Today I talk about America's weird relationship with Lawns.

I want to challenge the perception that PRISTINE LAWNS are a measure of our SUCCESS.

I want to challenge the perception that our LAWNS  = our WORTH.

I want to challenge the perception that we need LAWNS to MAKE IT.

I want to challenge the perception that we should feel ashamed of having WILD LAWNS full of flowers like clovers, violets, and dandelions.

Let's reimagine what we can grow, and create more space for life and diversity.

Today I reflect on existing in a space between and how that has impacted my relationship to this world but also presented me with opportunities to support our evolution. From the space between I can build bridges and that is just what our world needs right now. More bridges.

I am called to share my story with the world, and there is something terrifying about naming myself for all to see.For so much of my life I feared that I would need to defend myself if I were to show my true self. So in an unconscious effort to keep myself safe, I held myself back from self identifying, I stayed small and I let others define me.

But this is no longer possible. 

The time has come for me to step more fully into my authentic self, and to be seen. (easier said than done haha)

I hope you enjoy.

If you feel called to work with me I have 2 coaching slots available. Please schedule a discovery call today!

I am called to share my story with the world, and there is something terrifying about naming myself for all to see. I find myself resisting and avoiding opportunities to share my authentic humanness with the world. 

For so much of my life I feared that I would need to defend myself if I were to show my true self. So in an unconscious effort to keep myself safe, I held myself back from self identifying, I stayed small and I let others define me.

But this is no longer possible. 

The time has come for me to step more fully into my authentic self, and to be seen. (easier said than done haha)

I was inspired by Hippolyta's "I Am" episode in Lovecraft Country. There is something very powerful about naming ourselves into existence. There is something very freeing about having space to be in our full power.

In an effort to be authentic and overcome my own fear of being seen, I am sharing this raw audio inspired by "I am who I say I am" that was recorded on my porch in New Orleans, LA on October 18, 2020. 

I hope you enjoy.

Present Moment Awareness is a practice of getting embodied that can help to manage feelings of overwhelm and anxiety by getting us out of our heads and into our bodies, and our felt sense of reality.

Often in this hyper productive society we are encouraged to always do but there is great power in getting still and tuning into our bodies. 

I believe that our bodies hold great wisdom and that that cosmic wisdom speaks to us through our felt sensations.

The more we can come into relationship with our present moment, and bring our awareness to our felt sense, the more we will understand the wisdom speaking to us through our bodies. From this place we can make decisions from a more spiritually aligned place.

Reiki has been a huge ally on my personal journey back into relationship with myself and my body. I would love to invite you to a Reiki For Self Healing workshop I am teaching on Sat. 3/6.

If you are feeling overwhelmed or hopeless or just need a brain break, then take 10 minutes for yourself today.

In this heart opening meditation we reconnect with ourselves and the earth to recharge and rejuvenate our energy.

Meditation is know to help decrease feelings of stress, overwhelm and anxiety by giving our nervous systems space to unwind, discharge, and rest. There is much medicine in stillness, and slowing down. Overwhelm wants us to rush a head, hopelessness wants us to do nothing but meditating is a simple & beautiful way to take our power back.

Every day we are given opportunities to choose love over fear. In a world saturated with fear, it is a revolutionary act to choose love in the face of fear. In a world full of constricted and closed hearts it is radical to choose to expand and open our hearts.

I hope you will take 10 minutes for yourself today.

You are worth it.
