This is an important distinction to make especially when you are having those days that make you want to crawl back in the bed. You are… Continue reading Love Letter: Your Being-ness

Breaking Down
As much as I try to hold it together, there are some days where it all falls apart. Take this morning for example. I had planned on going to the store to get some water for the baby's formula and doing laundry. I went to the key rack and there were no keys. I searched… Continue reading Breaking Down
Push
I was in labor delivering my baby girl and the time had come. After all of the contractions and waiting, it was time to push. My midwife yelled, "Push. Keep pushing." I pushed as hard and as long as I could. I was already so tired and this was the most exhausting part yet. I… Continue reading Push

You know what I think causes a lot of unnecessary pain and suffering? Wanting what we think we "should"want.

A day that will present you with new possibilities and new ideas. Breathe in deeply. Imagine this: Endless perseverance and… Continue reading Love Letter on Fresh Starts
Love Letters
Sometimes you have to go back to something that you loved doing and look at it with fresh eyes. New perspective. Remix things a bit. In 2014, I would post a status offering people the chance to get a love letter written just for them. This idea became quite popular and in October 2014 I… Continue reading Love Letters
What Chocolate Taught Me About Manifesting
I am currently pregnant, which means lots of cravings! A few weeks ago, I was craving chocolate. I daydreamed about brownies, ice cream, and other chocolate laden things. I didn't know quite when I would get some chocolate or in what form, but I knew it would be soon. Interestingly enough I got a pleasant… Continue reading What Chocolate Taught Me About Manifesting
