FAMILIES Speak: Woo or Not… How Does Our Energy Affect Things?

Coming Up for Air — A Toolkit to Help with Your Loved One's Recovery from Addiction & Mental Illness

Words are important. But what may be even more important than words is the energy behind them. How do our body language, the tone of our voice, the thoughts we’re thinking, the feelings we’re feeling, and what we’re grappling with in any moment, affect things with others around us, for example with our Loved One? As we reorient and become more aware of our energy, it’s astounding what we’re able to heal in our relationships. Learn some simple ways to diffuse the tension and clean up your side of the street.

** Starting in August of 2025, the support group that Kayla facilitates will be offered on a sliding scale.
