Perhaps
this is the first time
you’ve had to make sense
of loss.

Maybe,
you are
unfamiliar
with grief.

EARTH DAY PERFORMATIVE ACTIVISM// Expectations VS. Reality

About a month ago, when I knew Earth Day was coming I was super pumped. But the closer it got I started to feel mild dread.

LOVE//

And these things; the ways we hold on, grasp and tighten, are what get in the way of connection, compassion and love; with ourselves, with others, with our body or breath, and gratitude for beauty in the present moment.

HABITS// Make it Easy to Quit Single-use Plastics

Breaking habits is difficult, but it’s totally possible. A lot of the time it means getting really honest with yourself, accepting that you may need something specific to make a real change. The first step can be figuring out what’s best suited to who you are.

JUST KEEP SHOWING UP// Meeting Your Own Needs

Every day is an opportunity to show up. If we’re feeling off or tired, how do we deal with it? Can we practice self-compassion, take a breath and ask ourselves what we need today. What do we need in the moment?

COMPARISON// Zero Waste, Social Media, and Feeling Not Good Enough

If you’re into Zero Waste or just interested in being more ecofriendly, and you start looking around online, you can easily start to self-judge and notice all the things you’re not doing “right.”
