I healed enough to say yes to this.

Not because everything was perfect. Not because I had it all figured out.

Because I finally trusted what my body already knew.

There was a version of me that would have found every reason not to come. Too expensive. Too far. Too indulgent. Too much.

That version of me said no to a lot of things I actually wanted. I was stuck in fear and control. And didnā€™t know until I started healing.

This is not that version.

If your nervous system has been running the show ā€” keeping you safe by keeping you small ā€” I see you. I was you.

The yes gets easier. I promise. At first it doesnā€™t feel that way- it took me 8 months to get here- and was worth the crying- unraveling all of it- because I can experience life full now.

I didnā€™t know until I knew- if you want the part of the story I couldnā€™t share here- comment healing and I will DM you. Iā€™m sharing all of it. This is not mental health advice this is my own personal experience

Everyoneā€™s talking about what to release on the full moon.

The monkey understood the assignment.

šŸ’šŸŒ• I just stood there staring at him for a long time and couldnā€™t stop thinking about him releasing also šŸ˜†

Some people cry their first day in Bali.

Not from sadness.

From relief.

Because their nervous system finally landed somewhere that has been in unbroken devotional practice for over a thousand years.

The whole island is essentially one long ceremony.

And a body that has been bracing for decades doesnā€™t know what to do with that much safety.

So it releases.

I didnā€™t know any of that when I booked this trip.

I just knew I had to go.

I said yes before I knew why.

Thatā€™s Mount Agung behind me ā€” the most sacred volcano on the island. The Balinese believe itā€™s the home of the gods. Every temple on the island faces it.

I faced it at 6am and I understood everything and nothing at the same time.

Bali is a spiritual vortex. She doesnā€™t open for everyone. But when she chooses you, you feel it in your bones.

The deeper I heal, the more the universe rewards me with places like this.

As an LCSW I can explain the nervous system science behind why this island cracks people open.

But honestly? Some things are bigger than than the clinical explanation. What started in September 2025 in Isla Mujeres will only go deeper in Bali. I trust fully now- Iā€™m done white knuckling and am cracked open for what comes next.

I cried all day in Bal yesterday, my first day here.

Not because anything was wrong. Because something was finally ready to leave.

Old stuff. The kind thatā€™s been waiting years for you to be safe enough to feel it.

And then I woke up at 4:45 AM and couldnā€™t sleep and walked to the water and this is what was waiting on the other side of it.

The full moon this weekend is asking all of us to let go of what weā€™ve been carrying the longest. The stuff we stopped crying about because we got too busy surviving. Honestly once I saw the full moon information- I felt relieved. Not because thereā€™s anything wrong with crying all day- because it felt so old.

My nervous system knows. Thatā€™s why I was exhausted exhausted. Thatā€™s why everything feels like too much right now.

Itā€™s not a breakdown. Itā€™s a release.

Comment BALI and Iā€™ll send you what I wrote about whatā€™s actually happening when your body cries without warning.

I found myself on the beach in Bali crying.

Not tearing up. Full on sobbing.

And my LCSW brain immediately started analyzing ā€” is it the floods back home? The residual stuff Iā€™ve been carrying? The ATM card that still isnā€™t working?

And then my body just said: stop. let it rip.

If Iā€™ve learned anything about healing ā€” when it comes up, you let it come. My nervous system can handle it now. And apparently yours is ready to let go of something too.

Hereā€™s whatā€™s wild. I donā€™t think I could have come to Southeast Asia two years ago. My 50th birthday trip to the Philippines ā€” my husband and I were so burned out we were white-knuckling paradise. I personally wanted to leave early.

What started in September 2025 is still unfolding. Right here on this beach.

My sister arrives tonight. My niece tomorrow. Theyā€™re used to the version of me that smiled and said everythingā€™s fine.

Iā€™m not that person anymore.

Bali is known for cracking people open. I came here already open. I think itā€™s just going to take me deeper.

Comment BALI and Iā€™ll send you the part of the story I couldnā€™t share here. Stay tuned for the rest of what comes up as the week continuesā€¦. this is not mental health advice my own personal experience
