Inner Space Des Moines

Jacey explores how everyday life becomes the practice. Every trigger, frustration, and emotional reaction is an opportunity to pause, turn inward, and ask, What part of me is being activated right now? Rather than reacting on autopilot, you can begin using these moments as invitations for healing and growth.

This is Part 4 of a 4-part series. I hope these videos have given you a new perspective on anxiety and empowered you with practical tools to better understand yourself.

What is one insight or takeaway you’ve had from this series?

Jacey explores the core fear or maladaptive belief that often lives beneath anxiety, emotional reactivity, and protective behaviors. The goal isn’t to judge or get rid of these parts of yourself, but to understand them. When you begin identifying the beliefs driving your reactions and respond with compassion, validation, and reassurance, you create the safety those parts have been searching for all along.

This is Part 3 of a 4-part series. Next week, we’ll bring everything together by exploring how everyday life becomes the practice. Every trigger, frustration, and emotional reaction can become an invitation to turn inward, ask what part of you is being activated, and choose growth over autopilot.

What’s one belief you’ve uncovered about yourself that you’re learning to challenge or heal?

Jacey explores what happens when we stop avoiding, numbing, distracting, or dissociating from our discomfort and instead become curious about it. Rather than trying to get rid of anxiety, you’ll begin asking what part of you feels unsafe, threatened, or overwhelmed and what it may be trying to protect.

This is Part 2 of a 4-part series. Next week, we’ll go even deeper by uncovering the core fear or maladaptive belief beneath these patterns and begin learning how to respond to that part with compassion, validation, and self-trust.

What do you notice yourself reaching for when anxiety shows up?

Walk with Jacey through a simple, real-time regulation practice to help calm anxious energy and bring your nervous system back to the present moment.

This is Part 1 of a 4-part series, so be sure to follow along. Next week, Jacey invites you to explore sitting with the anxious part of you rather than numbing, avoiding, dissociating, distracting, etc.
