Somatic healing...like this guy...realising some female voices turn me off even if they are talking about similar stuff... too sharp maybe???  oh dear I am such a delicate flower at times.

think I shared links from him when I first joined form

revisiting worthwhile practices

breathing figured in so many of my activities... from breast stroke...and free style

I like his style of gentle allowing

@Appleblossom i will have a listen to this wehn i get time. I read his book when i was 15 and learned a lot about somatic trauma processing from it. It stuck with me as it made sense.

I've had to ensure to focus a lot of my breathing lately to bring down blood pressure when i notice it. Downside of being so dysregulated lately is a lot of difficulty now with not getting hypertensive when focused. I'm practicing noticing and taking time out to re-centre.

Yay for comedy mic night 😊. Glad to hear.

@outlander sorry to hear its been rough and not fun time. I also struggle with not finding things fun, so i relate to what you said. 

Let me know if there is support i can offer in that.

I also went to a trivia night a few weeks ago for the first time in years -- i liked it, but mixed feels also. It was "alot".

[outlander]

hey @AlwaysMyself
its tough when theres nothing we find really fun hey. i find life so mundane lately or so unmotivated to really do anything.
a couple of the older ladies at my work place invited me to the club which was nice. i tried to make friends with the younger people my age but i really have nothing in common so tend to steer away from them. the trivia was fun though just going for dinner and giving it ago

Good to hear from you @outlander 

Thinking of you . @outlander @Appleblossom @AlwaysMyself @Chasingsunsets 

[Appleblossom]

Yes I was similar @outlander being with older people as I had not much in common with the people my own age. Didn't know the movies or music, or shopping, and they didn't know the work. glad you had some fun at the trivia night, though.

Thanks @tyme 

Yes, please!

Oh and finally I am surrounded by all ages, some much younger and some a little older, lol, but only a little bit.
