We’re Moving Through These Levels of Suckitude and It’s Not as Bad as We Thought It Would Be // Tea With Robin Episode 154

On a healing journey, we often find that there can be an intensity experienced when moving through old energies and releasing them. I call it suckitude. We are moving through the suckitude… and often it feels hard and challenging. But in the bigger picture, we are moving through. Maybe, hopefully, we are finding out as we make our way that it’s not as bad as we once feared it would be. This conversation today is about the personal journey we’re on — the emotional one, the codependent journey we’re healing from, and then also our experience of being in the… …Read More »

What To Do About Upset on Social Media

“Wow, I am so surprised to hear that you still struggle with this!” I had been sharing about my bouts with depression and this person commented that they were so surprised to hear that I still struggled after all this time. And honestly, it pissed me off for a while — when people talk down at you as if their stuff is all together and yours isn’t, it can be a bit triggering. (ahem, especially when from where you’re standing, it is so not the case) And then I touched in with the sorry knowing: Many of us believe IT… …Read More »

You Are Not a Problem // Tea with Robin Episode 144

You are a person on the journey who had experiences that left you changed. What if you didn’t see yourself as a problem? You are not a problem. Calling yourself a problem is to deny your needs. When we act like we don’t have needs around our wounding we are in denial. No wonder there is suffering. No wonder we struggle. Learn to love the one in you who was hurt and you’ll get yourself free. What I see is we keep getting into the same familiar situations that we went through as kids. Difficult scenarios. How many more times… …Read More »

Our Dads Were on a Journey Too

our dads were on a journey too

I was baking cookies when my aunt called to say that my dad had died. She had to repeat herself twice. And the shock of it all was so much that I burned my arm on the oven rack, forgetting to use the oven mitts. I still have the scar along the inside of my forearm. It was Christmas time, and our household was in the midst of Gingerbread House Party preparations. People were coming and this wasn’t supposed to be happening now. I had been calling my dad for over a week, becoming more and more pissed at him… …Read More »

Send Your Love, Not Your Worries

Send your love, not your worries

This is a drawing of Ganesha I am working on. Although he is often considered the remover of obstacles, he also places obstacles in the path of those who need them 😉  Published on: Nov 10, 2015 I am in a position of loving people through difficult things Sometimes people witnessing those going through the difficult time will say to me: But what can I do?! I am so far away, I don’t really know what I can offer. These sweet friends will be sitting with guilt and worry and not really know what to do. As we hear about friends… …Read More »

The Abundance Series: Healing Our Money Stories

This has been such an interesting week at “work” in healing sessions…the topic came again and again of how hard it is to allow time for us in the ways we want and just let our needs be important without feeling guilty, or justifying, or defending, or having to do a ton of things for everyone else first. Do you have those things you love to do but you feel guilty about it? Do you ever feel like you need to justify it or even earn your way to have your time just for you? Do you feel worried that… …Read More »

On Loving and Accepting Ourselves, No Matter What

Here’s the truth. Even though I don’t love it, sometimes I get down and I will feel anxiety and panic too. It happens unexpectedly, and in my “extensive research” I find that paying attention to the feelings without loving kind self-care will often make it worse. I guess even my feelings adhere to the law of attraction: that which I focus on increases. And so more than anything I turn to a practice to support me. In my heart I know it’s not the biggest deal that we may feel down even if other people don’t agree…I talk with enough… …Read More »
