Hi Bodies! As we head into the weekend, may we be reminded of the life lessons all around us! In today’s episode we encounter a beautiful memory from a child on a playground. That reminds us to call out the facts, and that we having a choice (many actually) in how we respond next. Matching our words with a calming logic, a focused precision and a truth telling care instead of an overwhelming chaos, blaming anxious spinny doom. It is here, in stating out loud when things are difficult (no matter what they are) we can have more access to notice how our needs can be met. To this little child and their affirming care - May we too take life notes and lessons from the tiny voices around us! To the wisdom in all of us, unbound by age 🧡🛝🐕✨ - Taryn, @slow.full.organizing

Today’s episode explores the joy of humour, play and spaciousness for reframing our working memory and the delights of our vivid, visual memories! Listen for one habit I repeat daily to myself often for a laugh and as strategic act of care! 😂👏🏻✨And for another technique that uses physical objects as anchors for our visual memory to shine! Head on over to @slow.full.organizing to join in on the conversation! With love and a lot of laughter, your neuro-divergent and neuro-essential pal! Taryn xo

Our physical environments have a huge impact on our emotional and mental states of attunement. Today’s episode highlights a @slow.full.organizing practice that helps reduce emotional and physical clutter, and let’s you break down care of your self one step at a time! With a simple question, and a tubberware bin see how thing practice too can transform your life! Remember, you are Neuro-Essential! And all of your processing is valid! From one small step, to another — Yours in caring for our collective capacity, Taryn 🌻💕🌍

When making decisions feel hard to make, and the difference between booking an 11 or 11:30 meeting is daunting and overwhelmingly stressful to pick between, and the feels are real! The best antidote I’ve discovered is to not make one (in that moment) — To say you need more time to decide. To write an email, but not send it - keeping it in your draft inbox until a clarity arrives. To open the tab but not reach out. To keep a note about an upcoming appointment, but without the details of a day or time. Let it linger. Let decisions with time, schedules and appointments sit a while longer. The pressure cooker vibe of deciding (and getting it right) doesn’t need to be something we adhere to. We can ask for more room in our decision making processes. With our selves, with our own schedules and with our communities. Together we can practice rushing less, and nourishing ourselves more. What can you not* decide on today? I trust in the time it takes to slow down, and to make a genuine decision grounded in care and clarity. May we practice moving more spaciously together, xo Communicate you need more time to decided and give yourself the time you require to slow-full it down ⏰❤️🎉✨

Feeling overwhelmed by too many decisions or not able to make a single one? Feeling directionless with endless openings and no pathway is hard to navigate! I’m learning this too in times of transition, deadlines and newness in life at every corner right now. Everything is a seed. And how tall or big something will grow, is undetermined. Leaning in to directionless requires us to take a tiny step towards direct action. Direct action is a step, not an outcome or the answer - but a way forward. And sometimes, when the world feels really big and up-close - all we need is a step that empowers us in knowing we are in control, that we are safe and that we can lean in when all we want to do is avoid and lean out. And it usually is towards the direct thing we are panicking, worrying or avoiding about. To practicing tough conversations, daily routines, and gentle self compassion. We are all trying to live in a time we have never gone through before. As we take time for our hearts to adjust and we set boundaries with our minds there is space to set a timer and try again. Yours in recovery from avoiding life when it gets hard, xo T

We deserve to be celebrate, recognized and supported in our actions of living life on the daily! This week it is a PURE FUCKING JOY to celebrate the GOOD JOB, YOU ARE DOING! Plug in your headphones, turn up the volume and let these delightful Affirmations of ReParenting coming on in, come your way! Cause you, my darling friend ARE DOING SUCH A GOOD JOB!! ✨💖🤩😍🎉 ————— Notes from a Creative 📝📬

As a Neuro-Divergent and Disability creative with a platform on Spotify, I too have read through Spotify’s Platform Rules in response to misinformation, and will continue to make informed decisions from my queer, crip, trans embodied to respond with alignment the values of taking time to understand the continents of the containers we share CommUnity in!

Using Anchor, to record my podcasts as a low tech, high-embodied walking/stimming/moving audio conversation to capture the real intimate time and connections my MindBody needs to process - I understand the access technology plays in holding space for Bodies of Care.

Anchor is by far the most accessible medium to share my heart through in Podcast and as a result, gets distributed through Spotify.

I take all these moving parts into consideration as an Artist;

my Body,

my CommUnity,

and my responsibility to read, review and make informed slow-full decisions.

May dismissal, not be our first response.

But pause.

Yours in knowing, YOU TOO ARE DOING A REALLY GOOD JOB! 🎉📝🥰

Your Pal,

Taryn @slow.full.organizing

Remembering Medications ✨🎒🙋🏻‍♀️💊

Let’s do this! #Together 👻🔮

Auditorial Reminders:

*shake the bottle 🎶🕺🏻

*make it make a sound before taking!

You might not remember the action, but you will more likely remember the sound!

Especially is auditorial stims are something you gravitate towards! Think sound cues to support action, recall and memory!

VISUAL CUES + CLUES:

Place it by something you do everyday and the time of day you want to take it!

- B-12, by my morning notepad + pens

- D liquid, by my at home Vaseline capstick in the bathroom cause my lips always get dry - so when I go to do that, I think “Did I take my Vitamin D today?”

I use my other sensory cues, such as dry lips that are more noticeable to help me remember! 🌼🥳

Have a living relationship with your supplements / medications! Leave them out, by things you also can’t live without 💛😉🙌🏻 aka paper, pen, and chapstick lol

VISUAL CLUES:

- need to take? Front Label faces you.

- Taken? Turn label away.

Counter Placements

- Left side, need to take

- Middle, second dose (if required)

- Right side, all done!

DECORATE WITH IMAGES:

COLLAGE AND PAPER BABY! 😉🥳😍

- Decorate your bottles with the purpose they provide you and your body!

- Can’t remember why you take Vitamin C, paste, tape, ModgePodge the outside with pictures and cuts of a splash of sunshine, a beach umbrella and those feel good vibes!

Magnesium? How about photos of rest - like that cozy blanket, or that soft lap dog nesting by the fire.

Images can also represent times of day! So by decorating them with other sensory clues, they can help you remember when to take them and takes the guessing game out of executive functioning! It’s a Win-Win! 👻🌌🌻🔮🌼

Alright Bodies! That’s it for today!

Remember to take your medications, supplements and all the lovely things that support your very YOUness in the world!

Ps Did you take your medications today? 😅🌞🎶 Let’s take them together 💊🕺🏻

I’m so excited to share this really funky way of reframing and re-making a To-Do List that actually works! Aka Not as a list! But as a visual sequence, as a doodle! This Play-Full, spacial and visual way of organizing information and to-do lists (has forever changed my life, and empowered the way I think and move through this World!) THANK YOU Josh for your word hug, that lead me to this BIG JUICY JOY! ❤️🙌🏻To the “Lowest Hanging Fruit” Tree 🌳 as a practice that fully supports of your executive functioning - functioning for you!!! 🍊 With love, joy and SOOOO MUCH EXCITEMENT for you to get your hands started! Paper to pen! To the new way into your day 🍊🌳🍌😅✨🤩🙌🏻🌳🍊Happy fruit picking friends!

Do you ever wake up anxious, wobbly and already at max capacity?!

When the morning begins with a clash of experiencing a buzzing high + draining mental fatigue about upcoming decisions you don’t know how to make, alongside the panic of not knowing how or what to prioritize in your day when everything feels of equal, frantic, urgency?! Aka When you wake up, and your executive functioning has already hit a wall 😒😫😭

You are not alone my friends 💛😝🌻🕊

May we all make tiny truths of today, in this very moment, to accept when we wake up anxious and out of sorts and want to melt and meltdown.

May we guide ourselves through the discomfort held in our togetherness, to move through despite our responsive anxiety and try little trusts with timers and stopwatches, writing rage pages,

tea-time-outs and pleasure within the pursuit of one tiny truth at a time, xo

Thanks for listening to the moments and supports required to be mindful inside of my anxious mornings that totally happen, and yes, happened today 🌿❄️✨💗

To the waves that will all break 🌊

From my Anxious Mornings to Yours,

xoxo T

To all the beautiful humans understanding more, or perhaps for the first time, their Neuro-Essential Joy later in life this is for you!

This episode is filled with ecstatic dance of peer-support, community connections and the joy of friendship virtual, IRL and online that ripples and flows so dearly in my life!

Looking deeper into the joy of language and audio notes (aka verbal processing is my learning style 😉) with dear friends that spark new ideas!

From Re-Wiring to Re-Patterning and inserting the vivid, visual download that inspired this episode and the conversations that made them happen!

Thank you to all of the beautiful people in my life for affirming the gratitude of

peer-support and the connection to the patterns of returning to community as a care practice and the agency to create new patterns in our ever changing, choice driven, value guided, loving, wholehearted lives!

PS HECK YES! This made me laugh, and felt very true to Taryn mentioning the joy for protein twice in this episode! Chicken in the intro, and Pepperoni Sticks in the Body 🙏😂💗 Fuel You Fire! & Nourish your Flame! Muahhh** T
