Happy January & Happy 2021 - Quote of the Month ✊🏽✨ 
2020 is almost over & I want you to know I’m proud of you for making it this far 🎉 
2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣ has been an incredibly eye-opening year for many reasons! So much grief and loss experienced on an individual level as well as a collective. I often have trouble wrapping my mind around the fact that we’re all still going through the motions of a global pandemic 9 months later! This too shall pass. This whole experience has shaken us at our cores and caused many of us to re-evaluate the way we were living life. In 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣, I learned to prioritize: 🌟 Meditation & Manifesting 🌟 Going at my own pace 🌟 Investing in fruitful relationships 🌟 Managing finances 🌟 Taking time to pause & reflect 🌟 Believing that anything is possible What did you chose to prioritize this year?

Mental Health Glow Up Gem for the week: Connect with Your Inner Child 👶🏽💛 Yes! We all have a “baby us” residing within us - It’s the part of us that seeks validation, longs for acceptance and safety, and responds to triggers - among many other things ✨ Our inner child is that innocent part of us likely wounded in many ways: abandonment, guilt, trust, neglect, shame, etc. The more aware and attuned we are to our inner child, the better we become at re-parenting and repairing those wounds 💚 There are many guided meditations and books out there that can assist you with this work! Take it slow - and more preferably, work with a professional. This work is DEEP but oh so necessary to bringing you one step closer to your inner glow 🥰💫
