Have you been dreading the holiday season due to the presence of narcissistic individuals in your life? I have a transformative solution which is guided meditation.

By focusing on grounding exercises and intentional breathwork, you can effectively down-regulate your nervous system and cultivate a sense of safety, even amidst the stress.

Affirmations like "I am allowed to feel joy" and "I deserve peace" empower you to embrace your emotions and reclaim your right to happiness. Rooted in scientific principles, this meditation equips you with practical tools to manage triggers and approach interactions with narcissists from a place of calm logic, rather than survival responses.

With this powerful practice in your toolkit, you can navigate the holidays with greater ease and self-compassion, taking crucial steps towards healing.
