when you don't feel like doing anything

in this episode, I unpack the feeling of not wanting to do anything and how to respond to it. much of the time, we try to ignore this feeling and keep it moving. however, it's very likely that we feel this way because our minds and bodies are trying to tell us that we need rest, or maybe a burnout is approaching. this episode discusses the importance of deep, mindful rest, both when you don't feel like doing anything, and just in your everyday life. hope you enjoy, sending love <3

Guided Journaling for the New Year 3/3

In honor of the new year coming up, I thought it would be a good idea for us to do some reflecting on 2021.

Taking Things Objectively

Happy Saturday! A major theme in my life lately has been taking my challenges on a daily basis for face value without always making them mean something about me.

Hope y'all enjoy! Sending love <33
