Hello our dear friends and family,

We hope that you had a beautiful Valentine’s Day and enjoyed the long holiday weekend. Episode 3 of Choose Love Anyway will be out today on all platforms. This is an episode where we share how we move through days when accessing our tools feels hard or when we are faced with disappointment… We want to invite you into how we move through life moment to moment and find gentle ways to accept the reality we are in.

Dalia is feeling under the weather in this episode, so we move at our own pace and try to be honest with you, as we are both in a phase of life where pretending doesn’t feel as accessible anymore… We hope that you will hear something that feeds your soul today - and maybe send it to someone you love who you desire to talk about some of the ideas we cover in this episode with. (:

We have also been soaking up the joy that this piece has been showering over us as we’ve gotten to read and reread this work of art by Vidya that she released as a gift for Valentine’s Day. We shared an excerpt from her writing in our last episode and want to share the rest of the piece for you to read and enjoy too…We’re looking forward to hearing what this piece and the episode inspire in you.

Here is another little sneak peek into her gorgeous writing that feels fitting to share with this episode:

✨✨✨✨✨

“When you know this body will not last forever, you treat it more gently. Or you should. You feed it beautiful things. You let it rest when it asks. You stop punishing it for not being what it was ten years ago and start thanking it for everything it still does.

When you know this particular phase of life will pass, you stop rushing through it to get to the next one. You let yourself be where you are. You stop treating every stage as preparation for some better version coming later. Impermanence teaches presence. It teaches gratitude. It teaches us to stop saving our lives for later and start living them now.”

✨✨✨✨

Sending our love to you always,

Dalia and Dina <3
