Your review is both painful and accurate. Damn you!
(but also thanks for your time and effort...I know that constructive [scathing] criticism takes time 😂)

A photo of a woman embracing herself in a golden field at sunset.
Befriending myself has been, and continues to be, an ongoing journey that is filled with more riches than I ever imagined. Learning to hold myself through my sorrow and confusion is not always easy, but as I practice it, it becomes more natural.

Emotions are wise teachers, revealing truths, insights, and parts of ourselves we may overlook. Approach them with curiosity, and even the hardest feelings can guide you. heartalchemy.substack.com/p/befriendin... #mindfulness #awareness #therapistsky #psychsciski #therapy #mentalhealth #emotions
Envy isn’t fun, but it’s human. Gratitude won’t erase envy, but it softens it. Try noticing envy, then name 3 things you’re grateful for. Let them sink in. It helps. 🌱

A cream background with the words "You are worthy" in the middle, a spiral on top, and "Heartfelt with Savita" at the bottom.
You are worthy, no matter your body, success, relationship status, family ties, or mental health. It’s okay to forget, but don’t lose sight of the truth: your worth isn’t earned. It’s inherent. You are worthy just by being you 💙

Feeling stuck in self-judgment? Shame doesn’t fuel growth. I help clients build from self-love because real change starts with what’s right. 💛 You’re not broken.

I was this many years old when I finally made a marking rubric for my honours thesis students 🙈
Learning objectives and expectations should be explicit. I know this and yet here we are...2025.

A river at sunset with the words "embracing change is a strength".
There's so much uncertainty in the world right now, and I feel it deeply in my own life, too. It’s tempting to resist the unknown, but I’ve been working on embracing it, along with change, our only constant.

A photo of light on a lake with the words "letting emotions flow through you is a strength".
Some "strengths" are just strategies to keep us small, avoiding pain. And some "weaknesses"? They're actually powerful strengths, waiting to be nurtured and given space to bloom.

The illusion of separateness is strong but if you take a moment to pause and look at a person, a cat, or even a tree, you can find many more ways that we are similar than different. We belong to each other.

A cute cat with the words "being vulnerable is a strength".
Just your daily reminder that being vulnerable is a strength, not a weakness 💙

TFW you realize you read a bunch of papers last year (as evidenced by notes) but have no memory of having done so or the papers themselves. 🤦🏻♀️

How can you bring kindness and attention to what’s present right now, even when it’s hard? Nurturing ourselves through every emotion, the good, the bad, and everything in between, is an act of deep care. 💙

The moon rising over the mountains with the text "where can you soften into forgiveness"?
It can feel easier to hold onto harshness, to let your anger fester, not to forgive. But our world needs now, more than ever, the power of forgiveness. How can you soften and see the other person as whole and good (and human)?

A beautiful sunset on a beach with three people on the beach. Words read "hold yourself tenderly".
I cannot stress enough the importance of tenderness. Don't forget to be gentle to yourself, your loved ones, and even those you pass on the street. In these times our kindness is needed more than ever 💙

A field of flowers with the words "The work of mindfulness is first to recognize the suffering and second to embrace it. - Thich Nhat Hahn"
Oh, how we long to run away from our suffering, which only leads to stagnation and deeper-rooted pain. Thich Nhat Hahn talks about cradling our suffering with tenderness and love. What does your suffering need to tell you right now?

Peachy/orange background with the words "Change is my ally, leading me to transformation and growth in the new year".
Change can feel really scary sometimes. Looking at change as our ally can help us take responsibility for our lives and shift our relationship to it.
Let's step into the unknown together ✨

🚨new paper🚨Stereotypically, women are seen as more emotional than men. How is this translated into judgments of emotionality? In a paper by Megan Gorges we show that stereotypes turn into judgements when people aggregate multiple emotional expressions. #psychsciski #socialpsyc

New paper! Difficulty mindsets have prev. been studied wrt motivation for goals (as imposs., as valuable). They also matter for how you choose to reach goal (exercise, weight, academic)—taking the easy or the effortful route.
