🔥5 Weird Things I’m Saying “YES” to Right Now

For the last several years there’s been a LOT of “no” floating around in the yoga, wellness, and spiritual circles. Some of it good…
some of it meh…
some of outright confusing…
and some judgy and borderline toxic.

While I’m not here to tell you what’s right for you, I AM here to show you other ways of being that you can try it on for yourself and maybe find a little more calm…
fun…
playfulness…
and freedom in the process🐺🙌

So here are 5 unconventional things I’m saying “YES” to right now that feel good in my mind, body, and divinely wild spirit.👇🏼

1️⃣ Yes to more FUN in all forms!
Whether it’s bright, fun, silly, bubbleicious colors, spontaneous trips, fireworks for no reason, ice cream, retro bangs, or even the way I’m assembling and marketing offers for you, I am saying YES to letting it be weird, fun, excentric, and ungodly colorful.

2️⃣ Playing with curated personas to explore and develop parts of my personality.
From dressing up and writing as Hunter S Thompson, to “trad” wife Father’s Day, or dark femme fatale, creating personas and pushing them to see what they do or don’t do has taken my writing, work, and life to a whole new level. Expect more on this soon 🚬🔥🌸

3️⃣ Naked or topless writing.
I don’t know how to say it, but there’s something inherently free, uncaged, powerful, and vulnerable that comes out when writing from that space…and I love tapping into it.

4️⃣ Letting myself hate gardening.
I fought it for so long. I wanted to like it. I still do it, but a little differently in a way that feels good for me. While we still have our weedy victory garden, I’m planting more native plants, flowers, and berry bushes in our yard. Not only will this transform our property into a mini garden of Eden, I love waking up and picking fruit in the forest like the good lord intended 😉🙌

5️⃣ Reading multiple books at one time.
I told myself I “couldn’t do it” forever - stick to one book for clarity and focus. Ya know what…eff that. Sometimes I want to get into the mind of a gonzo journalist, fight the man, AND study Zen at the same time 😉🔥🎯

🧨👇🏼 What weird stuff are you into right now?!

If you’re like me, there’s so many thoughts streaming in at all times.👇🏼🤦🏼‍♀️

There’s a never ending barrage of voices telling you how you should be, the right way to show up in the world, and the correct way to do it.

The pressure to perform, grab attention, or show up in the societally approved manner is so thick it’s almost touchable.

In a world where being seen as “silent” or “boring” is akin to a sin…
a modern day curse word of sorts,
it’s funny that I still crave it.

In fact, I’m insatiable for it…
my mind, body, spirit…
and every cell of my body longs to drink it in.

☕️(pauses and takes a sip of coffee)

Ya know, perhaps theres a war on “boredom” because “chaos is a ladder”

Chaos causes confusion.
In chaos there’s misdirection….
in chaos people are easy to control…
chaos serves a purpose.

The chaotic pace of media culture prevents us from seeing, observing, synthesizing, empathizing, and integrating what’s truly going on around us.

It prevents us from hearing and listening to our souls and seeing the same in others.
It prevents us from uniting.
It prevents us from seeing each other fully…
hell, it prevents us from seeing ourselves fully.

But it’s boredom…
silence…
and spaciousness where ideas, musings, messages on the wind, and whispers of the soul are given space to unravel and breathe.

Silence and slowness give the brain + body a chance to recover from the mental abuse of modern culture.

It’s a place where we can integrate our individual and collective trauma response from a life sentence inside a system designed to overwhelm and break the spirit.

No, silence isn’t the enemy…
and boredom isn’t a curse word.
It’s the simplest of medicine, but one of the hardest to access.

It’s the antidote to chaos….
but as a society we are addicted.

So today I encourage you to prioritize stillness internally and externally. Rebel against chaos and sit in silence, write, observe, or simply breathe and be.

Silence is medicine…
and in this wild, wild, world, silence is a rebellion.

Act accordingly and stay wild 🔥🐺

As a silent rebellion, I’m opening “The Void” 10 Day Mental Detox Challenge soon! Stay tuned!

When I don’t know what to write, I ask myself two simple questions: 👇🏼🐺🙏

1. If I could tell the world one thing today what would it be?
2. What does MY heart need to hear today?

Then no matter what I start writing - even if it seems that no words will come. If one question doesn’t spark an answer the other will...
every time.

Today the message is simple.

Keep on.
Keep on.
Keep on.
Keep on.
Keep on.

Keep on waking up. Keep on moving forward. Keep on looking to the horizon. Keep on showing up. Keep on doing the work. Keep on moving your body. Keep on listening to your heart. Keep on trying. Keep on standing back up. Keep on building bridges. Keep on having hard conversations. Keep on parenting. Keep on supporting yourself. Keep on being your greatest cheerleader. Keep on giving yourself grace. Keep on holding the vision. Keep on standing up for yourself. Keep on looking for sunshine. Keep on loving. Keep on believing in you.

Nobody said that life was going to be easy…
so when it’s not…
we just keep on.

From my heart to yours, across the miles 🙏🖤

👉🏼 If you needed to hear this message today, drop a 🖤emoji to let me know that we are both keepin’ on together today.

Recently I had a discussion about how most spiritual or yoga content is geared towards the coastal elites🤦🏼‍♀️👇🏼

How disconnected most of it is from the everyday, run of the mill, mommas…
the gritty Midwestern surviors…
the Northern mountain badasses…
the Western renegades…
and the Southern home grown hearts.

If you look on social media, it’s easy to see,
images of supernatural styled beauties with long legs…
bathed in sea salt and palm trees…
chanting “OM” while sipping green juice in Lululemon…
drenched in 24/7 Vitamin D.

👉🏼 Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with a good palm tree, but I gotta tell you, that brand of “spirituality” just isn’t for me 😉🌴

Give me the gritty…
give me the wanderers…
give me the dead of winter survivors.

Give me the corn-fed…
give me the broken Bible Belt…
give me the fresh coast.

Give me torn jeans, old sweatshirts, and baseball caps on a Friday night.

Give me a soul that understands the medicine of front porch swingin’…
and being barefoot in the kitchen.

Unwashed hair…
chipped nails…
a baby on the hip…
a tired sigh in the eye…
and a steamy cup of black coffee, just tryin’ to get by.

Give me those that Cosmo or Vogue have long forgot…
the untrendy…
the “deplorable”…
the unsung blue collared heros…
the gun slingin’ mommas…
the small business owners…
those who operate behind the scenes, making everything fit together and run.

Gimme the good girls longing to break free and roam…
give me those who lost God and are desperately searching for soul.

Give me the creatures of the forest…
the meadows…
the plains…
the mountains…
the dunes…
and the heartland.

Give me those who don’t fantasize about what’s trendy…
posed…
pretty…
or perfectly glam.

Give me those who understand the spiritual medicine of the dirt road struggle…
who marvel at the stars…
howl at the moon…
and don’t bow on demand 🐺🔥
