Physical Demand and High Stress
Entry #1: High Stress and Multiple Projects
I called Emily for a session because i’ve been in a time of high stress with multiple projects happening. I found myself feeling a constant, quiet buzz nervousness around all the things happening in my life. my throat had been swelling up in the evenings and was beginning to be sore about an hour before she did my session. i immediately felt better during the session and even stayed up later than i thought that night. she gave me a session which seemed to tie everything together so incredibly. what she said was inspiring and reassuring and allowed me to see, understand and experience what came up in the session through my body and not just via my head telling me things should be a certain way. it felt integrated and immediately tangible. my evening of sore throats didn’t return and i had much more energy and ease during the week than i expected. i’m really looking forward to the next session.

Entry #2: “This feels like more self-acceptance and love, and it feels like this is permeating into what I do as an artist as well.”
I had a good talk with a friend which seemed to address my insecurities and hurt feelings around an interaction we had earlier. It felt good to be able to say things and communicate rather than hold them in and feel hurt. I’m still working on the courage to really feel and follow my heart, but the signals seem to be getting stronger. Also, I got an email out of the blue from this guy I met two years ago, and it was really sweet. Maybe we’ll go on a date…it was nice to be ‘taken by surprise’ by that! I may have to ask him first, but why not? 
. I also actually ‘heard’ things that my sisters we saying to me about acknowledging what I can offer in a relationship and not selling myself short or looking at ‘what I am not’. This feels like more self-acceptance and love, and it feels like this is permeating into what I do as an artist as well. I would love to keep working on this!
