Today is March 25, 2020

Take a moment to think back to the change of this year. January 1, to be precise. Do you remember where you were and who was with you? Do you remember what your intentions were for the year 2020, if you created any?

Imagine you're at a 2020 New Year's party. Someone tells you, I bet in March of this very year we are going to go through a completely radical experience. Many of us will be confined at home because it won't be as safe as it used to be to go outside and mix among other humans. Some of us will ignore the very real threat, keep circulating around, and spread the threat exponentially. Some people will die from this condition that goes around...it will be tricky because many people will be asymptomatic for up to 2 weeks, even though they are carrying a serious illness that is new to us. And it will be elusive and an obstacle course to be able to get tested for this threat. Invest in the toilet paper industry NOW! Trust me, it is going to be like our most valuable commodity! 

Uhhhh...


But here we are! It's on! Thank you to those of you who are stepping up in your communities, families, and careers. Thank you to those of you who are praying and meditating every day for us all to get through this with as much grace as possible. Thank you to those of you who are grumpy and irritated and fretful...not all of us have the spaciousness to be honest about that. (And I haven't yet talked to one person who doesn't pass through that at some level. Coronalockeddown or not!)

Some themes I've been hearing in my community this week, including between my own ears:

~whatever was true for me before is now amped up...stuff I was scared about AND stuff I loved, the volume is turned up to 11 regularly in both directions


~thank goodness for my loved ones...overall they are looking a whole lot better to me (except when we're in close quarters it's sometimes TOO close and I might have to harm them before anything else does)

~I feel some self-judgment that I'm not **doing** more to help; I know so many people are suffering and I feel relatively alright through all this

~who is going to fix this? and how long will this all last? what will make it through this phase of so much transition, loss, and depth?


~how much food are you **really** buying? from where? no really, I mean really...
There are several of you out there who would like to spend some time with me next week.

I going to work with 5 of you through the end of March to have a Plan B Care Adjustment session.

We will carve out time in both of our schedules to sit with your numbers. We will review "what is", calmly and clearly. We will discuss in a grounded way what changes you can make in the short and/or long term as needed.

And for those of you who have been working really really hard...perhaps your Plan B Care Adjustment will also cover your self-care and bringing back in some balance.

I generally work with people over a longer period of time. The deepest transformations are usually possible that way. However, this is a special time, and it's part of how I can serve my community through this. 

Each session will be discounted to $150. One per person, through the end of March. Offer is available to new and returning clients.

I truly look forward to sitting with who this calls to! Let me share with you how delightful additional numbers clarity can be.

Stuff Helping Me Today:


The phrases "Just like me" and "Just like them".
When I notice fear arising within me, I think of all the people who are in fear of many kinds through this pandoozie. The fear arises, I bring in "just like them" and I feel more connected. I also feel more motivated, which helps me move out of fearful paralysis. When someone is gruff, impatient, extra controlling, I bring in the phrase "Just like me". I remember that I'm like that, too, sometimes, especially when I'm scared of losing things that I value, or not getting things I would like.


Have you seen The Big Sick? It is one of my favorite airplane movies. I'm guaranteed to genuinely laugh and cry. Yes please, I like both! I've followed Kumail Nanjiani's comedy and had a crush on him wayyyy before he got all ripped and shredded to do the movie star thing. So I was delighted today to hear his temporary podcast with his badass wife Emily V Gordon. She was a Marriage and Family Therapist before becoming a comedy writer. So this has comedy AND psychology, also a big yes please to both for me!

(And if you haven't yet seen The Big Sick, I understand if you want to postpone viewing a chronic illness/hospital'ly movie until after a rona anti-virus is discovered.)

The (G)reat (O)ut(D)oors. So glad that it is free and available to gaze at the sky. I saw this shot literally while just taking my recycling out to the little trash hut today.
