Mindfulness and Disappointment
Most folks share the overtly positive sides of mindfulness without talking much about the internal conversations and work necessary to be in practice. Today, I wanted to share a bit about how I keep things practical; namely the internal reflection and checks I do to ensure I’m allowing space for a negative reaction but not…

37, The Year of Yes
37 was the year of “enthusiastic yes” (shout out to Pleasure Activism) But – How did we get there? Because to know me is to know that my favorite word and sentence is: “No”.

Day 3.
Unpolished rumination on Saturnians, particularly Capricorn placements.
