
@zoescaman Do whatever you can to maintain your calm. All she needs is you. You and her will get through it, it’s awful, but she will turn a corner.
Do what you can and follow your instincts and doc advice and lots of deep breaths AFTER you put Vicks under your nose / upper lip. Vomit = 🙅♀️
