Social media has created a whole new industry where there are now therapist specializing in social media addiction and the depression, anxiety, and attempted suicides that come with it. And I’m NOT just talking about adults... I work with one of those amazing therapy centers. I am so thankful for the work that Paradigm San Francisco does to help our youth, and the value they see from having sound healing as part of their program once a week. This is real. For something that is suppose to bring us together, and be a source of information, how can we empower our youth when they are inundated by highlight reels? I’m not saying take away screen time... this is still a powerful tool! But how do we empower our youth on social media? I don’t know what it’s like to be a parent. But I can tell you that our kids need us. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be hired by these therapy centers to work with them...
What dialog are you having with your children around social media? Have you experienced a dialog around comparison, depression, anxiety, or sexuality from what they are seeing on these channels? Comment below.
(Thank you ahead time for anyone commenting on this sensitive topic.)

Good morning!! Just 18 hours left to support Soundembrace wellness app. Thank you for your messages, ideas, and hugs! Especially the hugs!!! I've needed them. It's been "one of those weeks"... you know the kind.. the kind where the overwhelm makes you second guess things. Even second guessing yourself. These moments are such blessings though. You get to see what you are made of, and if you don't like what's coming up, you can change it! I find so much strength in looking back at what I have accomplished in this field; providing sound healing for corporate companies like LinkedIn, Wix, and Casper. Collaborating with LuLuLemon and Studio Mix SF. And what I feel is my biggest accomplishment, is working with Paradigm San Francisco supporting kids dealing with various degrees of trauma. SHOOT! I'm also teaching other practitioners to do this and have 4 people I hire to do sound healing work from contracts I obtain! This overwhelm is temporary. To be a part of helping so many people see and experience life in a new way... is a reward I'm willing to sacrifice and work for. I wish this was around when I was sick and loosing hope... The link for the campaign is in the bio. Please donate $5. It is a small amount that will help in a big way! Thank you so much!
