Kindness, love, peace… let it begin with us ✨✨❤️☮️

Day 19 of my advent.

Peace, love and goodwill.

That’s it. That’s all. Just whisper peace when you feel the mercury rising and radiate calm into every cell of your being.

It radiates, it ripples, it helps 💛

This will pass...but be gentle and kind to yourself.

For some, the shorter days and colder temperatures can bring on symptoms of a type of depression. Learn more about seasonal affective disorder (SAD) and how to get help if you’re experiencing symptoms this season: samhsa.gov/mental-health/seasonal-affective-disorder

Take the photo but be sure you’re in it too!!!❤️

Day 17 of my advent…

Each day I’m torn between two or three messages but this is the one that won today’s tussle.

It is so easy to be completely photographically absent from the whole thing when you’re busy - but really you must stop and allow the memory to be felt but also to be captured.

Our brains cannot keep it all but our camera rolls can… and our heart will be eternally grateful one day.

(And how we think we look is only an illusion in a moment of time, it will not matter a jot when viewed with eyes that seek love and remembering.)

This one is in Joy Chose You which is on sale today on Amazon ###x

Sacred and holy ✨🎄✨

I know you’re busy. Everyone is. Get some rest anyway.
It’s not a strategy for being more productive; it’s permission to be more present.

"Slow Down" 🎄

Quiet down…self reflections are the roots for your growth …☮️

Day 13 of my advent.

Simply put, it is winter. Do not expect your summer stamina. Rest and renew wherever you can. Take nutrients deep and sleep well. You are working hard beneath the surface. X
