Every day, we're flooded with news of accidents, disasters, and conflicts. It’s natural to feel heavy or stressed when we consume so much difficult information.
Our body doesn't always know the difference between a threat in real life and a threat on a screen. Watching constant tragedy keeps our nervous system on high alert, even when we're safe at home.
While these big world events are deeply sad, most of them are simply not ours to solve. Real self-care means noticing what we let into our minds and bodies. When we limit our intake of stressful news, we protect our mental peace and stay grounded for the people right in front of us.
Holding onto constant secondhand stress only dysregulates our nervous system. Learning to step back, close the app, and focus on our immediate surroundings is a gentle act of self-respect.
What simple boundaries help you protect your peace when the news feels heavy?

Surprisingly, all group pictures were blurry so not posting them. I treasured meeting @renudist and giving free magnetic cupping demos to someone with tennis elbow (man) and previous car injury (woman)

True friendship should be giving, kind, and steady. Like looking through the eyes of a child—simple, open, and free of transactional demands.
Was recently "dropped" by a contact because I couldn’t reply to a DM immediately. This isn't the 1st time they’ve done this; they have a history of disconnecting when others don't meet their urgent timeline. But people have lives, and true connection respects boundaries.
Spent the last few days navigating some physical inflammation—a reminder to slow down and listen to my body.
Am feeling much better now, and honestly, I feel even lighter. When someone removes themselves from your sphere because you prioritize your well-being over their instant gratification, it is not a loss. It is a gift of negative space.
Letting people go easily and without resentment is an act of deep self-respect. You protect your energy for the connections that truly add value.
Here is a song for present and future friends:

Solitude is never wasted time. Choosing to be alone is a powerful way to show yourself self-respect.
I would much rather spend my day in quiet comfort. I like doing simple chores around the house or relaxing with my foster cat. Animals are easy to be around. They do not send confusing messages or make life complicated.
When it comes to people, I want to spend my time with friends who truly want to be there. True friendship should feel easy and smooth. It should never feel like a heavy duty or a hard chore.
If a relationship takes too much work just to meet up for a coffee, it is okay to step back. You do not have to force things to work.
Choosing your own company instead of confusing plans is how you protect your peace. It is how you bring energy back to your body.
Listen to what your body needs. Being alone is how we rest, heal, and find ourselves again.

Your feed is a digital container. It should feel as refreshing as a walk through the forest. If you’re scrolling past constant pitches, you have permission to curate.
I’ve spent the last year letting go of what doesn't serve my nervous system—from old roles to connections that feel like friction rather than flow.
When you stop engaging with energy-draining content, you create negative space. That space is where you invite in ideas that align with your values.
We should add to each other, providing peace rather than just promotions. When a connection is purely transactional, the cost is high.
You lose bandwidth and the potential for real, two-way conversation.
Keeping these broadcast connections clutters your feed and pulls you from Glide back into Grip.
I just disconnected from a contact who used every DM to pitch me. If you have someone like this, consider this your sign to free yourself. Hitting unfollow isn't personal—it is self-respect.

Been testing ionic foot baths for nervous system regulation—not for "detoxing," but for intentional rest.
With a warm salt water circuit and electrode, we encourage systemic relaxation and lymph movement. It’s a simple way to shift from tension to ease.
True self-respect is choosing tools that help us release the day's weight. How are you building regulation into your system this week?Feeling light and rested after this treatment.

2of2: In TCM, the eyes open to the Liver system. When we hold heavy stress, unexpressed frustration, or skip sleep, internal heat rises and the eye's tiny blood vessels act like a safety valve.
Even if resting blood pressure reads normal, a blowout means the system is under strain.
A friend had this exact issue 2 months ago and her eye completely sorted itself out in a week.
If my dad had blurry vision or pain, I would have driven him to the ER immediately. But without life-or-limb symptoms, emergency rooms offer limited help.
During COVID-19, I spent 15 grueling hours in the ER with acute pancreatitis, waiting while they figured out it was asymptomatic type 2 diabetes. In remission since then, I healed my pancreas naturally and am off insulin!
Unless it is an absolute emergency, a chaotic waiting room just adds stress. Use remote clinic checks for safety, then look at where your system is asking you to slow down and set boundaries.

I’m a Ceraunophile, but the foster kitten is definitely not. Vancouver had eight thunderclaps on Tuesday night. It was exhilarating for me, but it sent her straight under the bed. When another clap happened this morning, she was scared all over again.
I spent the morning soothing her and showing her she was safe. It’s a good reminder that fear usually comes from things we don't understand. To her, the thunder is a scary threat. To me, it’s just a "sonic boom" caused by air expanding.
Understanding the "why" behind the noise changed my whole experience. I’m happy to say she is finally out from under the bed today. It’s a small win for her nervous system.
When we understand how our own systems work, we don't have to hide from the "thunder" in our lives. We can learn to regulate and stay grounded instead.

I’m a Ceraunophile. That’s someone who finds deep comfort and excitement in thunder. Today in Metro Vancouver, I’ve already counted 8 claps of thunder! Each one feels like a reset for my nervous system.
There’s a cool bit of science behind this "sonic boom."
Thunder is actually the sound of air expanding. When lightning strikes, it heats the air to 30,000°C—that's 5 times hotter than the sun. This instant heat makes the air explode outward faster than the speed of sound.
Lightning and thunder are a perfect pair and happen at the exact same time. We only see the flash 1st because light travels much faster than sound. By the time the boom reaches my ears, the light has already cleared the path.
In my system work, I focus on self-respect and regulation. Sometimes we need a sonic boom in our own lives to clear the air. It helps us make space for a new frequency.
Are you a Ceraunophile too?

I’m a Ceraunophile. That’s someone who finds deep comfort and excitement in thunder. Today in Metro Vancouver, I’ve already counted 8 claps of thunder! Each one feels like a reset for my nervous system.
There’s a cool bit of science behind this "sonic boom."
Thunder is actually the sound of air expanding. When lightning strikes, it heats the air to 30,000°C—that's 5 times hotter than the sun. This instant heat makes the air explode outward faster than the speed of sound.
Lightning and thunder are a perfect pair and happen at the exact same time. We only see the flash 1st because light travels much faster than sound. By the time the boom reaches my ears, the light has already cleared the path.
In my system work, I focus on self-respect and regulation. Sometimes we need a sonic boom in our own lives to clear the air. It helps us make space for a new frequency.
Are you a Ceraunophile too?

Today, I’m inspired by Dr. George Goodheart Jr., the founder of Applied Kinesiology. In 1964, he shifted healthcare by focusing on muscle testing to find hidden blockages. He proved that our bodies already know how to heal—we just need to remove the "static."

https://youtu.be/kr89lXmXmHsIf you're into Lifestyle Medicine or Spatial Medicine, let's connect. Here are 3 tips to get you started:
1. Practice intentional movement over metrics. I swim and play tennis for fun, not just to hit 10k steps or win a match.
2. Listen to your body’s unique frequency. Pay attention to pain or discomfort as a signal to change, remove, or improve something in your day-to-day.
3. Prioritize your physical foundation. Focus on diaphragmatic breathing, fascia, nutrition, and mindset.#FasciaFitness #WellnessWithCrissy #AppliedKinesiology #LifestyleMedicine
