Kim Burris Psychotherapy

Shed the layers of cultural conditioning that ask you to have it all figured out, put your best foot forward and never let your messy self show up. Leading with heart means leading with authenticity. Being a real human means being awesome even when you are a hot mess. It's ok to be real. Be seen. Be known and be loved.... If you've forgotten any of this, you're not alone. Now it's time to come home to yourself. If you're stuck repeating old patterns, unsure of where to go next, reach out. That's what getting support on this path of being human is all about.

Anxiety is a symptom, not a life sentence. It's not a chemical imbalance you were born with and have to suffer through. Anxiety is a symptom. It’s guiding you towards the unconscious buried pain living within. Anxiety doesn’t mean you’re broken. It’s showing you exactly where your loving care and attention is required. ... Anxiety is a symptom. A sign. It's lighting up the path of deeper wisdom guiding you home. It's showing you where you are out of alignment, needing care and loving attention. You didn't 'cause' it. You haven't done anything wrong. Try not to let your mind distract you from the pulsing guidance that arrives with each frantic distracted breath. Know that you are not alone in the struggle. Know that you aren't meant to figure it all out alone. Find support that works for YOU and let yourself be supported.

Meditation gets a bad rap. So many people have given up on meditation being helpful because they can’t ‘make their mind be still’. It’s a common misperception that meditation means you can sit and have no thoughts. Your brain’s job is actually to think, so if you have a mind, it will be thinking! Here’s what I want you to know: If you are a human, and breathing, you can meditate (promise!).... I encourage you to try the grounding guided meditation on my blog (link below) and see how it goes. Check in with the quality of your thoughts, your feelings and the tension in your body before and after the practice. If you notice even 1% more ease, more calm and/or less tension, then I would encourage you to keep practicing. One minute a day cultivating compassion adds up to a lot more self-care over time than zero minutes a day. Remember that meditation is not just about making the mind be quiet, but about connecting with your Self, your deep inner wisdom and radiant heart, one breath at a time. And hey, sometimes sitting in stillness with your breath, body and heart can activate deep discomfort and be more activating than it is relaxing. If this happens for you, I would encourage you to seek out a meditation teacher or holistic therapist to help you find a practice that will be supportive and transformative. I am trained as both a holistic therapist as well as a meditation and yoga teacher, so reach out if you are looking for support (kimburris.com) You can find the meditation here: https://www.kimburris.com/med/5-minute-grounding-meditation xokim

People often ask me how I can sit and listen to peoples problems all day. That’s actually not my job. My job is to sit with beautiful humans with fierce curiosity, compassion, kindness and love.... I am like a detective, seeking with relentless determination for the way in...to find the place where the human sitting across from me has lost or forgotten that they are a miraculous amazing and perfect creation. Once the thread is found, the client now has a piece of their life map for finding their way home whenever they get lost. It’s not your job to be perfect and never stumble. You only need to have a map and some tools to stay the path. Keep going dear heart. Keep going. From my heart to yours, kim {Fear less. Love more. Live now. Holistic Psychotherapy for Anxiety.
