In this week’s Soul Tool, we’re exploring EFT Tapping, a simple, body-based practice that helps calm the nervous system, release stored emotion, and bring you back into balance.

EFT, Tapping or Emotional Freedom Techniques, combines gentle tapping on acupressure points with mindful awareness of what you’re feeling. It’s a beautiful way to help your body process stress and emotion instead of carrying it. In this episode, I’ll share how tapping works, why it’s so effective for calming the body, and how you can use it to regulate your energy and find safety in the present moment.

You’ll also be guided through a short tapping practice for stress, something you can do anytime, anywhere, to help your body soften and exhale. Whether you’re completely new to tapping or you’ve used it before, this is a space to slow down, learn, and experience what it feels like to create safety through your own touch.

This isn’t about fixing or forcing anything. It’s about meeting yourself with compassion and reminding your body that it’s safe to feel. Sometimes, a few gentle taps and a single deep breath can change everything.

We often think healing has to look big like a yoga class, a deep journaling session or a long drawn out morning routine with all the things. And while those practices are beautiful and needed at times, they’re only part of the story. True healing also happens in the small, ordinary moments we often overlook. The breath you take between tasks. The warmth of the sun on your skin. The moment you pause long enough to feel present in your own body.

In this episode, I explore the magic of micro moments. How the smallest choices and pauses can bring you back to yourself in ways that feel grounding and so, so deep. We’ll talk about how social media can make healing look like a full-time job, why that’s not the truth, and how these quiet moments of presence are often where the real transformation begins.

There will be seasons when you prioritise the bigger practices, and others where the micro ones hold you together and both matter because healing isn’t about doing more. It’s about being here, noticing the tiny threads of calm that already exist in your day, and realising they’ve been guiding you home all along.

We live in a world overflowing with information. Books, podcasts, courses, and endless advice on how to heal, grow, and 'change'. Awareness and knowledge are important, but without embodiment, they stay at the surface. The body and soul don’t respond to logic or ideas alone, they respond to safety, presence, and the lived experience of what we’ve learned.

In this episode, I explore why true healing begins when we stop collecting and start living. I share from my own journey of getting stuck in learning mode, and how embodiment (feeling, practising, and integrating) became the bridge between knowing and actually healing. Together, we’ll explore how to slow down, choose one practice at a time, and let it sink into your body until it becomes part of who you are.

Because healing doesn’t happen in the collecting. It happens in the living, in the breath, the moment, the practice of showing up for yourself again and again.

Anxiety can feel overwhelming, confusing, and all-consuming. The racing thoughts, the tight chest, the restless energy, it often leaves us believing something is wrong with us. But anxiety is not a flaw or a weakness. At its core, anxiety is the body’s way of signalling that it doesn’t feel safe. It’s the nervous system preparing for threat, even when no danger is truly present.

In this episode, I share parts of my own journey with anxiety, from being diagnosed as a teenager to the way it intensified when I became a mum. We’ll explore what anxiety really is, why it shows up in the body, and how it is often less about brokenness and more about protection. Together, we’ll look at how anxiety can reveal where we’re overloaded, where boundaries are needed, or where old wounds are still alive within us.

Most importantly, we’ll explore gentle, safe ways to move through anxiety, by acknowledging it, reconnecting with the body, and allowing the energy to shift rather than stay stuck. This isn’t about forcing calm or pushing the anxiety away, but about creating safety little by little, one breath at a time, so you can begin to feel more grounded and at home within yourself.

This meditation invites you to slow down and reconnect with your body, breath, and energy with gentle awareness. Through a simple scan of your body and a soft hand-to-heart practice, you’ll learn to listen to what’s present without judgement or pressure. You’ll also be guided to notice the subtler energetic layers within and around you, opening a space of trust and safety. This practice is a grounding way to come home to yourself, reminding you that even the smallest moments of attention can build deeper self-connection.

So often we move through our days caught in our heads without pausing to notice what our body is carrying. Yet the body holds a quiet wisdom that can guide us back to ourselves when we take the time to listen.

In this Soul Tool episode, I share the practice of body check-ins. This gentle tool is about pausing for a moment and asking, “How am I feeling in my body right now?” It’s an invitation to notice sensations, energy, and subtle cues that can tell you more about what you need than your mind ever could. From the tightness that signals a no, to the ease that signals a yes, the body speaks to us in contraction and expansion, heaviness and lightness, discomfort and flow.

You’ll learn how to use body check-ins for everyday decisions, emotional awareness, and self-connection. There’s no right or wrong here, only curiosity and presence. Each time you turn toward your body, you remind yourself that your inner world matters, that your needs are worthy of attention, and that you already hold the wisdom to guide yourself home.

This is a simple practice, but it can change everything.

Disappointment is one of those quiet heartbreaks we all carry, yet rarely talk about. It arrives when expectations fall short, when trust is broken, when what we dreamed of doesn’t match what we receive. Sometimes it’s small, other times it feels life-altering, but it always leaves an imprint in the body, the heart, and the nervous system.

In this episode, I share openly about my own experience with disappointment and through this story, we’ll explore what it truly means to move through disappointment in a healthy way. Together we’ll look at the importance of naming it, validating it, and allowing the sensations to rise and move through the body. We’ll talk about honouring boundaries, taking action when needed, and holding the tender parts of ourselves that old wounds awaken.

This conversation isn’t about bypassing or rushing through what hurts. It’s about slowing down enough to meet disappointment with compassion, honesty, and love, and discovering that even in the hardest moments, there is a way to come home to yourself.

For so long, I searched for pieces of myself in other people. In relationships that almost felt right. In friendships that only loved the version of me that stayed small. In mentors, in family, in anyone who seemed to carry what I thought I was missing. I didn’t realise it at the time, but I was trying to feel whole, to belong, to be seen.

The truth I’ve come to know is this... you can’t find a part of yourself in somebody else. Not in their approval, not in their love, not in their presence. No matter how genuine or beautiful, it will never feel like enough until you see yourself as worthy. Healing begins when you stop handing others the map and start walking yourself home.

In this Love Note, I share the tender remembering that everything you’ve been searching for already lives inside you. This is a gentle invitation to pause, to breathe, and to find yourself again in the stillness, in the boundaries you hold, and in the love you give yourself. Because the person you’ve been waiting for… has always been you.

This meditation gently guides you to meet a part within you and offer safety, curiosity, and compassion. You’ll learn to notice how a protective part shows up in your body, name what it needs, and soften your inner response so it no longer has to work so hard. Through breath, grounding, and simple dialogue, you’ll create space for understanding and inner harmony, leaving with a calmer nervous system and a clearer sense of self.

There are parts within each of us that quietly shape the way we think, feel, and respond to life. They’re not flaws or signs that we’re broken, they’re younger versions of us, carrying old stories, emotions, and protective patterns. Sometimes those parts still believe we’re back in the past, reliving what once was, even when our adult selves know things are different now.

In this episode, I explore what it really means when we say a part of us is “stuck in the past.” We’ll talk about how these parts are formed, the way they show up in everyday moments like conflict, relationships, or even self-doubt, and how to begin meeting them with compassion rather than judgment. You’ll hear stories and examples that bring this to life, along with gentle practices to help you build safety and connection with the parts of you that still need to know they are seen, loved, and safe.

When we learn to hold our parts, rather than push them away, we create space for healing, wholeness, and a coming home to ourselves.
