🌿 MINDFUL MONDAY 🪴
This week show your Nervous System 💙

✨ Your nervous system is the control center for your health. It influences pain levels, digestion, sleep, energy, immunity, and how well your body recovers from stress.

When it stays in a constant state of “on,” the body can’t fully heal or restore. Nervous system awareness helps create the conditions for better health — not by doing more, but by supporting safety, regulation, and rest.

👉🏼 Here are three simple ways to care for your nervous system this week:

1️⃣ Slow your exhale
Longer exhales signal safety to the body and help reduce stress hormones.

2️⃣ Choose supportive positions
Sit or lie in ways that reduce strain and allow muscles to soften.

3️⃣ Build in intentional pauses
Even 2–3 minutes of stillness can help your system reset and conserve energy.

Small moments of care add up. This is foundational wellness — and it’s an act of love.
💬 Where could you add a small pause into your day?

✨ Transformation Thursdays ✨

Transformation doesn’t always mean starting something new. But I’ve learned that it may mean refining what you decide to keep in your life. And this process, in itself, is transformative.

In my early 30s (2005?), I began to explore yoga and meditation in relation to my mental health. In 2013, yoga became my primary physical therapy after a car accident - the breath awareness and mindful movements helped my body - not to fully heal, but to reduce daily physical pain. Over time (the past ten years), I realized I couldn’t fully integrate the spiritual framework of yoga with my own faith based background…and more and more conflicts within me arose.

That realization led me to where I am today. I’ve retained the benefits of breathwork, mindful and gentle movement (mixed with periods of stillness and solitude) and other somatic practices — while releasing what no longer aligned. Today, my work is focused on nervous system regulation, supported rest, and care that feels both physically and spiritually grounded.

This isn’t yoga.
It’s somatic rest — and it’s changed everything.

🌕 Mindful Monday: February’s Full Snow Moon (A Grounded Perspective)

Tonight’s full moon is often called the Snow Moon — simply because February historically brings the heaviest snowfall in many regions. Not this year down in the valley, but definitely up in our local mountains, like Lhílheqey (Mountain Cheam).

From a scientific standpoint, the full moon doesn’t cause changes in our moods or behavior — but it can interact with our systems. For example:

🧠 Sleep & Light Exposure
The full moon reflects more light, which can slightly increase light exposure at night and affect melatonin production, making sleep feel lighter or more interrupted for some people.

🫁 Nervous System Load
When sleep quality dips — even subtly — the nervous system may feel more sensitive the following day. This can show up as lower patience, increased fatigue, or a sense of being “wired but tired.”

🧭 Awareness Bias
Humans are pattern-seeking by nature. When we expect the full moon to feel different, we’re more likely to notice changes we might otherwise overlook. Awareness doesn’t mean imagination — it just means attention.

✨ A Practical Takeaway for Today:
Instead of attributing how you feel to the moon itself, use this moment as a check-in point:
💙 How did you sleep?
💙 Does your body need more rest today?
💙 Would slower breathing or reduced stimulation help?

✨ Mindfulness doesn’t require belief — just observation and awareness.

If today calls for a little extra gentleness, that’s not cosmic. That’s physiology. 🤍

🔄 Transformation Thursday: What embodiment looks like when you live with chronic pain 😳

After a car accident in 2013, I was diagnosed with a chronic pain condition (fibromyalgia). What once lived at an 8/10 pain level is now a much more manageable 2 /10 — not because I “pushed through,” but because I learned to embody my own care. This is my personal story of transformation.

💛 Embodiment happens when our healing moves from our head into our nervous system, our choices, our decisions and our relationships.

Embodied care is how we breathe, how we move, how we rest, and how we pray — even on hard days. Healing doesn’t always mean the pain disappears. Sometimes it just means our body no longer feels like the enemy.

✨ If you’re also navigating chronic pain, an “invisible illness”, or a body that asks for tenderness — know that you are not alone. This is a space where you can learn to are embody resilience.

💛 Save this post for days when healing seems far away.

🌿 Wellness Wednesday 🌸

I think sometimes we forget that the true focus of wellness isn’t just something we DO — it’s about how we FEEL.

Im sure we’ve all, at some point, tried to add to our wellness by integrating someone else’s routine or by adding another recommended tip or trick, and then wonder why we feel so exhausted and overwhelmed. Maybe it’s because wellness isn’t meant to be another habit to master or another routine to perfect, but rather our ability to notice what our individual body is asking for — and to shift, evolve and respond with care.

✨ Mindful Mondays ✨
Awareness helps us understand that problems aren’t really problems, they are lessons….

When something feels heavy, inconvenient, or uncomfortable, our instinct is often to fix it, avoid it, numb it out or rush past it. But what if the real invitation isn’t to solve the moment, but to listen to it? 🤔

Every challenge carries information. It shows us where we’re out of alignment, what were attaching ourselves too heavily to, or when something inside us is asking for change. When we slow down enough to receive the lesson, we see the challenge turn into wisdom.

✨ What problem or lesson has been showing up for you lately?
