Some days, finding a moment of stillness means coming home and sitting down on the walkway to your front door before you let anyone know you're home. :) May you find small places to sit that bring you joy. 💕

Big love to all the courageous humans I am lucky to share time with on the mat and off.

The root of the word courage is cor – the Latin word for heart. In one of its earliest forms, the word courage had a very different definition than it does today. Courage originally meant "To speak one's mind by telling all one's heart."

Over time, this definition has changed, and today, courage is more synonymous with being heroic. Heroics is important and we certainly need heroes, but I think we've lost touch with the idea that speaking honestly and openly about who we are, about what we're feeling, and about our experiences (good and bad) is the definition of courage.

Heroics is often about putting our life on the line. Ordinary courage is about putting our vulnerability on the line. In today's world that's pretty extraordinary.

Fall garden work, is some of my favorite work. I spent the morning gathering herbs from my garden for herbal incense bundles.
Lavender, garden sage, lemon balm, and Rosemary.
Smells so lovely in the house right now. ❤️

One of my favourite sleepy Saturday lunches. Steel cut oats cooked in the instant pot with apples and cinnamon... I recieved an instant pot for Christmas and I love it!! Mostly for cooking steel cut oats! Seriously cooks the oats and the apples perfectly everytime! Then it keeps it warm for when the rest of the family feels like getting out of bed to eat!! To finish, i top with honey, coconut oil, bananas and h**p seeds. ❤️..
Steel cut oats are a good source of fiber, as well as excellent sources of vitamin B-6, iron, vitamin A, niacin, folate, riboflavin, phosphorus, calcium and magnesium.
yummy and so good for you!

I'm always looking for new yummy topping ideas.. Whats your favorite way to eat oats?! ❤️ **pseed

"When we ignore difficult emotions, they end up controlling us. Here's how embracing emotional agility allows us to deal with the world as it is."
"The conventional view of emotions as good or bad, positive or negative, is rigid. And rigidity in the face of complexity is toxic."
