Positive & Adverse Childhood Experiences (PACES) Hawai‘i
He ‘a‘ali‘i kū makani mai au; ‘a‘ohe makani nāna e kūla‘i.
I am a wind-withstanding ‘a‘ali‘i; no wind can topple me over.

"Pour out from our saucer"

 

I hear the expression, "make sure that your cup is getting filled," but that means we might be at a point where our cup is empty or half empty and needs to be filled. The caution is always given that if you are "thirsty in the desert, it is too late you are dehydrated." So in theory, we should always be practicing self-care so that we are pouring out to those we serve because we are "overflowing" from our own "cup." I know optimistic yet ideal target to shoot for in our daily life. One way we can strive toward this goal is to make a commitment to take care of ourselves.

This is an incredible article on how getting out getting active can help in building wellness and resilience. I also highly recommend reading up or attending workshops provide information on the vagus nerve. The "wandering" nerve runs throughout our body and when the stress response system is activated, the "body keeps the score."

Mahalo to Dr. Glen Schiraldi for this article.
