Manifest the reality you want.

Put energy and intention into something or someone today - especially yourself.

I got to do this energy session (spell work/meditation) for a friend the other day, and it gave me a lovely opportunity to really give voice to my intuition and trust what came out.

That was a big step for me, personally. I've never felt confident enough to whole heartedly agree to do something like this WITHOUT hesitation. But I do now. I trust what comes through in this like I trust the tarot cards and my hands in massage.

Find your intuition and use it for the benefit of yourself and others.

And, if interested, hit me up for a distanced energy session.

(Side note: I found the candles FASCINATING. Fire magic is so cool.) taken in Tacoma, Washington by @be_a_catalyst

In time

Where we watch ourselves grow;

Share and shed tears;

Gain friendships;

Lose ourselves to find our beginnings;

Take back our power.

Shared from fb land:
New year, new updates.

This has been a belated post - I'm not fond of the idea that people can know the happenings in my life at a glance; but at the same time, I live my life out loud so often.

I celebrate the good and while I don't like to focus of the less-dope aspects, I'm sure everyone who has been reading my posts has seen that I've been struggling lately.

This is me, sharing a deeply personal post, and I'm not looking for people to reach out to me in an obligatory message or comment. I appreciate the compassion I have been shown by everyone I have shared with personally - and I don't want to go over details constantly anymore.

So here you go: Sean and I are splitting up.
We can call it a divorce, though neither of us have looked at the paperwork yet.

He doesn't live at my house anymore, but he does work from here in a sense.

We are very good friends and are doing the best we can in coparenting. This is now a split household family, and that hasn't been a terrible shift.

But if you see me happy and smiling one minute and then deep in thought or tears at the corners of my eyes, this might be one of the reasons.

It had been a great run of 13 years.
But the end came and went.
So here I am, sharing what's happening
Because secrets suck
And vulnerability is where it's at.

These are events that are happening in my life, without so much emotion attached to them; but trust me, I’m fine and not at the same time.

It’s a lot to unpack, and here I am, with boxes and books and shelves and trinkets. Maybe it will be a cleaner landscape when I’m done? 🤷‍♀️
Or just a giant mess on the floor.

I feel like a mess right now, but hey - I'm OK with that. by @be_a_catalyst

Taking a little pride in my space.

After doing a 3 day juice cleanse, I went out and bought two more juices for breakfast and lunch.
Cray.

I have a lot more energy than I expected.
A deeper appreciation for the way food tastes.
I want a juicer. Yum!

But this unrelated picture is what happens when I'm looking at a corner of my house that I don't like. I switch things up.

I moved a plant that wasn't getting enough light.

I had a stack of blankets I refuse to put away because it is winter and I love blanket snuggles.

I have a random vase I need to put something in. 🤔🤔🤔

Decor is a side interest of mine, so I'm playing with my space. taken in Tacoma, Washington by @be_a_catalyst

Taking the time to tend to my money tree.

It's been with me for years.

I don't have a grew thumb, as much as I love plants.
Tending to them reflects how I tend to myself. I do a bunch in a few days and then forget for months on end.

But today?

Today I wiped off the dust, gave this tree a gentle shake to simulate the wind, and put it in the direct sun with fresh air.

I think I'm doing the equivalent in my life as well.

Sometimes we have to clean up, shake it off and go sunbathing. Or something. 🤷‍♀️

Tend to yourself as if you were the most precious gift and see how your world changes.

I'm working on that right now. by @be_a_catalyst

Sitting with my herbs and oils for the rest of the moon cycle.

Setting intention for my next batch of ritual oils.

Did you know I use these oils in my special case appointments? I used to use them in every session, but this amount of effort and intention hits better during special occasions.

Take home a bottle for your personal rituals from candle magic and anointing, to beauty charms and bath rituals - these oils add an amazing kick to personal routines and sacred rituals.

DM if you want an in on this next batch 😘

Custom ritual packages are still available upon request - but keep your eyes peeled for purchasing options in the future (looking at getting an online store, yall!)

Much love, digital fam 🤟 by @be_a_catalyst

What a weird holiday for me personally.

What a weird time in my life.

Christmas isn't about presents to me
it's about family and coming together.
It's about cherishing what matters most.
It's about a childlike wonder at the world around you - the small and big miracles.

And most importantly it's about sharing your love.

So what a weird holiday for me. In this time of my life.

She is the cutest 🥰

Sometimes we like to put on filters and play with videos and faces.

I love listening to get commentary on most filters. Kids have some of the most genuine expressions (especially if they feel safe around you).

This little love is absolutely free to be herself. We talk about how important it is to love ourselves and know who we truly are inside, and that can change moment to moment.

And sometimes? Is fun to play with silly filters and makeup and sounds and dancing and music and being a kid in general.

If you haven't met her before, this is my amazing daughter. She changes a lot of people's opinions on kids. She did for me. 🥰 taken in Tacoma, Washington by @be_a_catalyst

Can lead to a deeper, more full cup with which you can pour from.

All outward love does better when you have fully given yourself everything you need to feel loved.

This day needed flowers in my bath
Smelly candles
Hugs for myself
Salts in my bath
Lofi beats
Words of affirmation

I can now feel my romance coming back online - I don't know when I stopped engaging in it, honestly.

I was prepping my vases for new flowers, and could feel my heart swelling, thinking about all my friends and family who constantly lead me back to myself time after time.

Get you some of them - friends who can romance you and remind you how to romance your DAMN self.

Because your cup deserves to be full.
And no one is more appropriate to fill it beyond yourself.
Tell yourself you're worth it.

Take the time to listen to what your body actually wants.
Follow your heart.
Feel your feelings. by @be_a_catalyst

Here’s another account I rock for as a personal/body hype account.
I love this cosmic container I inhabit and I want you all to understand that THIS love is accessible to you as well.

Posted @withregram • @cosmic_soul_companion ❤︎~𝓟𝓻𝓪𝓬𝓽𝓲𝓬𝓮~❤︎

Like everything, even self love takes practice.

You can't make new habits that stick over night.

So here I am.
Holding myself.
Treating myself with care.
Knowing I need to show up for me.
Over and over again.

Even though I don't feel like I have time most often to create new habits or even take care of myself, I'm trying to make up for lost time.

I'm sorry I've abandoned you so often, body. You deserve better. So here I am.
Trying. by @be_a_catalyst

Gift tokens are in!

60min appointments are available as gifts to your loved ones.

This time slot is great for anyone who may be nervous to try a new healing modality; for anyone not sure what treatment would be best for them; for anyone needing assistance with chronic pain; or anyone looking for an integrated energy session.

Tokens are limited in number and I do require them at time of service. Reuse and recycle, people.

DM me for purchase

Happy to offer this option for the holidays and beyond! ❤️🙇‍♀️🥂
