I start the day with a big ball of anxiety in my chest. Like a clenched fist. It’s probably there all day, I just get used to it. Yesterday morning I noticed a super sunny window. I stopped and drank in that glorious sunshine. ... I imagined it pouring like water into the anxious sad hole in my chest. I felt my feet rooted into the ground. I thanked the thoughts that raced in my mind and then let them go. I breathed deep into my belly and chest. It took almost 10 minutes to fill my cup, but it completely transformed how I felt for the rest of the day. Was the anxiety 100% gone? No. But that warm glowing feeling wrapped it in a big comforting hug. I tried it again today, it worked again. New morning ritual has begun! Note: There is no reason for these feelings, I am extremely happy and grateful for my life. But anxiety needs no reason to exist. It just finds people and digs its heels in through good times and bad. Tune in, how do you feel this morning? Does anxiety have her ugly claws deep in your chest today? Yes? Take a sec and try this, and then tell me how you feel!! Or tell me what techniques you have to deal, I’m looking for more rituals throughout my day to manage it. #morningritual #sunshine #meditation #grounded

2020 wants you to know something: WHAT YOU DO, OR DON’T DO, MATTERS From your role in climate change, to your role in this pandemic, to your role in uplifting BIPOC voices and status, the choices you make in your life every single day freaking matter!... Let that sink in. It matters what you do when people are looking or not looking. Many people feel like a tiny piece of sand, like it doesn’t really matter what they do because they are so insignificant. But if this pandemic has taught us anything, it’s that the actions of one person can have a ripple effect larger that you could ever imagine. The action you take this year, this decade, will ripple into a tidal wave because we have all been asked to confront these massive issues at the same time. I guarantee that we won’t recognize our world in 10 years. And I hope you make soul aligned choices everyday because I’m raising a biracial child in the mess, and the choices YOU make WILL affect him. So, what are you going to do today? #climatechange #climateaction #environment #inspiration #blacklivesmatter #pandemic #covid19 #donate #care #fuckingdosomethingwithyourlife! Ok that last one isn’t a real hashtag

One of our favourite wedding photos, the photographer won an award for it I believe!

I realized that because of social isolation I have spent more time with this little guy in the past 8 weeks than I had in the previous 6 months. We are asked to work as if we don’t parent, and parent as if we don’t work. This time has shown me that we can have it all, but we’re going to have to demand it! Happy Mother’s Day beautiful women. I hope your day is full of love, and tantrums and joy and tears, and that you embrace your beautiful messy life. ... Xo Photo cred and much love to the rock that Elliot and I rely on everyday @dmatthe
