This happened today. I yelled I screamed I cried.

This happened today.
I yelled
I screamed
I cried. There’s 3 dragon’s hair there.
They had never had a haircut before.

I wake up on the last day of the year as exhausted

I wake up on the last day of the year as exhausted as I have felt on the worst days of 2020. Blame the 3 dragons affected by the full moon.
.
At the beginning of each year I choose a word for me, a word that will define my year. I had chosen “foundation” for 2020, it was going to be the year I was going to start building in a more thorough way. No more babies at my breast, my reno project basically complete.
And then...
If I could choose a word for this year it would be shattering.
.
This year broke me, it devastated me. It made me question absolutely every decision I had made to build the life I lead. It made my body revolt against itself. It made me cry and wail more than I had in years past. It made me numb in the most painful way. It made me feel more alone than I have ever felt.
.
It made the business I had built for the last few years come to a complete halt. It made me watch friends struggle, be far away, move countries without a huge goodbye. I didn’t see any of my family for the whole year.
.
I feel like I achieved nothing in this year from the worst annals of Dante’s imagination. I speak horribly to myself in my silence and sometimes out loud. Both @your_shop_girl, a friend the last few years and @thegoodseedto, a new found friend, tell me I’m wrong. I survived. My family survived. I moved houses. I planted a garden. And harvested. I read 48 books. I knit. I survived. I did 100 @onepeloton rides.
I also asked for a lot of help. My two oldest friends @rfl305 and @mneits knew about my shattering and held space for me.
@drlisawatsonnd helped me fix my body, @faymeling_acu healed me through her needles.
I am on the list to have the dog of my dreams in the year to come.
I have a kick ass new haircut by @derek_hannah (waiting patiently for a trim @bobandpaigesalon )
Enjoyed my first manicure in months like absolute luxury from @tipsnailbar
and everything, absolutely everything, with @ajswartz holding me together with patience and tenderness.This year shattered me. Absolutely and completely.
I am still catching my breath. Next year my word will be gentleness. That’s all. Softness and flow in the crazy that comes and goes. In the absolute uncertainty

Today I lit my first fire. Ever. It’s always see

Today I lit my first fire. Ever.
It’s always seemed like something important to learn but that just hadn’t made it into my life.
I gathered twigs. I gathered dry grass. I gathered sticks. I broke the sticks. We put them into piles and then started building.
.
My team, for I had a team, gathered even more sticks and twigs, dry grass to be use as kindling, dry twigs to be used as fuel to light it up.
.
I learnt you can’t use wet or green things that are alive. I learnt you can overcrowd a fire and shouldn’t.
I learnt a fire needs fuel.
It also needs to breathe.
.
It was exhilarating that this little fire came to life after we had built it. That it produced heat, and sound, smoke and smell.
It was a wonder.
.
I am learning a new language, one I didn’t even know I didn’t speak or understand, the language of being outside no matter the weather, the language of looking at leaves and the grass, of touching bark and trying to understand its patterns.
I am learning a new language thanks to @thepineproject and it is opening up a whole new world to me, as languages tend to do.
Connecting me to the world, to my child, to nature.
And I am grateful.
.
It is never too late in life to learn a new language, be it the the language of kindness, the language of empathy, the language of nature or the language of desire. You just need to find the right teachers.Stoke the fire. The internal and the external ..

Isn’t it wonderful to have periods celebrated?

Isn’t it wonderful to have periods celebrated?
I was so embarrassed by my period when it finally came. I was the latest in my small class, I was also the youngest, but I felt there was something wrong because it wouldn’t come.
When it did I didn’t even recognize it because it looked different than why I had envisioned with the very little knowledge I had.
.
The next 20 years were spent fighting it. Being annoyed by it. Feeling embarrassed by it. Feeing dirty when it came.
It wasn’t until I heard @theheavyflowpodcast by @amandalaird that a whole new world opened before my eyes.
My menstruation was a sign of health. It was also my sixth vital sign; I could know what was or wasn’t ok with my body according to my menstruation.
I started using a cup and period undies. I started to be proud of what my body can do.
Then @drlisawatsonnd explained to me what my particular periods meant and how I could heal my body by listening to my periods. It was magical.
.
Here’s for a next generation of menstruating people feeling proud of their bodies and knowing, really having the knowledge of their own physiology. 🩸

Today I asked for help. It’s not an easy thing f

Today I asked for help.
It’s not an easy thing for me to do so. I have been of the mind that I can do it all and more, all by myself.
If I couldn’t I wouldn’t be worthy. I wouldn’t be me. I would be a failure.
But I can’t.
I truly can’t.
No one can.
It’s so hard to say so.
.
I’ve been struggling with an aloneness I don’t even have the words to describe. In life, despite the wonderful partner and dragons I have. In life because I don’t feel any sense of community. In life because all of my family is a few borders away. In life because my words are shut down inside of me and are turning into a solid rock.
.
I’ve been struggling with an aloneness at work because I do it all and I am tired. I also know I can help so many and haven’t had the energy to reach out and say, hey, I’m here, I want to help you, please come..
.
I’ve been struggling with not even being able to plan a week ahead because there may or may not be another shutdown or who knows... perhaps more apocalypse is on the menu. Or sardines raining down from the sky. Or waking up to 56 rainbows all across the city. Anything goes.
.
Today I asked for help and reached out to wonderful people to say hey, I’m here, I can help, I’m sure you know of people I can help, can you please connect us?
.
It’s scary to ask a favor like that. It’s scary to say out in the world that you and your business need help.
And here we are.
.
It’s been a long fucking pandemic with no end in sight.

Today was a magical day. Today I did many difficul

Today was a magical day. Today I did many difficult things.
I learnt how to breathe because I have forgotten.
.
Isn’t it incredible how we’ve forgotten to do the most basic things for our survival?
.
My breath is shallow. It’s staggered. It is holding on to all the emotions I haven’t permitted myself in feeling. My breath knows.
I preach strength in vulnerability and yet I have continuous battles with myself, daily wars with the little patriarch that lives within me and tells me that to feel too much, to need help, to ask for help, to be broken and in need of healing, is weak.
I seek the strength in vulnerability.
I seek softness within myself.
.
Today I did very hard things.
I left the little dragons all day and took myself and my love to learn how to breathe in a magical place filled with nature and beautiful humans.
.
Today I did something really hard. I didn’t want to. My whole body said no even as I was doing it.
I put myself into this bathtub filled with ice water, and I breathed.
And it hurt. And I wanted to clench, but I let go, and I wanted to stand up, but I sat still.
And then, it was over, and I had done it. And after warming my body again, I went for a swim in this magical lake.
.
And then I hugged my love.
And we hugged and watched the sunset and felt grateful for days like these, for growth and connection and the privilege to give ourselves the space to be. To be without children. To be without pandemia. To be. To breathe.
.
I went to a workshop with the incredible @mayte_breathe_live , whom I only met a few days ago!
The stars aligned.
I met other fabulous humans I know will be in my life for a long time.
I am grateful for today.
(And grateful to @k_f1nn for introducing me to this sorceress is breath).

Today was a good day. I worked out. Dragons slept

Today was a good day.
I worked out.
Dragons slept in.
My body feels healthy.
I ate delicious food.
I played a lot.
I flew a kite.
I kissed my husband in the kitchen.
I rolled down a hill.
I kissed little hands and feet.
I ate a tomato from my garden.
I am so enthused by two new projects.
I cannot stop thinking of ways I can help a person who recently reached out to me.
I am so grateful they did.
I am so awed by their courage to write to me, to say they need help, to ask if I can help.
I am so honored they think I can.
I know I can.
.
There have been so many moments of doubt, in my life, in my career, in the world, in the last few months. I’m sure I’m not alone.
But when someone reaches out and says, hey, can we talk, can I work with you... it changes everything. It gives me a sense of purpose beyond my family, it gives me a sense of trust and appreciation because I know I am willing and able, but sometimes I forget how I can change the world little by little, person by person.
.
Are you wondering if I can help you?
Send me a DM, let’s chat.(And I continue to love love love my short hair by @derek_hannah from @bobandpaigesalon )

This is me, thinking about Desire. What is it that

This is me, thinking about Desire.
What is it that we want, with our core, with our innermost self?
What we want has changed, of course, in the last few months.
I want to be able to fly, safely, to where my family is, so I can hug and we can argue and we can smell each other.
Im sure you can relate.But let’s talk desire, sexual desire.
It’s intrinsic. It is raw. It is an inherent part of who you are and how you describe yourself, even if you’ve never thought about it.
It is a hunger that cannot be satiated because it continues to transform.
It is a hunger that when satiated, fills you to the brim of your own existence.
It is the particle of life that emerges from your groin. It is the electricity that emerges from your thought.
.
Tell me, what do you desire?

Do you ever have days in which you feel absolutely

Do you ever have days in which you feel absolutely and completely out of sorts?
It’s all the emotions
It’s none of the emotions
You want to do. All
You can barely move beyond yourself.
Nothing fits to describe where you are. What you are.
And then.
And then.
It is.
It simply is.
Or it isn’t.
And you make dinner.
And hope.
That in a little bit.
It will be different.
Or not.
Or you will be.#pandemicponderings

This is me with the shortest hair I’ve ever clad

This is me with the shortest hair I’ve ever clad.
Somehow the shorter hair made it look darker.
Somehow the shorter hair is hidding the whites that emerged since March like weeds needing to nestle in the anxiousness of the unknown.
The shorter hair is somehow hiding the days I didn’t want to get out of bed, but did. It’s also hiding how much joy I have found in the tiniest miracles, like growing my own tomatoes, or having a swallowtail choose my carrots to chomp on.
The short hair will take getting used to, like the masks, and the uncertainty.
The short hair is really good at disguising the tears as well as the laughter that has erupted without concealment.
The shortest hair in my life is helping me see beauty in me and outside.
I’ve shed the skins that grew during the quarantine. I’m not sure if I’m in a cocoon or if I’ve emerged yet, I’m still working that one out.I love this short hair.
Thank you @derek_hannah for helping me look beautiful#parentingincovid #covidmama #newhairnewme #pandemicparenting #eroticself #thisisme #womanemerging #transformation #metamorphosisinpandemic
