Today marks the one year anniversary of publishing my new book.

I will be celebrating at my Book Signing tomorrow at Chapters Crowfoot. Please join me. Thank-you to all the courageous warriors that have found the strength to have a voice and speak your truth. It has been an honour and privilege to meet and talk to each and everyone.

Author - Debbie Ehrstien, Debbie Ehrstien, International Day of Yoga, Love, Meditation, The Dissociate: A memoir of secrets and survival of childhood sexual abuse

In Chapter Seven of my book: Self-care Throughout Healing and Beyond                  I talk about coming back into my body through Yoga.

“When I first learned about Yoga, I felt a little intimidated by the practice. Combining breath control, simple meditation and the adoption of specific bodily postures meant that I needed to focus on many things……at the same time. I felt I was seasoned at doing each of these things in isolation but all together?

After time on the mat, practice and persistence has paid off.

Here are a few benefits I’ve noticed:

lower stress levels, calmer and more peaceful, better flexibility, increased muscle strength, and my overall athletic performance during exercise has improved

See you on the mat!

Eating Your Way to a Healthier Happier You

Here’s a little sneak peek at one of the chapters in my upcoming Book

My Self Care Diet
All my friends know me as a Foodie. I have a love for cooking and eating. Diet & nutrition and many other lifestyle changes has led to a healthier happier me. I became interested in what I was consuming because at times I felt horrible after eating certain foods. Mentally and physically. After all, we are what we eat right?
I had the pleasure of getting to know a friend who ate like a caveman. But he certainly didn’t look like one. He was the picture of health. His way of eating was called ‘Paleo diet’.
The Paleo way of eating is an effort to eat like we used to way back in the day. Consisting of a clean diet without additives, preservatives, or chemicals. No refined sugars or processed foods. And an abundance of organic vegetables, oils, nuts and seeds. And meat.
I didn’t adopt the paleo culture completely because I choose to eat meat and seafood only occasionally.

In my upcoming book I list the foods that have led to a healthier happier me. 😊

 

And the Editing Process Begins……

Childhood Sexual Abuse, Debbie Ehrstien, Editing Process, Lea Storry, Supporters, Survivors

I’m so fortunate to be working with Lea Storry, Editor and Professionally trained Journalist. Lea has lived and worked around the world – The Gambia, South Korea, New Brunswick, Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, Nova Scotia and the Northwest Territories.

My manuscript is with Lea and is in the editing process as we speak. The rewriting/redrafting process has been a lot more work then I originally anticipated. I believe my readers will thank me for this in the end.

I’m looking forward to sharing my story with the world and making a difference in the lives of survivors of childhood sexual abuse & their supporters.

❤️Debbie

Happy Valentines Day 

For me, it’s not about celebrating couples it’s about celebrating love. My heart has never felt so open.  If you’re single right now, it’s exactly where you need to be.

My gift to you this Valentines Day is a meditation I came across – Open to Receive Love and Abundance Meditation. Enjoy!

Binaural Beats, Debbie Ehrstien, Meditation

A good friend introduced me to binaural beats.
These beautiful beats can induce the same mental state as a meditation practice but more quickly.
Our brains generate random thoughts to a tune of 50,000 per day.

Clearing the mind of negative thoughts and reducing stress is important for our well being. I’ve now incorporated both meditation and binaural beats into my daily practice. I’ll share the link that my friend shared with me.
