Do you ever feel guilty for wanting some "Me Time"? Yeah...me neither.
When it come so your career, home, bills, family and work-life balance, there is never enough time to just breath. Whether you are a mom, entrepreneur, barista, executive, or retiree; self-care is universal regardless of the phase of life you are in.
“There are a lot of moments in my life where I have a lot of care. I have a lot of things to think about and a lot of things that I’m managing and trying to navigate through. And then there are some moments when I feel free as fuck, and I feel completely weightless and at peace. Those are both the complexities of being a woman of color, and I celebrate both of those. They are both who I am and they need each other to exist.”
When we give ourselves permission to fall, to crumble and to rise, we start fires. Blazing trails towards new worlds bereft of the horrors that homogenize the one we inhabit. We alarm the oppressive forces that try to define our trauma and our healing. There is terror and risk to being absolutely still in the face of ignorance, discrimination and inequality but when we hold everything we believe in close to our hearts we come across the secret powers of solitude. Listen to your body, listen to your mind and listen to your spirit. Rise is the spark to a flame, an invitation to move with your pain, move with your joy and to validate every emotion that flows through your veins.
Love & Light
XOXO
