Cultivating Peace and Joy With Kelley Grimes

“A person who feels appreciated, will always do more than expected.” - Kelley Grimes

What we chat about:

Story of raising a daughter with epilepsy and how that led Kelley to take better care of herself
Getting Intentional about the food she offered her kids
How her daughter used food to heal herself
We make a choice everyday to nourish ourselves with food
Grounding ourselves before we walk out the door
Nurturing yourself is a gift you give everyone in your life
The more you nurture yourself, the more that you value yourself… And the more you value yourself, the more you commit to the nurturing practices
Incorporating a self care practice
Shifting from a mundane chore to something that is a practice
Cooking and sitting together
Rituals around the table
When you make a choice to feel great, you make different choices
Information instead of shame
Watching a young adult make great choices

The Arriving technique…

Feet firmly on ground.
Eyes Closed or soft.
A few deep body breaths.
Bring a spirit of non judgement.
Start to Notice
Check-in with your body.
Notice
Label your thoughts.
Breath into this moment, and say you have arrived.

What this does for us…

Reminds us breath is always accessible
Gets us in touch with our body
Allows us to be more aware of our thoughts
