Lick up all the life you can today! It’s delicious 😋

Get some sweetness today! Hug a dog! Maybe a friend, too. 🦋

You know that book "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff?" Yeah, well that's good. But even better... is when you can actually not sweat the crazy hard stuff that of course sometimes happens! It's totally possible. Just breathe, then ask yourself if it ever helped - being stressed or freaking out about something. If you can recall... it didn't actually ever help. 🌟🙏🌟

THE JOY OF SORROW

It's simple.
When you're sad, just feel sad.
Don't try to be happy. Trying is exhausting.
Don't push your sadness away.
Don't numb it.
Don't try to get over it.
Don't try to transform it.
Don't even try to 'heal' it.

You don't even need to accept it.
Realise that it's already accepted.
There is already enough room for sadness in the hugeness of your being.
You are the sky, the sadness is only passing weather.
You are vast; sadness is temporary.
You are eternal; sadness longs for a home.

It's simple.
When you are sad, just feel sad.

Bow to your sadness.
Honour it.
Let it rest, and move.
And you will know its holiness.

Its aliveness. Its joy.

- Jeff Foster

GET OVER IT!

Please, friend, do not try to ‘get over’ anything or anyone. You’ll only be splitting off from a part of yourself that needs kind attention.

Don’t attempt to ‘move on’ today from your grief, your sorrow, your confusion, the empty feeling inside. Feel these friends totally, allow these sacred and misunderstood energies to move through you. They are not ‘negative’, they are not ‘bad’, they are not signs of your failure or weakness or brokenness, they are only parts of consciousness, fragments of the whole, that want to be felt deeply. They have come to cleanse and to enliven, not to punish. Stop pushing them away and feel their raw unbridled power as they surge through today.

Healing is not a destination, it is your willingness to love all of yourself, to take all of life – the joy and the sorrow of it – into your vast heart.

To walk with courage into the fire of the Unknown!
