It's Mental Health Awareness month and today on the podcast I want to share two mindset and heartset practices you can do to help manage and improve your mental health. Our mental health is on a spectrum and what works for some people doesn't work for everyone. However, these two practices that I share are backed by science to demonstrate their power of helping us take control of our mind. When I start to feel my mental health feels out of whack, I come back to these practices.

In today's solo episode, we are talking about anger. How to label it, feel it, heal it and release it.
Anger is an emotion we are not taught how to "healthily" process, especially as women! So today on the podcast, we break it down. I share my personal experience of processing anger as well as some scientific research on the power of visualizing expressing anger.

Sierra practices at The Haven Center for Therapy in Maryland, an LGBTQIA+ allied, sex positive, kink-friendly practice, additionally helping couples navigate open relationships (ENM), polyamory, and non-traditional relationships.  Sierra believes that each client has their own unique set of challenges and responds in their own way to different interventions, therefore her orientation is deeply person centered with an emphasis on experiential therapy.

She enjoys working with couples and individuals. As a Couples and Family Therapist, her job is to help you decode your relationship, with yourself and one another. 

Today on the podcast, I discuss the gift of loving yourself without conditions. We are all imperfect beings, yet, we live life with all of these stories that we need to be perfect. Or beliefs: "I will be loveable when...". Accepting the gifts of our imperfections gives us freedom to be our authentic self. We get to live our lives from an empowered place because we love all aspects of ourselves.
