This week's joys 🦋

Published 11 days ago • 1 min read

Hi friend. How are you?

Popping in to share with you my simple joys this week (if you missed any, you can read them here):

The beautiful, deep purple orchids Max left on the counter for me before he left for OC.

The monarch and swallowtail butterflies fluttering around on our butterfly bush.

Evening and morning hikes with Patrick- discovering old mines, iridescent green dragonflies, and large cauliflower mushrooms growing at the base of old trees.

I hope you take some time this weekend to pause, notice, and allow yourself to enjoy the tiny little joys that come your way.

Another poem to share with you this week:

I hope you're at peace

with something in your

life, so you can draw

from that bright center,

that tenderly kept corner,

so you can use its medicine

to help a world longing to

know its own way of peace.

Inside each newsletter, I'll be sharing how I practically (and imperfectly) fit self-care into my real life. Like you, I don't always get it "right" (whatever that means) and I'm learning how to release the perfectionism and guilt along the way. My intention is that these newsletters give you gentle encouragement to stay rooted in your body, your values, and your vision- no matter what life throws at you.
