Holding You in the Everyday
Why This Work Matters
Being with, not fixing
Why domestic care belong in healing spaces: Because it’s never just about what’s happening around you. It’s about how those moments land in you. The outer mess, the quiet ache, the things left unsaid all shape your inner world. Healing lives in the everyday, and this kind of care helps make space for it.
How I Can Support You
Practical care, held with heart
Whether it’s tending to the little things that feel too heavy, offering quiet presence in a messy moment, or helping you find your footing again—I meet you where you are. This is care, without fixing. Support, without pressure. Together, we make space to breathe.
Is This for You?
When life asks for softer hands
Signs you may be in a season where support can help you breathe, rest, and reset. I’ll also share ways to care for yourself without me—because this isn’t about grabbing attention, it’s about helping you walk away a little stronger and more sure of yourself.
Seva: Heartfelt Help
Seva is a Sanskrit word meaning selfless service—a sacred act of offering rooted in the yogic and Sikh traditions. Seva is lived through acts like preparing and sharing food in soup kitchens, where anyone—no matter class, or background—is fed with dignity and warmth. It’s not about saving others. It’s about showing up, together, in the spirit of equality, presence, and care.
Seva isn’t charity. It’s not performative giving or overextending yourself to feel worthy.
It’s humble, heart-led service—done with consent, mutual respect, and love.
It’s receiving help without shame.
It’s giving without keeping score.
And most of us have done seva without even realizing it.
Bringing soup to a friend too tired to cook. Helping someone move without expecting pizza. Sitting with someone in silence because words would have felt too loud. Bringing a coffee to someone who’s quietly unraveling. Cleaning with family help when it all just feels too much.
Seva is in the small, everyday offerings that say:
You don’t have to do this alone.
It’s not about fixing. It’s about witnessing, lightening, and gently tending to the weight of being human.
This is the thread that runs through everything I offer:
Not fixing. Not saving. Just serving—with reverence, honesty, and heart.
How I Can Support You
A warm meal after a draining week. The quiet of folding laundry while someone cried. A freshly made bed after surgery, a soft light in a room too full of grief. These aren’t grand gestures—but they reach.
Sometimes it’s walking the dog when someone can’t face the world. Sitting close while they open a stack of unopened mail. Being the calm in a moment that feels too loud.
None of it fixes everything. But it lightens the load, if only for a breath. This isn’t saviorism.
This is seva: support offered with consent, care, and respect.
You are still whole—especially when you need help.
There are no gold stars here.
No tally marks.
No “you owe me.”
Just mutual humanity.
You set the pace. You say yes, or not today.
And we honor that.
My Approach
I don’t come with an agenda. I come to be with you in whatever space you’re in.
Whether it’s organizing the corner of a room you’ve been avoiding for months, or simply sitting nearby while you rest, my work is rooted in presence. I tune in, gently, to your energy, your needs, and the environment around us. This work is never about fixing—it’s about supporting, in ways that feel nourishing and never overwhelming.
Sometimes that means we move—fold clothes, light incense, rearrange a drawer. Other times we pause—take breaths, hold silence, speak truth. Every interaction is consent-led and guided by what you feel ready for. I don't push. I listen—both to your words and to the unspoken language of your nervous system.
There is grace in the mundane when it’s witnessed with love.
And there is deep healing in being met exactly where you are, no masks, no expectations.
Why This Work Matters
We are not meant to carry everything alone.
And yet, so many of us do. Quietly. Daily. Invisibly.
​
The nervous system isn’t just reacting to what’s happening in front of us—it’s responding to what’s been carried, ignored, postponed, or quietly endured. Chronic stress, decision fatigue, and emotional overload don’t always look dramatic. Sometimes they look like forgetting to drink water, numbing out at a stoplight, or snapping at someone you love and wondering why did I react like that?
When we constantly run on empty, our window of tolerance—the space where we can feel, reflect, and respond with clarity—starts to shrink.
We go into survival mode. Fight. Flight. Freeze. Fawn.
Healing, connection, and creativity need space. They need nervous systems that feel safe. And when the weight of the mental load is unspoken, when the invisible to-do list, the emotional labor, the grief, the caretaking, the planning, the remembering, it builds up in our tissues, our thoughts, our breath.
​
​Sometimes, healing is just those small everyday things like:
-
Getting helping to organize that overwhelming pile on your kitchen counter so your mind can find peace.
-
Just another pair of hands in the kitchen, chopping vegetables or washing dishes, so you can rest without guilt.
-
It’s “body doubling” which is having someone quietly beside you as you tackle a task you’ve been avoiding, not to rush or judge, but to hold space with you.
-
It’s finding non-judgment when you’ve been neglecting something for too long—someone who meets you where you are without pressure or shame.
Sometimes, doing the dishes is the healing.
Not because they’re done. But because, for once, someone else saw the pile and said, “Let me hold this with you.”
That’s the heart of Seva.
NOT to fix.
NOT to rescue.
But to witness, tend, and support the human behind the overwhelm.
​
This work matters because we live in a world that teaches us to be productive before present. Independent before interdependent. Stoic before soft. But our bodies remember a deeper truth. We are not here to just get through life. We are here to feel it. To be in it. To receive care as much as we give it.
Seva, in this space, is a return. A sacred remembering.
That you are not too much. That your needs matter. That being supported is not a weakness, it’s part of being human.
​
And I offer this not just because I can, but because I’ve lived the opposite. I’ve held myself together through storms I never spoke of.
I’ve smiled while quietly drowning. And my healing began when I let someone help me carry what I could no longer hold alone.
So now I offer what I needed then.
A hand. A pause. A breath. A moment to feel seen.
Because even small things can be sacred when done with love.
Is This For You?
You're not too much. You're not making it up. And you're not alone.
Support can look like a deep breath when things feel too loud.
It can be someone walking beside you while you figure out what you want, or holding space for the parts of you that feel messy, unsure, or quietly unraveling. This isn’t about fixing you, it’s about helping you meet yourself with honesty, softness, and strength.
Maybe you're carrying more than you can name. Maybe you don't feel like yourself anymore. Maybe you're just ready to stop pretending you're fine.
If that resonates, this kind of care is here for you.
My Approach
A gentle note:
These practices aren’t a fix-all, and they’re not meant to be. They’re small steps and tiny offerings that might help you feel a little more anchored in the moment. Some may resonate. Others may not. That’s okay.
What matters most is that you keep seeking what does work for you.
These are tools that have helped me in my own journey, but your path is your own. I share them not as solutions, but as invitations to explore, to reflect, to stay open. Healing isn’t one-size-fits-all, and we’re not here to perform perfection. We’re here to get real, to get curious, and hopefully, to feel a little lighter day by day.
​
You deserve support that meets you where you are. Whether it’s with me or somewhere else, I hope you find what helps you feel more like you again.
In Public
-
Carry a small object in your pocket that reminds you of safety or strength (a stone, a coin, a note).
​​
-
Press your feet into the ground and gently name five things you can see or hear.
​
-
Place one hand on your belly and breathe into it like you would comfort a child.
In Quiet
-
Write down what’s bothering you—then crumple or burn the page.​
​
-
Stand in the shower and imagine the water washing heaviness off you.​
​
-
Sit with your eyes closed and say, “I am safe. I am not alone. I am learning.”
In Overwhelm
-
Find a wall and lean against it for support. Feel your weight.​
​
-
Whisper what you wish someone would say to you.
​
-
Let your shoulders drop. Unclench your jaw. Exhale slowly. Again.
