One: On a Personal Note

Hard Stuff:

Vicarious or secondary trauma is the result of emotional exposure to others’ physical or emotional pain. I engage in therapeutic sessions with an attitude of privilege and honouring to witness and journey with clients through their personal distress and eventual healing.

However, it is a different story when witnessing the pain of my loved ones. I do more conscious breathing, especially in hospitals were I am exposed to needles, a past phobia of mine. For 3 days last month I watched our darling daughter come out of surgery. I was grateful to have the health and time to provide support, for her resolve to move past the pain, and her attitude of gratitude for the kind and informed care she received at Calgary’s Rockyview Hospital. We now have her tucked in our main bedroom in recovery mode.

How do you attend to your mental and physical well-being to avoid secondary trauma? ❤️🐞

Uplifting Stuff:

After posting the image below on Facebook, a number of people had a big smile, but others thought it a courageous act. Hmmm, I wondered. Is that about risking to act silly, or maybe not looking my usual feminine self? What is your reaction? ❤️🐞

Guess what? You get a sneak preview of Les’ and my 2023 greeting card with Misha, our pretty puss in the foreground.

Feel free to send me well wishes on December 30, when I become age 77. I’ve been told the angel number 77 indicates embodying wisdom, self-expression, and personal freedom. Look out world!

Please look at the holiday book offer below. OK?

Sending warm wishes to you and yours. See you in 2024! ❤️🐞
