Why I Stepped Away: Healing, Vertigo, and the Power of Stillness

Why I Stepped Away: Healing, Vertigo, and the Power of Stillness

Hey darling,

 

So I’ve been quiet on here, and that silence was me healing in the background.

And sometimes healing doesn’t always look good from the outside.

It’s healing that makes you cancel plans. And it’s also the kind that makes you rest, when your mind is yelling at you to— you’ve got to produce, and you have to do more.

And it’s also the kind that asks you to stop performing wellness and live in it, okay?

For me, that meant temporarily stepping away. Living with vertigo has been disorienting in every way. There are so many nights I couldn’t sleep. Days when walking didn’t feel steady. And I just felt so tired all the time.

So I released. I paused the full content, the blogging, the inbox, the videos— Even though I love them. Even though I love you.

And in the quiet, I returned to my sound bowls for their healing vibrations and peace, when I could stand up. And somehow, while my world was spinning, I found stillness in my bowls and the sound.

 

I’ve been currently playing on TikTok to feel calm, to let my nervous system exhale.

 

And what’s beautiful about that is that that slowness has grown something inside of me. A new rhythm, if you will, a new community, and a new softness I didn’t know I needed.

 

So this is my little update. My soft return. It is also a reminder that I have not forgotten about you. I’ve just been learning how to remember myself and do what I teach.

And I hope in your own way, you are doing the same.

Love and so much light. Peace.
