POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Something they don’t tell you enough about is that when you’re confronting your fears, you are literally creating new neurons to replicate new experiences and new understanding of previous ones.

You might not show it, just like you don’t see how much heat AI produces, but the energetic force that’s happening can be exhausting.

Sometimes, your brain will have weird little reactions in the middle of it. Because of course it will! It’s working hard, and while its focus is on reprogramming, small things - that you’d otherwise be able to hold differently - may pop up. Confusion, short term memory loss(often confused with “not listening”), anxiety, nausea, etc;

I like to describe it like my brain is clicking on and off. And every time it turns back on, I’m more present, grounded, and joyful.

And that click off process sometimes may go unnoticeable to others. It may appear like I’m confused, or ignoring, or stressed, or even mad.

This is mostly because we don’t spend enough time talking and sharing what’s actually happening, but that’s a deeper issue that has to do with knowledge first.

Because how can anyone know what’s happening in their brain if they’ve never learned the language to speak about it?

Mental health knowledge is so unbelievably important to our own sense of self. The brain is literally the powerhouse that controls our experience! 🧠

This video was a perfect example of when I had suddenly really grounded myself, looked around and saw how I was dancing in the middle of a crowd with clowns (which I’ve been deeply afraid of my whole life).

For a moment, I was soaking it in. And in that process of soaking it in to re program my brain not to fear all clowns or crowds, I forgot the task at hand, to drop it low.

It’s a silly small moment. But those are the moments that matter the most.

Unbelievably grateful for these solo shots, making me feel dreamy. 🥰

Okay my content recently has been hyper focused on growth, acknowledgment, and my own personal stories. But these photos from @legendofsachi at the @paravelleball Rococo-Themed picnic we did months ago make me feel so blessed to be surrounded by so many talented souls.

A part of growth is acknowledging that even with bumps in the road, the journey isn’t done yet. Plenty of dreamy, exciting, joyful, and loving days to come 🥰

It makes me sad to see how many people can’t grasp the depth that happiness can lead to, the point where happiness evolves in to joy.

Where the depth of the pain you once felt that left a ringing void of black, is now met with the blinding light of a joy just as strong as the despair once was.

And the ways in which you can lean in to that.

I think people lose sight of their flame of hope.

They think being soft is weak, therefore never granting them true safety in softness.

They think being kind is fake, thus never allowing the blanket of warmth true kindness brings.

They ignore the beauties of everyday moments, because the darkness of past traumas cloud their ability to see how precious each moment truly is.

As if happiness is shallow.

And shallow is bad.

I think people forgot, you’re supposed to find depth in happiness too.

A little over a year ago I traveled to a place that has captivated me, culturally, since I was a child.

Japanese culture has influenced my interests for decades, and this was a dream trip.

What a weird and amazing time💖

I’ve spent so much time grieving the way our world is.

Animals and people are treated like objects to use, exploit, and discard. Food and water are treated as rights by governments and luxuries by the people who need them. And somehow, we keep looking away.

People take jobs that support causes they claim to oppose because they need a paycheck. Because food, water, healthcare, and a safe place to sleep have become things we’re expected to earn rather than things human beings deserve.

Federal and state policies deny help to the people who need it most unless they fit into narrowly defined brackets—while simultaneously making those brackets increasingly impossible to reach.

Money has become the thing so many people are forced to wake up and chase, while the creatures of this earth suffer under systems and laws that prioritize profit over life.

And somehow, we still have people arguing that laws determine who is inherently deserving of dignity, freedom, safety, or belonging.

We have become so disconnected from one another that people will watch a video online, share a post, and convince themselves they’ve done their part.

Watching isn’t fighting.
Sharing isn’t organizing.
Awareness isn’t enough.

MARCH.
PROTEST.
MAKE CONTENT THAT EDUCATES AND MOBILIZES.
SIGN PETITIONS.
CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES.
SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS DOING THE WORK.
BUILD COMMUNITY RESOURCE CENTERS.
FEED PEOPLE.
PROTECT ANIMALS.
HELP YOUR NEIGHBORS.
ORGANIZE.
DONATE TO NON PROFITS FIGHTING BACK.

Please. PLEASE. Fight back.

Because the wounds we allow to deepen today will become the conditions we are forced to live with tomorrow.

We cannot keep waiting for someone else to fix this.

We cannot keep choosing comfort because action is inconvenient.

We cannot keep watching suffering through a screen and calling that resistance.

FIGHT. BACK.

Still processing everything from Saturday.

We’re exhausted, emotional, and incredibly grateful.
Thank you to every single person who showed up, volunteered, donated, supported, shared our posts, sponsored the event, or simply spent time with us. Seeing our community come together for mental health, animal welfare, education, and connection meant more than we can put into words.

We had at least one animal adopted, got to hear amazing rescue organizations share about the work they do, and had so many meaningful conversations throughout the day. One person even told us they came because they saw one of our videos on Instagram - which honestly reminded us why sharing this journey matters.

Our biggest goal was to create a space where people could learn something, feel connected, and leave feeling inspired or supported. Hearing that people genuinely felt that made all the hard work worth it. And we could not have done it without @vicioussss who helped design the space to create the comfortable energy we were going for.

While we didn’t fully reach our fundraising goal of $5,000, we made it about halfway there in just over a month - and for a grassroots community effort, that’s something we’re deeply thankful for.

And this is the important part: Mana Grove was never meant to be just one event.

This is about building something lasting. A future where people can access ongoing support, healing spaces, animal-assisted care, education, and community resources that help people, and animals, lead healthier, more joyful lives.

If you believe in that vision, we hope you’ll continue following along as we grow.

Extra big shout out to all of our sponsors and partners that joined us to make this event happen:

No longer young for altars laid She is Cail’s debt, long delayed An Aisling forged in grief and loam
Your fellowship, to be unknown
When rain returns to cleanse this land And vines reclaim what gods have damned.

Where false prayers rang in hollow halls, The forest comes. The temple falls.
She’ll stand where sister’s blood was spilt And weigh your soul— In leaf and guilt.

This is an excerpt from a poem I’ve been scraping together for a submission I’m making as Brina of the Brite Stars (BrinaBrites), a character I created when I was 6 and have been playing since then, in my favorite game. It’s titled “Aisling of the Verdant Reckoning”

It wasn’t until I was reflecting on photos from this day that I realized I’d already created Itadoria (the Aisling from the prophecy) irl.

Hope it intrigued you to learn more😈

As a little girl, I used to run around for hours in Zelda playing as Link. Exploring the world as him, getting frustrated like I was him, learning what patience meant to him, learning what it meant to make sacrifices as him. So many characteristics.

RPG’s are silly that way. They put you in the feet and experience of another character.

You’re a witness and you’re in control in a world someone designed. It’s an interesting concept.

The power in an RPG is truly vast, and it’s nice to casually put a look together that channels that little girl laying in me, who’s still laying on the ground on her belly with a controller in her hand, exploring the world as Link.

Silly and “meaningless” moments and yet, undeniably profound.
