I went from not really knowing how to feel my emotions, to exploring ways to connect with them, move with them, express them. From poetry, to meditation, writing songs, or just talking to my support system. And these are all incredible outlets, with a billion others that are so incredibly helpful!

But today, as I went to try putting what I was feeling into words, a realization came over me in the midst of frustration for feeling like I didn’t have the “right” words to express how I was feeling, and that was to just simply feel ❤️

The mind is so powerful and amazing in its ability to create stories, and it’s desire to want to make sense of things. But the feeling body has its own intelligence that wants to be heard, seen, and felt in its own ways too. Being present with the emotions is not always easy, but it’s a practice that I’m here for.

“I know that the tide is not an independent force, but merely the submission of the water to the movement of the moon in its orbit. And this orbit in its turn is subject to other orbits which are mightier far than it. And so the whole universe is held fast in the clinging grip of strong hands, the forces of Earth and Sun, planets, and comets, and galaxies, blindly erupting forces ceaselessly stirring in ripples of silence to the very depth of black space. Amos Oz

I think I’m being tasked with how much I’m willing trust all that is bigger than me, which is everything. Not to discount the power I hold, but to cease being blind to the illusion of control and allow life to happen. It’s scary to be the passenger. We’re taught to take control of the wheel and be the driver, but what if being driver this whole time meant something different? I’m practicing making conscious moves towards what i desire, while being even more conscious of what happens when I release the “how” and move with the power of the tides, the force of nature, the truth of who I am at my core, in my essence, and not in my mind. Cheers to breathing deeply into the uncertainty, with absolute certainty of the grip of strong hands and galaxies ☁️ 🌊 🌌

Oh yeah, and yaaall 🌙 💃

Being in a mass shooting drastically changed my life in ways that, although today marks 6 years, it is still something that shows up in my life in different ways on different days. This life is so precious, every single moment is a gift. It’s interesting too being grateful to be alive on this day, just as we closed out su***de prevention awareness month in September. There is so much to feel through this experience, so much to continue learning. Praying a little extra today for 58 angels, and keeping even if showing up strong sometimes meanings crying, processing, and allowing all emotions. 🧡💜 ***depreventionmonth ***deprevention ***depreventionawareness

Anxiety doesn’t always mean that something is a “no” or that something is “wrong.” Sometimes anxiety presents itself when we are stepping out of the comfort zone, or even sometimes when we’re really excited! Often times the mind makes up stories, or attempts to make sense of what’s going on by labeling and dedicating meaning to these big emotions and energies that are happening!

Ive struggled with so many types of anxieties, both the intense feelings in the body and convincing stories of the mind. Now when I have anxiety, I practice walking myself through with curiosity, non attachment, and release of judgement. Here to find my inner peace. Here to live out the authentic me. Here to just, be ☀️😊🕉️

Lately one of my favorite parts about the human experience has been writing! From song writing to journal prompts, there has been something so healing and opening about creating through writing!! ✍️ 📝

I also have been writing a lot in shadow work. I’m going through exercises in a book that really pushes you into those shadows to bring them to surface, to then feel and transmute them! 💥

As for the song writing, stay tuned. Album is complete, just putting some musicaaa to it 😊

For those on their healing journey, have grace with your wounds and what you are working on, have grace with your growth and this process. Just because you’re healing doesn’t mean you’re broken.
You are worthy, you are enough, and you are perfect just as you are, warrior 💛
