Ten Ways to Fortify Your Energetic Boundaries.

Ten Ways to Fortify Your Energetic Boundaries.Aug 20

We are electrical beings with an energy field designed to attract metaphysical lint. It's how we receive information, it feeds our intuition, it holds our authentic blueprint, but it also collects debris we have no use for, and we have to know how to Keep Reading

Building Self-Esteem. 10 things you can do to increase your confidence.Mar 20

Self-esteem is a tricky beast to navigate. It's like toxic shame. It's not a sexy topic, and few people care to admit it's an issue for them. But nearly everybody to some degree struggles with it occasionally (and, sadly, some constantly). If we Keep Reading

Is Anyone Truly Awesome At Time Management?

Is Anyone Truly Awesome At Time Management?Oct 23

The reason I ask is because the question is a true curiosity of mine. I would have to say that the most common fodder for self-loathing is a person's relationship to their own time management. Everyone seems to consider themselves deficient in it. Keep Reading

Dear Angel of Death… Not Today.Sep 26

I help Highly Sensitive People achieve & excel through nature & resilience strategies. 🍃

Kristy Sweetland
Are you an HSP? 👇 20-30% of the world’s popu Are you an HSP? 👇

20-30% of the world’s population is thought to be! So many heightened nervous systems can’t be an evolutionary anomaly. 

This set of traits is not a flaw or a design error. There is deep purpose to its nature. It’s an inherent gift. If only we can learn to harness it for its alchemical gold, not resist it through avoidance and succumb to overwhelm—because let’s face it…anybody who has experienced life as an HSP knows the constant onslaught of high sensory stimulation can absolutely be overwhelming. 🙏 

I’m here to help you convert that overwhelm to your greatest gift. 

From a state of boundaries, Yes, but self-imposed isolation & energetic suffocation? No. 

Freedom suits you. Expression is your gift. 

Give me a ❤️ if you understand! 

Much Love, 

Kristy

Instantaneous transformation... I’ve studied ( Instantaneous transformation... 

I’ve studied (and lived) the relationship between transformation, our intuition, mental health, and Mother Nature my entire life, but formally for the past two decades. One of the greatest fascinations of mine is around the research of “Awe”. 

My particular passion is specifically how our experience of feeling awed by nature positively affects our life. 🌟 

The research is pretty clear: Awe triggers transformative experiences that are oftentimes permanent. 

Meaning= our lives can be instantaneously altered by being in the right moment with nature, at the right time (even if we haven’t “scheduled” a transformative experience— ☺️.) 🌟 

But what many mistakenly believe is that feeling awed by nature requires free soloing El Capitan, rafting through class five rapids, or jumping out of an airplane. In fact, it’s been proven that the opposite is true. 

The spiritual & psychological growth that happens with awe generally happens in the quiet, gentle moments, when Adrenalin is not activated. It doesn’t require ultra-athleticism. It just requires us to stop, slow down, and find the right moment to disappear into.

Have you experienced this? Tell me in the comments, if so. 🙏👇

Stark Zen: A Memoir of Coming Alive depicts my lif Stark Zen: A Memoir of Coming Alive depicts my life’s wrecking ball transformation fifteen years ago. 

To say it changed my life would be a gross understatement. It was like having a bomb dropped on my entire existence. But when the dust settled, and I made my way through the glorious rubble, I found that what remained was all that ever mattered: Love, freedom, expression, soul, heart, universal connection and earthly interconnection. I was granted a new start with a gloriously blank canvas that my spirit was free to fill. 

It’s natural to feel terrified of your divine callings. They’re disruptive, yes. They obliterate your comfort zone. But so what if they come at an “inconvenient” time—they’re all that truly matter. They’re why you came to this planet at this time. They are the True You. You can’t repress, or deny, or run from your own heart. 

You’ve got what it takes. Your soul wrote this contract. You can do this. 🙏

So Much Love, 
Kristy

The journey of Emotional Self-Regulation can feel The journey of Emotional Self-Regulation can feel like a long, bumpy road. Especially for a Highly Sensitive Person who feels tortured, at times, by the depth of your own emotion. 

But this road, when followed with commitment and consistency, is guaranteed to work as hard as you do. If you’re willing to spend the energy to retrain and care for your nervous system, it will transform before your very eyes. It won’t happen overnight—you’re rewiring your brain, after all. But you will get there. 

You’ll get to the place where you will be in your life’s driver’s seat—not this emotional roller coaster. 

And though “what it takes” is no small feat, you’ve already increased your awareness by watching this video, which is actually in itself a self-reg tool. 

What to focus on today—

1.) Accept your feelings.

2.) Do not be ashamed of them.

3.) Believe you can cope as well as others do. Because you can. 

4.) Trust that your painful feelings will not last long. Don’t attach a bunch of drama to it—just feel the feelings, and be open to releasing them. The internal stories we build around “why” we’re feeling what we’re feeling are superglue. They keep us stuck in the emotion. 

5.) Assume there’s hope–you will step off your emotional rollercoaster eventually. Record every small improvement you notice. You’ll see the evolution! 🦋

I’m in awe of you. I know how hard this is, because I’ve done it myself. And I will continue on this journey of helping others take back their life for the rest of mine. 

Let’s keep going. 💪

Much Love, 
Kristy
