I love Pat's attitude around not caring what others think of him. His mindset around it has helped me to stop caring so much.

So, like he said - if you don't like hearing us talk, watch something else!

What is the Vagus Nerve?

The vagus nerve is the body’s longest cranial nerve, acting as a crucial communication highway from the brainstem to major organs, controlling functions like: ⬇️
- heart rate
- breathing
- digestion
- blood pressure
- mood
- reflexes such as swallowing, coughing, and sneezing

🙌 Techniques to help reset the vagus nerve:
- Breathe slowly and extend your exhale
- Hum, chant, or sing
- Splash your face with cold water
- Gargle
- Move your body rhythmically
- Practice grounding
- Laugh it out OFTEN

**I’m not a doctor, just know my body and what helps me! ❤️

Show up for your partner - that's what we do for each other.

Last night, I have an art reception and Pat was the only dude there for the majority of the event.

Not once did I feel guilty for keeping him there. I only felt grateful to have a partner who I know would rather be with me than be anywhere else.

Gratitude is one of the best things you can express when they show up. Makes their actions feel noticed and appreciated.

I appreciate you, Patrick!

NEW EPISODE IS OUT and what better topic to discuss than how our lives were uprooted after an unexpected electrical fire! 🔥

Despite the chaos, we discuss how we navigated this challenge, as well as the importance of communication, teamwork, and resilience.

We delve into the stress of explaining the situation to their children, handling the immediate aftermath, and finding gratitude during the Holidays.

This episode emphasizes the importance of preparedness, staying positive, and how to handle family hardships with grace and humor.

HOUSE FIRES ARE SCARY! We had to move out of our home suddenly because of an electrical fire and we're still absorbing what that means. The moments that hit me hardest are when I go to reach for something, but we aren't in our home, so it's not there.

Being out of our home for the holidays has taught us what's more important.

“Life Is Right Now”

A book’s title hasn’t hit me as hard as this one has as it’s sitting in my makeshift Office.

I grabbed it one of the many times we’ve been to our house this week.

Being uprooted right before the Holidays sucks. I’d much rather be thinking about decorating for Christmas than about fire restoration, but hey. It’s where we are.

My Office right now is set up in the corner of a studio on an drafting table. My window blinds are a couple sheets of cardboard on an easel, and my gear closet doesn’t exist. 😵‍💫

We aren’t Home, but it’s a whole lot better than a hotel with lumpy pillows and stiff sheets!

I know we’ll be back before we know it and this chapter will be a thing of the past for us all (animals included)

We are thankful for our Home, even though it’s missing Sheetrock and insulation and look forward to the day where we can all feel settled again. ❤️

Happy Thanksgiving to you all! We love our HH podcast crew.

Life is beautiful, no matter the phase.

Xo,
Liv and Pat

Feel ALL the feelings. Get them OUT of your body, feel them, acknowledge them, and then move on to the learning and adapting phase.

Relationships involve hardship and if you continue to bottle it up, you'll eventually explode.

More on the full episode about the raw realities of relationships with kids and after divorce.

So today, I got Pat on a horse 🤣

Was he good? No, he wasn’t. But the time we had outside together helped me process all the things and plans I was struggling with internally.

Fire restoration, insurance agents, contractors, lawyers investigating our house fire, work deadlines that are creeping up faster than expected because of the fire.

So many reasons for us to turn away from each other, yet we continue to show compassion for one another as we adjust to this phase in our lives ❤️❤️

That, my friends, is what love is to me.
