Ready to Get Out of Your Own Way?

Do you get in your own way?

Maybe you’re a perfectionist, feeling like your work is never good enough, afraid to show it to others unless it’s absolutely perfect.

Maybe you’re really good at giving to others, and really terrible at asking for your needs to be met. You have trouble delegating but wish others would do more.

Maybe you’re feeling anxious about certain tasks, and so you procrastinate and avoid them, and maybe you’re not even sure why you’re feeling anxious.

Our childhood experiences leave wounds that affect how we interact with the world. And when we heal those wounds, we see the world differently.

You don’t have to struggle anymore. It gets to be easier.

I’m offering a group taster hypnotherapy session at the Tillamook SBDC on January 25, 2023, at 4:00 pm. It costs just $20 to take part. To register, email me at meredith@ideation.guide.

And if you’d like to just jump in and start working with me individually, I have 3 spots open. 1 conscious strategy session + 1 hypnotherapy session = $414. Email me at meredith@ideation.guide to grab your spot!

Just move your body in whatever way it wants to with frequency specific music that will help you move out whatever needs to go.

LNWC Annual Meeting and Speaker Series

Submitted By: info@nehalemwatershed.org – Click to email about this post
LNWC Annual Meeting and Speaker Series: The Role of Red Alder in the Oregon Coast Range w/ Andy Bluhm

On January 12th, 2023 the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council will be hosting both their Annual Meeting and a presentation w/ Andy Bluhm, OSU’s Associate Program Director of the Hardwood Silviculture Cooperative, who will share new insight into a common tree in the Nehalem Watershed, the red alder.

The LNWC’s Annual Meeting will start at 5 pm. The Annual Meeting consists of board elections, selection of board officers, and the Annual Report. All members are welcome to attend to vote in board elections. The Annual Report will be a summary of council activities in 2022 including progress reports on restoration designs, planting projects, and regional collaborations. It’s been a busy year for the council so we hope you’ll come early to learn about what we’ve been up to.

Andy Bluhm’s presentation on red alder will begin at 7 pm. This presentation will introduce the characteristics of red alder and summarize the ecological role that red alder plays in the Oregon Coast Range. We’ll look at how red alder fits into the big picture of PNW ecosystems then examine the red alder’s effect on diversity, site productivity, community resiliency, and ecosystem function. Specific emphasis will be placed on the function red alder has in riparian systems and it’s influence on riparian communities.

In addition to a B.S. in Forestry from the University of Minnesota and an M.S. in Forest Ecology/Silviculture from the University of Georgia, Andy has spent the last 20 years at OSU as the Associate Program Director of the Hardwood Silviculture Cooperative- focusing on the biology and management of red alder. Other research projects at OSU have included directing the red alder management program for the OSU College Forests, managing a long-term study on alternative silvicultural practices, installing and measuring a Swiss Needle Cast research plot network, and coordinating the PNW Permanent Sample Plot network. His main duties include everything from education and outreach, data collection to growth and yield modeling and everything in between. In his free time, he enjoys exploring PNW old-growth forests in pursuit of big trees.

Andy is an expert on this foundational tree in our watershed and will have a wealth of information to share with us. Hopefully, everyone will walk away from this talk with a new appreciation for Red Alders and the roles they play in the Nehalem.

Both the Annual Meeting and the presentation will be hosted on Zoom and are free to the public. The zoom link is us02web.zoom.us/j/83650617243 or on the Faceboook event at www.facebook.com/lnwc1.

You can also contact the watershed council at info@nehalemwatershed.org. A recording of this presentation will also be posted on the LNWC’s YouTube channel with our other recorded presentations. Just search for “Lower Nehalem Watershed Council” on YouTube.

Event Information: This event is FREE and open to the public. Find more information on our speaker series and the links for access on our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/lnwc1).

6:00 PM – warmup/set-up
6:30 PM – opening circle/dance set

$10-$20 donation to cover the grange rental
***We dance every Thursday. Join us!

Playlist this week is 5Rhythmns inspired and put together by Fae
You are invited to come dance in the theme –Showing up as we are: respecting what is showing up today, in ourselves, our community and in our world–as we honor and give thanks for that which came before.

“In dancing 5Rhythms you can track perceptions and memories; seek out gestures and shapes; tune into instincts and intuitions. They reveal ways to creatively express aggressiveness and vulnerability, emotions and anxieties, edges and ecstasies. They reconnect us to cycles of birth, death and renewal and hook us up to the spirit in all living things. They initiate us back into the wisdom of our bodies and unleash movement’s dynamic healing power.”

**We are encouraging everyone to be mindful of each other’s safety and health and stay home if you are not feeling well, or have been exposed to someone sick. Follow your own judgment on whether to wear a mask or not.**

Dance for Healing – open dance sessions

Submitted By: Christy@cosmichealingnw.com – Click to email about this post
Hello!!!
This open dance session is for everyone! Come as you are, and allow the music to move you. When we are stressed or experiencing trauma, we often hold these things in our bodies, and movement is a wonderful way to release them. This is a non performative experience, meaning, the only thing required is to allow the music to move your body in whatever way it wants to. Please don’t allow worry or fear of judgement to stop you. Those who are new to dancing or using movement in this way are especially welcome. Let’s face it, the last few years many of us have been in survival mode and probably don’t even realize how this is affecting us physically, emotionally and mentally. Let’s come together and help each other release stress and tension in a safe environment, while having fun. Reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Hope to see you there!!
