This is what Wednesday evenings at Discovery Green look like. 🌿

A stretch of green, a city skyline, and a whole lot of people making the space their own.

We’ll be back every Wednesday (until Nov 25!) for another Roll with the Flow at Hip Hop Yoga. 💜

🌿 Mindful Mondays 🌿

Neil Marcus was a disabled performance artist, actor, and writer whose work explored disability, creativity, and the experience of living in his body.

His words remind us that creativity isn’t limited to what we make. Sometimes it lives in how we adapt, problem-solve, move, communicate, and find our own way through the world.

💬 Where does creativity show up in your everyday life?

From the SWM archives: Sip & Paint 🎨

Remember when we spent an afternoon painting, catching up, and spending time together at @caribbean.creole.cofee? It's one of our favorite local spots, and a business we’re always happy to support. 💜

A little love for the familiar faces who keep coming back. 💜

One of our favorite things about Sit With Me is seeing the same people return event after event - not just to take part, but to become part of what makes these gatherings feel like ours.

To the SWM community members who keep making time for us: we’re so glad you’re here. 🌿

🗳️ A few moments from our Disability Voting Rights Week gathering!

We came together to talk about voting access, share resources, and spend some time with members of our community.

We hope everyone left knowing a little more about their voting rights, the accessible voting options available to them, and the importance of making their voice heard.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to RevUpTexas and Living Hope Wheelchair Association for bringing this event together with Sit With Me. 💜

🌿 Mindful Mondays 🌿

Pippin was a self-taught painter who lost the full use of his right arm during World War I. He adapted his technique by using his left arm to support his right hand, continuing to create despite physical challenges.

His quote is a beautiful reminder of mindful, intuitive creation—bypassing the critical mind and trusting the heart. Sometimes creativity begins when we let go of expectations, stop trying to get it right, and simply allow ourselves to respond to what feels natural.

This week's reflection invites us to make space for curiosity, intuition, and the imperfect process of creating.
💬 What helps you quiet your inner critic and trust your instincts?
🔁 Share this with someone who could use permission to create freely
🤍 Save this reflection for the next time you're overthinking a creative idea

#SitWithMe #MindfulMondays Mindful Mondays quote from Horace Pippin, "Pictures just come to my mind and I tell my heart to go ahead." by @sitwithme.tx
