3. Borderline Personality Disorder: Finding Emotional Regulation through Nature, Slowing Down + Self Compassion ~ Amanda Phillips

Send us a text

We dive deep with Amanda Phillips into her experience with Borderline Personality Disorder/Emotional Disregulation Disorder; her experience in healing through Wwoofing (volunteering on organic farms), connecting with nature, eating healthy foods, advocating for herself and of course self compassion.

Finding her way through the uncertain and often terrifying world of pharmaceuticals and allopathic care alongside nature; and finding balance in the end with a foot on each side.
