// Good morning 😌 I am breathing into the new y // Good morning 😌 I am breathing into the new year by releasing the tumultuous 2020. I wrote a letter to 2020, admitting I used 2020 as a scapegoat. I know it’s been dark for a lot of us, which has been deeply painful. Yet, through this darkness, I’ve discovered profound gratitude in discovering our impermanence, our potential to love, and the beauty of slowing down. So, I welcome you to read my cathartic letter on the blog, from my heart to yours. It’s an emotional release to dig deeper and find the meaning. Thank you for being here with me. I’m with you too 😘 Link in bio XOXO 🙏🏻❤️
// just looking to stay grounded to learn from my // just looking to stay grounded to learn from my past without judging myself for all i have seen. treating myself with kindness by breathing into the space within me, welcoming feelings of presence and love. these shadows do not consume me but instead blanket me with awareness, a new way of seeing; a way to connect to my truth. when i begin to snuggle up with this blanket of darkness, i can feel comforted rather than afraid; i welcome love instead of fear. i am always doing the best i can with what i have in this moment. i trust this moment to teach me to stay gentle and kind, even when it’s most challenging. 🙏🏻 have a beautiful day (: stay gentle and kind. your heart and mind are worthy. - feeling the creative juices flowing again and riding this wave 🌊 it’s been a challenging few weeks and i am connecting deeper to the things that are triggering me, releasing them as i learn from them. letting go as i ebb and flow with my emotions, wants, and needs. mediating. breathing. creating. being. doing yoga with #ywabreath daily. healing. welcoming my “no,” the tears, and breath as they cleanse me and help me connect deeper. xo kristen

// thank you, 2020🙏🏻 you have taught me so m // thank you, 2020🙏🏻 you have taught me so much • i wrote this poem & wanted to share because in my heart i really do care about all the things you have done in preparation for twenty-twenty-ONE! we’ve been through so many challenging times & one way i process is by creating these rhymes 🙃
// hello, 2021 🙂 welcome welcome! we have been wa // hello, 2021 🙂 welcome welcome! we have been waiting for you! here you are, yet not much has changed. my heart is still free and I’m finding my way. my values and intentions remain forever the same, for without my anchor, I would have nothing to gain. here is to another year of learning and growing in love and in spirit🥰 - 📸: @yalebabe55 during our epic cross-country road trip, somewhere between WA and NY. So grateful.
// trying to hold onto the magic that was never re // trying to hold onto the magic that was never really here i don’t know what i’m chasing, but it’s been a helluva year! searching for peace, comfort, and joy... no matter what i do, it takes extra effort to enjoy unfamiliar & confusing every moment can feel i know i’m not alone in asking: is 2020 fo’ real?! so as our hearts reach their limits and the unfamiliar persists, we tap into our resilience, believing discomfort + peace can coexist. my mind feels so frazzled as i begin unpacking this year with broken pieces around me - what has gotten us here? with the challenges i’ve met and the unknown future i face, may the universe & God allow me to continue with grace for i know i am capable of overcoming and growing i have done it once before despite not really knowing when the end of the road would meet my feet i just kept on walking - my heart knows no defeat! i believe together we will remain strong as we seek understanding of where we belong. so as another year comes to a close, may we find the peace inside and love that infinitely grows... 🌻🌧 xo, kristen p.s. yes, my unicorn ornament from @tallymarkprod / @anthropologie likes to eat macarons (:
