Bonus Episode #72 : Our Need For Comfort & Support

TITLE

Our Need For Comfort & Support

GUEST

Solo episode

EPISODE OVERVIEW

Many of us are craving comfort, security and a sense of connection.  During uncertain times (like COVID-19), I’m seeing themes emerging, and many people are wanting a sense of normalcy and a return to the familiar.  I’m hearing about stress in relationships, and people may not be showing up for us the way we want them to, or how they did pre-COVID.  I talk about a number of ways we can create nurturing for ourselves.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • During COVID-19 we may be experiencing
    • Increased irritability
    • Increased restlessness
    • Comparative suffering (from Brene Brown)
    • Increased self-criticism
    • Increased negative self-talk
    • Feeling that whatever we do is not enough
    • Having a day where we don’t function well (or at all)
    • Decreased patience for technical problems
    • Not getting enough time to rest and recharge
  • Our need (desire) for unconditional love
  • Attachment wounds may be surfacting
  • We may be experiencing grief and loss
  • We want normalcy and routines that we experienced pre-COVID
  • We may be experiencing more hyper vigilance
  • We may be having to make hard decisions and setting hard boundaries
  • Things we can do for self care
    • Loving moving/joyful movement
    • Finding routine and structure
    • Being mindful about what we are consuming (media, who we follow)
    • Connection and support from people who understand us
    • Creativity—crafts, love notes, puzzles
    • Time outdoors
    • Time with pets
  • Everyone gets to decide what works for them

PODCAST HOST

Patricia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Coach.  She knows what it’s like to feel like an outcast, misfit, truthteller and black sheep.  Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation and a sense of self-compassion.  She created the podcast Unapologetically Sensitive to help other HSPs know that they aren’t alone, and that being an HSP has amazing gifts, and some challenges.  Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for HSPs that focus on understanding what it means to be an HSP, self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors us
