Had a day at work. After a week to myself I now know that my 'work' relationship is dying. (Me being me, I will finish my contract) But look at the cards I drew. I trust the universe, I am abundant and grateful. I do not need to compromise myself anymore.

There’s a very specific kind of loneliness that can happen on a spiritual path, especially when you become the steady one. The rock for all the people around you. You start noticing that people come to you. They want your insight. Your calm. Your perspective. You’re the one who helps them process. You’re the one who sees clearly. You’re the one who can hold space for them. And one day you realize… you don’t really have someone to go to in the same way. This feels heavy. Not because you’re better than anyone else. Not because you’re “more evolved" or "special". But because your awareness has shifted. You’re noticing nuances in your growth that not everyone around you would ever notice or even have language for. You’re integrating experiences that don’t always translate into everyday conversation. It can feel like being the helper with no helper. But this isn’t a sign that you’re meant to be alone now that you are on a spiritual journey. It’s a sign you’re in transition. Growth often outpaces community for a while. It stretches you before it surrounds you. In this stage you are asked to strengthen your relationship with yourself, not to carry everything alone, but to trust that the right support will appear. You are not meant to be the guide for everyone and unseen by all. You’re just in the in-between. When you ask the universe for support, be open to what this could look like. And while you are in the in-between, this space is always here for you.❤️

Hi all. I don’t know how I mixed up time change so badly, but I did - I’m flying from Michigan back to Seattle this evening. I’m going to be in flight during the call. There is a chance I may be able to dial in, but I am not 100%. Hopefully see you all soon 🤞🏼

One of the things that I work through with this process is to gather a feeling for the cards rather than sit in the literal meaning whatever that means. So when I pull sexual energy, especially when that’s the furthest thing from my mind I ask, what does that mean? But then I think about it and I look at it from the aspect of lower chakra energy that has not been integrated up to the crown or like picking in the middle world card and not quite connecting. My goal is to really sit in the energy of the card and not feel that I’m wrong. And I know that is some of my stuff from childhood where I couldn’t be wrong. So my thought for the week is to understand there is no right or wrong in understanding the meanings of the cards.

I walk with one foot in the real world and one foot in the unseen. That means I believe energy is real, and I also believe you still have to take out the trash, answer emails, do the grocery shopping and deal with difficult people. Energetic hygiene isn’t about floating above life. It’s about staying clear enough to live it well. Let’s start here: If you have emotions, a nervous system, and a body that reacts to the world, you already work with energy. You don’t need special gifts or rituals. You need awareness, consistency, and common sense. What Energetic Hygiene Actually Is Energetic hygiene is the practice of not carrying what doesn’t belong to you. That’s it. It’s not about being “high vibe.” It’s not about protecting yourself from imaginary threats. It's not about bypassing hard emotions. It’s about noticing what you pick up, and choosing when to set it down. Just like physical hygiene, this is not a one-time fix. You don’t shower once and call it good. You clean yourself because you live in the world. Why Sensitive People Need It More (Not Because We’re Weak) Some people feel more. They notice tone shifts, emotional undercurrents, unspoken tension. This isn’t a flaw, it’s perception. But perception without boundaries turns into overload. Many empathic people were trained early to track others as a form of safety. That skill doesn’t disappear just because you’ve grown up. It just gets louder when you’re tired, stressed, going through changes or in unfamiliar spaces. Energetic hygiene helps your system understand: I can sense without absorbing. What Poor Energetic Hygiene Looks Like Most people don’t realize they’re overloaded until their body tells them. It can look like: - Feeling drained after conversations you didn’t “do” anything in - Irritability that doesn’t quite make sense - Difficulty sleeping after social interactions - Taking on responsibility for emotions that aren’t yours - Feeling foggy, heavy, or “off” for no clear reason. Here are some Simple, Real-World Energetic Hygiene Practices. No tools required.
