Our 4 part series on How To Heal with Anxiety starts here, with Love. With some help from conventional sources, the metaphysical practitioner on our team, V.S., and my own experiences with anxiety and healing, I’m setting the stage for us to look at basic anxiety “disorders” and to move toward healing measures. You will see yourself, and/or your loved ones and the world at large in this list of anxieties types. NAMING struggles is an important part of healing, and… I’m encouraging us to NOT OVER-IDENTIFY WITH LABELS. Especially when we’re talking about anxiety disorders. I prefer to say, “imbalances” over “disorders.” And “natural” over “normal”––because we could argue over what’s normal in a world that's flailing and waking up. But the heart and the nervous system know what’s natural. This episode (number 102) is thorough. We’re covering a lot of ground and then the following 3 episodes will get lighter (kind of.) The foundation looks like: Types of anxiety disorders, as outlined by the National Institute of Mental Health. Physical, psychological AND metaphysical explanations of anxiety imbalances The relationship between your nervous system and anxiety healing The distinction between anxiety and panic. They are quiet different. Definitions of our energy bodies (Etheric Body, Astral Body, Mental Body.) 24 causes of anxiety that you’ll probably relate to. 6 ways to dissolve anxiety that are physical, simple and immediate. What IS the vagus nerve and why is loving on it so important to our wellness? Then we open the conversation to spiritual resilience and more meta-physical ways to heal with anxiety SAVE THE DATE: This is all leading up to Thursday, April 4, 2024, at 12 PT | 3pm ET, for a live class, HOW TO HEAL FOR REAL. Mark it in your cal to attend live if you can. Anxiety is stirring in our collective and individual psyches. We’re still recovering from the global health bootcamp that started four years ago, and with raging wars and buckling economies… we might be… frayed. Naturally. Anxiety and all of it’s presentations aren’t a permanent condition. It’s our unhealed content asking for attention.  Anxiety is Resilience + Compassion training. Come step it up with me.

What part of you is saying your affirmations? Your fearful part, or your faithful self? Who's doing the affirming? I’ve been going off about the down-side of self help affirmations for yuh-earrs. But complaining is a kind of affirmation, inn’t? So… I’m shifting into solutions. But in order to get to that higher consciousness, we’ve got to unpack the unconscious stuff. There’s a sequencing for creating healthier affirmations. I unpack each of these tenets/directives: WE CREATE MORE OF WHAT WE THINK WE ARE  RUNNING FROM THE PAIN CREATES MORE PAIN  IDENTIFY AS LOVE TO OPEN POSSIBILITIES CHOOSE HOW TO SEE These theories require explanations. So be sure to tune in for the 30’ish minutes of this episode.

Welcome to Episode 100 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE! Thanks for rollin’ deep with me times 100! I don’t take a single listen, click, share, or comment for granted.  So… Is your inner child choosing your relationships? Short answer: Ya. Totally. Consciously or unconsciously. It’s not bleak, babe, it’s a good thing. Because your Inner Child is choosing the relationships that lead you to your power.  We know a lot of our wounds from childhood stay with us. Jump cut to being grownups and those wounds may still be in the basement of our psyches. Until we choose to get proactive and have a clearing session. In Eps 100 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE we’re going to unpack: Why our Inner Child––our unhealed self––is going about choosing our relationships. (Don’t get too bummed out, it’s how we heal.) Why we connect/choose partners and people who match the energy of our wounds Why every trigger is an opportunity to show up better with our beloveds (and even the barista) 7 suggestions on how to REFRAME THE TRIGGERS An extra special shout out to the unconditional girlfriend love that ALL of our relationship could benefit from Your triggers are power levers. I promise, promise. This reframe will change your LIFE. Happy Valentine’s Day, my friends! As always, we’re going deep… but keeping it light. Note: This episode contains adult language.

Hello Loves,  I know there’s a lot of disappointment in spiritual teachers and public figures who are silent during these times. I hear it daily in my DMs. “Thank you for speaking up, I’m so disappointed in other people in this space.” I understand. I relate. And… it makes me wince. I’m grateful for the resonance but I’m not cheering on the criticism of others.  We don’t need to find additional reasons to battle each other about raging world battles. That's just division on top of division.  A house divided falls. This is exactly what corrupt puppeteers are trying to orchestrate.  So today I’m offering a stained glass window of different ways to look at silence and activism, fear and bravery. Please take what you want and leave the rest.  Let me be clear: I am not defending silence nor am I demanding for people to speak up.  Eps 99 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE explores why people sometimes choose silence in fractious situations. And I have some heart centered strategies on how the more “vocal” folks can cope with disappointment when silence bites––especially from the people we’ve admired. We have to make space for all of our ways of being through these insane, dark times.  Please tune in. I think this could be helpful for all kinds of situations and polarizations.  With you all the way, my friends. LINK LOVE: The Heart Centered Membership: 2 live classes/month + conscious community.

You know… I’ve felt like an outsider most of my life. Lil’ bit on the outside. And of course I’ve had my share of hard No’s and reeejection. And… but… each rebuff and snub is taking us closer to our shadow territory, to the beautiful, unhealed stuff that’s waiting to be healed. I recently taught a class on rejection in our Heart Centered Membership and it was a tender one. We’ve strung the diamonds for you: In Eps 98 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE I’m teaching on: The meta-function of rejection. Every spurn, every rebuff points to our inability to accept all parts of ourselves Exactly why rejection is an advance class in self-acceptance How we stand in our power to heal from rejection, without bypassing or bravado How to choose responsiveness and consciousness over numbing out and running away. This is the work. This is how we transform our repetitive pain into deep esteem. Mentioned in this episode: The Heart Centered Membership. A place you can come up for air. We meet LIVE 2xs/month.

Hello Loves,  Why do we get sick? Like really? My man and I decided to spend a month in Nicaragua to keep my lungs in prime conditions. Paradise on the cheap plus in-person time with my Team D wing woman Dana, who’s built a beautiful life there with her family. Perfection! Within 48 hours of arriving… I got sicker than I’ve been in years. Have I not been meditating enough? Ingesting enough frankincense? Is this my way of burning karma? Am I a New Age loser?  I could say it was the air freshener and bacteria and smoke and dust and burning rubber fumes and all the allergens that triggered my already sensitive respiratory system. Or I could say: It was my deep grief that I've been processing much of this lifetime, carried over from lifetimes, about the illusion we are separate, that I am alone in my sanity and longing for us all to get back to Love. It's not allergies baby, It's a cosmic home sickness Eps 97 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, is personal and universal: The “outer” reasons for sickness vs the innerward reason. Hint: the outer circumstance trigger the inner imbalance. The healing pivot that makes all the difference—from berating ourselves to compassion  The practice I use to saturate pain points with healing frequencies.  How karma is the opportunity for us to realize our true capacities as healers  The cure is in the sickness––which is always a call to Compassion.  And hey… catharsis ain’t a bad way to start the new year.  Mentioned in this episode: Get my (free) SACRED WEEKENDS email 2 Fridays/month SIGN UP HERE. 222k readers are diggin’ it!

Today is a good one. I’ve been waiting to deliver this for a while and because I think there’s a missing piece in the current cultural conversation around the nervous system which is… the connection between our dysregulation and the quality of our relationships.  A nervous system that’s nourished, regulated and healthy can roll with ALL KINDS OF EXPERIENCES. We can be flexible, spacious, and tolerant. Way less… triggerable and much more… Loving. When we’re overly stressed, under-resourced, and dysregulated (anyone?) relational symptoms ––in addition to physical symptoms, will start to show up for us. If you’re agitated and unpleasable… if you want to hard bail on commitments… if you’re emotionally shut down…  if you can’t even name what you’re feeling… then… it’s all kinds of messy and unfulfilling. In Episode 95 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE, I’m walking us through the 8 signs of dysregulation in relationships, PLUS! 8 signs we’re relating from inner balance: How to know when you’re off base. In wild times like these, we’re normalizing abnormal conditions.  How getting regulated helps us stop taking everything personally.  How imbalance actually brings us more into balance. All reactivity is an opportunity to see what’s playing out under our hood. The indicators that we are relating from inner balance, from the heart center… and why Love is the most powerful, immediate regulator of the nervous system.  We heal through relationships. Repeat: all relationships are vehicles for healing.  When we see how our nervous system influences our interactions––family, partners, friends, cultures—then we will take a more urgent and spiritual approach to taking care of ourselves. And THEN we can move from friction to freedom. Especially with the holidays at hand… please listen in.  We show up, we hold space. We hold hands. And we keep going.  Mentioned in this episode: The teachings in this session are from THE NOURISH SYSTEM program. Nourish system regulation is so doable. I’ve created a simple, flexible methodology and structure to move you towards small acts of healing every day.  HEART CENTERED MEMBERSHIP.

I’d bet that you’ve never been asked this question before: What’s your relationship to what nourishes you?  Because even though we KNOW what’s good for us, we don’t always go there.  Here’s the thing: everything is energy. And we’re always exchanging energy. So we’re actually relating to different healing ideas and modalities.  And! the quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives (Kind of a big deal). So this podcast session is a micro workshop on your relationship to the healing areas of your life. A little philosophy, a little esoterica, a lot of practicality. We’re looking at stillness, body, silence, quality of sleep and more––connecting to ALL the healing sources. In Episode #94 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE we explore: How the body’s function is to transmit Love + Q’s to help you become a stronger conduit.  Why, in our productivity obsessed societies, stillness is actually the power move.  Want to know my theory on meditation? An inquiry for all levels of mediators and the meditation-resistant. Prayer as one of the most intimate forms of conversations––and how analyzing your relationship to prayer can shift you into deeper self love. What happens when we intentionally choose silence. How to show up to nature to recharge (hint: first with gratitude and then to make our healing requests.)  If this is nourishing in any way, please leave a review, subscribe, maybe pass it on to a friend who needs some healing this week.

You will gain more insight about your journey, and this may cause  you to change course. So perhaps that is what some of us fear in the pause, that they will finally realize that another way is calling them." Octavia Raheem “If part of your legacy were to change the relationship to rest and self-care for your family lineage, how would you begin?”  Tracee Stanley  (Tracee is joining me for a Heart Centered Business Masterclass!

Let’s talk about all the shades of isolation. Chosen aloneness. Solitude. Go it on your own. Hangin’ out the ‘do not disturb’ sign. Pressin’ the HARD PAUSE BUTTON. Isolation, like everything else in life, has shadows and light. I think this conversation is important because, unexamined, it can turn into nervous system dysregulation. Darkness, disassociation, sadness.  So let’s hold it up into the light. In Episode #93 of WITH LOVE, DANIELLE I’m sharing: 10 reasons we isolate––why we pull back from people, places and experiences. What fear-driven isolation does to us, and what heart centered, healthy isolating looks like. One way that I’ve created conditions of healing for myself, and tips to seek out safe spaces for community (even if you’re reluctant… like I used to be) Why we need to acknowledge the fatigue that comes from playing by someone else’s rules (hint: it frees up our life force) How showing up imperfectly (please let go of perfectionism) is part of the of the isolation solution Retreating is sometimes the absolute necessity––wise. And other times, it’s a slope to sadsville. I just want you to know that you can pour light on the situation, no matter what it is.  Mentioned in this episode: THE NOURISH SYSTEM, an 8-week self-study program to help you create conditions of healing for yourself.
