Los Angeles, join me for a workshop to explore the physical world as a bridge to the metaphysical. We will be unpacking our external surroundings in order to become more in touch with our internal selves. Purchase your tickets with the link in my bio. Thank you to @kkco @kkcostudio for hosting us.

summer, washing me clean
I have felt that I'm “too much" my entire life.  I'm too intense.  Too passionate.  Too compassionate.  Too sensitive.  I wrote a sentence for my piece in Jane Magazine issue five that may best describe this: “I concealed my intensity in order to exist within a culture that champions aloofness.” What we don't accept, we repress. Acceptance is about receiving - receiving awareness, receiving presence, receiving truth.  When I don’t share my truth, I shut myself off from receiving.  And I am afraid of just that - truly receiving. We can look to our objects to help us to sit with ourselves.  They are the invitations to pause, to quiet the mind, and to get into the physical.  Simply touching an object while breathing into the body can bring enough awareness to access a wealth of internal wisdom.  I'm now working on receiving.  From others yes, but from my objects as well.  My practices right now revolve around receiving my feelings and emotions, so that I can allow them to surface.  The more I sit with my "too much-ness,” the less I feel that I’m too much, or not enough.  I'm not only allowing my feelings to express themselves, but I'm also separating them from my being, in order to set myself free.

Soft transformation.
Food (a different kind)
Finding comfort is a year-round task, not reserved just for cold months. Yet in the summer, we generally want to transform comfort into ease. Fluidity. Movement. Effortlessness. Life does not always give this to us; however, we can use our objects and surroundings intentionally, in order to pause and practice presence (with ease). Objects to practice with on the journal + a playlist for some summer fun (link in bio). 📷 by @nu_swim
