a Misty Mindfulness Moment If you feel comfortable, go ahead and close your eyes.Let your body rest however it is—nothing to fix or force.Just… allow. Take a slow breath in through your nose…and exhale through your mouth.Again.Inhale gently…and exhale fully, letting a little tension go with the breath.One more time, slower this time…breathe in…and out. Let yourself arrive.Not just your body, but your awareness. You don’t need to be […]

a Misty Mindfulness Moment We’re going to take a few minutes just to be here.Not perfectly.Just present.Whatever that means for you today. You can close your eyes if that feels safe.Or just lower your gaze, blur the screen, or focus on something that doesn’t ask for much.There’s no right way to show up here.There’s just your way. Start by noticing:Are you holding your breath?Clenching something?Trying to hold yourself together […]

Let your body find some stillnessor gentle movement if that’s what it’s asking for. Let your breath be just as it is.Just notice […]
a Misty Mindfulness Moment Before we dive into the work part of our day, we’re going to take a few minutes to just arrive. Not as the version of us who has everything figured out, or who’s trying to keep it all together but just as we are right now. You don’t need to turn your camera off or on. You don’t even need to close your eyes if […]

a Misty Mindfulness Moment Let’s take a moment just to pause together.To let the pace of things soften.You don’t need to be anywhere else right now.Just here.Just in this moment, with yourself, and with this group. Go ahead and find whatever position helps you settle.Eyes open or closed—whatever feels right.Maybe let your shoulders drop a little.Maybe let your hands rest wherever they naturally want to. Let’s start with the […]
Not a lot of people know how to kiss. They think it’s just lip pressure and tongue choreography and some timer in their head going “okay now what.” But kissing is a whole language. A feeling. A pace. A frequency. A good kiss isn’t just about motion. It’s about meeting. Matching. Reading. Waiting. Breathing. Letting someone feel safe and seen with their face inches from yours. Not everyone knows […]

Your gut literally has its own nervous system. They call it the enteric nervous system, your “second brain.” It doesn’t just handle digestion, it’s talking to your other brain all the time. It makes most of your serotonin and a big chunk of your dopamine, so it literally shapes how you feel, think, and remember. So when your stomach knots up before a bad decision, or you feel nauseous […]
a Misty Mindfulness Moment
I think you are survivingsomething monumentaland somehow stillchoosing lovethrough all of it.
Nothing moves in true emptiness. Movement requires resistance. Emergence requires feedback. In water, that resistance is the water. In air, it’s thinner, so birds adapt differently… wings that push and catch the sky. In space, there’s “nothing,” so movement needs internal propulsion… you need to push off of yourself or use gravitational slingshots, exploiting the structure of other masses. Physically, emotionally, cognitively… if there’s no medium, no connection, no […]
What do we do when no one hears your callFrom the smallest whispers to the screaming wallsWhat do we do when peace isn’t freeBut built by lies because you won’t seeWhat do you do when suffering is usedTo keep you down and pretend the truthWhat do you do when happiness is greedAnd greed itself is made to beThe fog and muck that coats all loveAnd makes us indifferent and […]
I look at my hands and I still seeThe pain that it has held since I could seeI look at my eyes and I still findThe reflection of a strange, alien mindI look at my soul and I still feelAll the madness that went against idealsI look at my skin and I still wearAll the shame that they could not bearI look at my heart and I still pulseAll […]
I am the nothing that lives in your fearsI am the shame that lingers through the yearsI am the darkness that turns into blameI am the sorrow that forgets where to stayI am the emptiness that follows you wholeI am the suffering that keeps you coldI am the reckoning that keeps you freeI am the truth that made you turn from me I am forever when forever never stopsI […]
