Last night was rough. I had a WHOLE MOMENT! Maybe it was because my son’s b-day is coming up next month. Maybe it was because I’ve hardly had a moment to pause & be with my emotions. I was reminded that we don’t have to be strong all the time and there’s strength in softening especially when we carrying and holding a heavy load.

I’ve been learning to speak the language of AI—and honestly, it feels like a new form of storytelling. Here’s my latest Sora experiment: women on a brownstone stoop, sharing poetry, healing, and inner child wisdom. Even in the digital age, the real magic is still in the message: connection, healing, and heart.

Maybe it’s not tiredness — maybe it’s your body whispering that you’ve been holding too much for too long.

Your body remembers what your mind tries to move past. Emotional holding is how your nervous system protects you — until it feels safe to release. The first step isn’t to push harder… it’s to pause and listen.

This is your reminder: The pause isn’t weakness. It’s where your nervous system exhales.

Grieving moms be like “I needed this”… and it’s literally just simple practices to help you return to your body.

When grief lives inside your body, even the smallest moments can feel like a huge accomplishment.

☀️Stepping outside & feeling the sun warm your skin.

🧊 Plunging into cold water to wake your face — the ice grounding your nervous system and softening the fog of heaviness.

🫖 The warmth of tea curling through your hands, each sip caressing your body from the inside.

🧘🏻‍♀️ Laughter and movement shared in community.

🫁 The quiet rhythm of your own breath. It’s variability reassuring that you still have life.

These moments don’t erase the pain — they remind your body it’s safe to keep living inside it. ❤️‍🩹

To soften. To open. To be held by something bigger than the ache.

🌿 This is what my healing in real time looks like.

The body keeps the story, yes—
but it also holds the doorway home.
Every motion, every tremble, every sigh
is a prayer returning to the earth.

And in that sacred rhythm,
I remember—
grief is not who I am.
It’s what love becomes
when it’s learning to move again.

Grief doesn’t vanish when we “move on.”
Sometimes it circles back — softly, suddenly — asking for another moment of care. 💛

That’s called grief regression: when emotions, memories, or sensations resurface after a period of calm.

It’s not a setback — it’s a continuation.
A deeper round of healing.

Your body remembers what your mind may have tucked away.
So when those waves return…

pause.

Place your hand over your heart. Breathe.
You’re not starting over — you’re meeting yourself again, with more tenderness than before.

Each time you return to your healing, you’re actually expanding it.

💌 Save this for the days when old emotions rise again — and let me know in the comments:

Have you ever felt like grief came back “out of nowhere”?

As I cleared the garden this week, cutting back what can’t survive the cold, I didn’t realize how perfectly timed it was with the Harvest Moon rising tonight. 🌕✨

There’s something about this moon — it shines a light on both what we’ve grown and what we need to let go of. And as I gathered the dried stems and fallen leaves, I felt that lesson settle deep: not everything is meant to be carried forward.

This season is teaching me to honor the work, the growth, and the loss — and to release what I can’t control with a little more grace. 🍂

Just like the land, we’re allowed to rest, to clear, to trust that what’s meant for us will bloom again when the time is right. 🌾

He came like a silent storm,
naturally born in a squat next to my bed.
I felt him crowning quickly
my sister friend held me,
supporting me through the waves.
He came earth side quietly.
He didn’t cry yet was well and strong.
Perfectly designed, flesh of my flesh.
My whole body & mind shifted.
I died for him and was reborn.
This was an easy birth,
My first born broke & prepared me
So I was more ready.
We named him Hannibal,
claiming his power from such divine time.
His energy calm, disciplined
even still as he matures,
he opens the door now to the next level.
My young king, second born, turned 16 today.
His facial hair and base tone
remind me he’s not a boy anymore
but knows I will always be his mama.
I got his back through the thick of it
cuz that’s how I mother.
Yes I hover sometimes,
just enough to know he’s safe
and not losing his self in the beast state.
He’ll be driving soon.
Then graduating and so on.
I’m grateful, elated,
excited for the growth and his evolution.
I love to see my sons take their position,
Find & live their purpose.
I wonder who will he become
and at once, let it be as it may.
Faithful that he will be just fine.
And so will I ☺️.

Happy Solar Return Sun☀️

When family extends beyond bloodline
and growth is rooted in beautiful memories
inscribed in pix like this-
making us smile, laugh and reflect on

how sweet it has been
