Pocket full of Soul

Today offered a quiet pause I didn’t know I needed.
A photo taken mid-hug.
A symbol that carries more meaning than words can hold.

Not everything needs to be shared to be real.
Some things are simply acknowledged, felt, and carried forward.

People with ADHD and autism don’t just get tired.
Our nervous systems don’t register exhaustion as rest.
They register it as pressure, urgency, and failure.

Burnout doesn’t arrive quietly.
It feels like your body shutting down while your mind keeps pushing.

Rest can feel unsafe.
Stillness can trigger guilt.
Doing nothing can feel like falling behind.

So you keep going.
Even when simple tasks feel impossibly heavy.

This isn’t laziness.
It isn’t a lack of motivation.
It’s a nervous system that learned survival through effort and hypervigilance.

When burnout hits, capacity shrinks.
Patience thins.
Everything feels like too much.

That doesn’t mean you’re broken.
It means your system has been in overdrive for too long.

You’re not failing at life.
You’re responding exactly how a nervous system does when it needs safety and rest.

Fitness check-in, honestly.

I haven’t trained properly in about 10 days.
Not because I’m done. Not because I’ve “fallen off”.
Just school holidays, home reset, and choosing a slower pace for a minute.

The gym didn’t disappear.
My body didn’t forget how to move.
And long-term fitness doesn’t collapse when routine pauses.

This bag’s still here.
Waiting, not judging.

I’ll get back to it when it feels aligned.
And I’m good with that. ✨

TRAUMA SAYS: "I need to explain everything so they don't misunderstand me or get upset." HEALING SAYS: I will no longer explain myself out of fear.

How someone perceives my truth is a reflection of them. And if there's any misunderstanding, the RIGHT people will ask, not assume.

It's a shift in perspective, a paradigm change, a liberation from the chains of people-pleasing and approval-seeking.

It's recognizing that your worth isn't tied to someone else's understanding or validation. It's understanding that you don't owe anyone an explanation for your thoughts, feelings, or actions.

Healing says, "I trust myself, I trust my intentions, and I trust my boundaries." It says, "I will no longer justify, I will no longer defend, and I will no longer apologize for being me."

It's a declaration of freedom, a statement of self-love, and a testament to your growth. Keep shining your light, and let the right people ask, not assume.

GHD vibes ✨
I treated myself to a ghd duet blowdry (pricey and very much non-hubs-approved 🙄😂) BUT honestly, I feel so special about it 💖

I’ve always wanted little luxuries like this but never deemed myself worthy — not glamorous enough, not rich enough, not pretty enough, not successful enough… all the things. But no more! 🏝️

I’m forty-something, it’s as good as it’s ever been, and my motto? The best is yet to come 💟❣️

I’ve always been drawn to chakras.
Not in a textbook way. In a felt way.

Chakras, to me, are meeting points.
Where body, emotion, memory, nervous system and soul quietly overlap.

They show up in real life.
In exhaustion. In boundaries. In how safe we feel.
In how easily we speak our truth… or swallow it.

I’ve been working with chakras since completing my Reiki Masters in 2020, and the more I work with them, the more I see how practical they actually are.
Not woo for the sake of woo.
Just awareness. Energy. Presence.

This year, I feel called to come back to them slowly.
Root to crown. One layer at a time.
Not to fix anything. Just to listen.

And I’ll be sharing the vibe as I go ✨
