Life

blog

How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?

I feel like life is constantly reminding me that I need to live it. None of us get out alive, and we don’t die with our diplomas and trophies… none of that material sh*t matters. Love is what matters. True connection is what matters. Empathy and curiously are what matters. Life continues to remind me to look to love and kindness, because although we may not all have the same struggles, we do all have our own struggles.

Monday Morning

blog

May this week be full of random blessings and happiness that you didn’t expect.

May this week be smooth and peaceful, reminding us all how to live slower and be more present.

May this week bring you back to yourself, reminding you of your true power.

Happy Monday ✨

Sunday, February 2nd

blog

It’s 8:10am as I start this, and yesterday I was in bed at 6:15pm ready to sleep. I was not feeling 100% yesterday, I even threw up in the morning and took an afternoon nap. My husband had the stomach flu on Friday morning, so it makes sense that I would get it as well.

This morning I’m feeling good, just tired. You know how when you get too much sleep you just feel groggy? Yeah, well that is me currently. Technically we have family dinner at my husband’s parents’ house today, but google says that you can be for contagious days after you have the stomach flu. So I’m not sure that it’s the best idea to go.

Today I need to make our lunches for the week, and I also really want to use my juicer again to make some green juice and some lemon ginger shots. I wasn’t feeling great for the last half of last month either so I’ve been slacking on my health a little bit. I also want to get back to working out at least a few days a week, but not sure I’m exactly up for that today- I can at least do some stretching though.

Even though my February started off with me throwing up and still not feeling great, I still have hope that this month will be a good one. I’m not giving up on February yet… I mean, it’s only day two. Instead I am leaning into the affirmation I received in my inbox this morning from Moon Omens:

And so it is. ♥️

Cooking

blog

What’s your favorite thing to cook?

I am not a lover a cooking at this current phase in my life, but I can make some basic meals. I’d say my favorite thing to cook is an omelette, mainly because that is actually something I recently learned how to do successfully. Breakfast is definitely one of my favorite meals to cook, and sometimes I make my grandma’s recipe for homemade pancakes!

February

blog

May February bring peace and clarity to your life, and may you feel any darkness that’s been around you literally lift away.

May February bring healing and protection to your mental and physical wellbeing, and may you feel better than you have been.

May February bring abundance and luck to your life, and may you be grateful and present for it all.

May February be the reset you need, and may it bring you so much joy that you feel excited about the rest of the year.

Happy February 🤍✨

Prompt

blog

Name an attraction or town close to home that you still haven’t got around to visiting.

This right here will show you how paranoid I am. I refuse to actually answer this prompt because I don’t want anyone to figure out or know where I live LOL. Like I had an answer and I’m like anyone could google and figure out a close proximity to where I am. I’m not even known or important enough for anyone to want to do that, but this is how my brain operates.

I only answered it because I haven’t been getting any new prompts and I’m theorizing it’s because I haven’t answered a few, but also it could be just because it’s the end of the month!

Friday Feels (1-31-25)

blog

I’ve been purposely ignoring the news and the internet, and I am aware that is a privilege to be able to just turn it all off. My mental health deteriorates when I constantly focus on negativity and fear-based content, and lately that’s all the news seems to be (at least from what I am hearing from people around me).

People feel the need to watch the news to stay informed and society tells them they’re a bad citizen if they aren’t paying attention, but are we even getting correct information? How can one news channel have such different perspectives and views than the other? Where are just the facts and the resources?

This is why I don’t participate, and instead I am focusing on my own health and well-being. I can’t very well help anyone in this world if my own cup isn’t even full- and that’s a common problem I’m seeing. Everyone is stressed and scared, so they’re on a constant loop of scrolling and watching in the name of “being informed,” but it’s mentally exhausting and crippling everyone from actually being able to use a rational headspace to just pause and think.

Making yourself physically ill from consuming traumatic images and videos constantly is NOT helping the world or society. Scaring yourself into a panic attack or any impulsive decisions is NOT helping the world or society. Society may be pressuring you to consume, but remember who is benefiting from that. Fear sells, but love wins.

We need to pause and regroup back into love and light. Recognize the blessings and come together with compassion and curiosity. Open your mind and hearts to a new and better future, one where humans care for one another and we no longer equate money to power. I’m calling on the universe to show us that love truly does conquer all, and I am leaning into faith over fear.

Family Traditions

blog

Write about a few of your favorite family traditions.

Is it weird that I’ve avoided this post because it kinda makes me sad. I feel like there weren’t a lot of family traditions growing up in my family. Like we celebrated the holidays and I know for Christmas I could always open one gift on Christmas Eve, and I remember having Easter egg/basket hunts at my grandparents house, but other than that nothing comes to mind.

One tradition we currently have is getting together with our family to do a white elephant exchange every January as our late Christmas celebration! I do enjoy doing that, however this was likely the last year for the gift exchange, but we are still planning to all get together. Idk if we count a family girls trip every year as a tradition, but it has been happening for a few years now so I guess it is one!

Okay so I guess this prompt wasn’t that sad- and the good news is we can always make new traditions!
