Feeling so grateful to be surrounded by such strong women. Whether balancing careers, motherhood, staying home with their babies, or somehow managing it all at once — you continue to raise these children with love, strength, kindness, and confidence. Wishing all the incredible mamas a beautiful day full of appreciation, celebration, and all the love you deserve. 💐 Happy Mothers Day!

Dry canning food for long term storage

My lovely mother wrote out instructions for everyone <3

Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Clean and dry jars
Wash jars and lids and allow them to fully air-dry. No moisture should remain.
2. Add empty jars to preheated oven 225F for 30 minutes.
During last 5 min, add lids to oven.
3. Fill jars
Add dry food, leaving 1–1½ inches of headspace. (no Oxygen pouch yet)
Lightly bang bottom of jar on counter to rid air space within jar.
4. Return filled jars to oven for 90 minutes.

Transfer from oven to counter for about 5-10 minutes or until the jar is cool to touch.
5. Add oxygen absorber pouch (optional)
The Oxygen pouch can be added to the jar, after the 5-10 min, when contents have cooled a little bit.
Recommended for long-term storage, do not for sugar.
6. Place lid on jar with screw band.
7. Check the seal
The lid should be tight and slightly concave after a few hours.
Check to see if the lid makes noise when you push in.
If it pops then reseal with above process again. Most jars will seal over the hours.
8. Label and store
Write contents and sealed date. Store in a cool, dark, dry place.
Approximate Shelf Life:
• Rice / beans / pasta: about 20 years +
• Sugar and salt: Indefinite (no oxygen absorber needed)

✨ What if the echoes we share could become the roots that hold us together? 🌱💫

Community is not built on noise alone. It is formed through presence, through quiet likes ❤️, thoughtful comments 💬, and the way we show up for each other again and again 🌍. Every small act carries weight and every echo becomes part of something larger ✨.

Your voice matters here 🌿. Tap share 🔁 and let someone else feel the reminder that they are seen and valued 🌸.

The motive for 75% womens murders was their attempt to leave the Relationship!!!

Major Red Flags with a Man:
**Controlling Behavior
**Jealousy

These 2 relationship dynamics are not love!!! They are mistaken for love, but the motivation is to control and make the partner's life, smaller and smaller!

Modern Masculinity tackles the issue of men and their aborted emotional relationship with their mother. The interruption in the natural progression of developing emotional intelligence is derailed by trauma, abuse, and all sorts of other family issues. These boys grow up to be men who have never finished or completed the necessary, psychological steps of separating from their mother, peacefully and appropriately.

Unfortunately, unless these issues are addressed, these men are very dangerous as our perfect strangers. The problem is you live with this person who is dangerous. Consider this information and if it applies to you seek professional assistance.

See my book, Modern Masculinity-A Compassinate Guide Book to Mens Mental Health, @amazon or any book retailer. The book is a deep dive into healing the mother son relationship.

See @roli.equanimiti.me for the complete reel about this post.

Thank You
Dr Stephan

Read this twice? Your humility coupled with a life plan is a checkmate to despair and hopelessness.
One of the cornerstones of Modern Masculinity is Having Your own Life plan besides Your retirement account.

Acting quietly , seeking approval from within yourself is your superpower!! All dreams, achievements, and aspirations start within You !! Its only knowing yourself that a deep sense of fulfillment and peace of mind will ultimately emanate from within.

Arrogance , self righteousness, emotional insecurity and self-centeredness which is narcissism has to have approval from the outside world. These men will die on every level of their life if they don't get that validation that they so desperately need from themselves.
Checkmate your critical voice, shame and self loathing!! These three emotions can derail anyone's life at any moment.
The recourse is to know what you want and believe in the direction you're taking . You will know if you're off course by the feedback around you. You will also know it intuitively because the peacr of mind will come with it.
See my book. "Modern Masculinity" for more details about the journey of your life. The book is available at all online retailers and bookstores including @amazon

Source for the quote is unknown. It's not my quote, I want to live by it.
Thank You

Gentlemen we cant Cancel out our own nature to avoid the uncomfortableness of addressing ourselves? Masculinity is part and parcel to our existence and overall well being.

Women embrace the
sisterhood because of the value of being a woman!!

Gentlemen becoming Emotionally stable starts with being Emotionally honest with ourselves.

See my new book, Modern Masculinity, @amazon
Thank You 🙏

LOW SUGAR PLUM RASPBERRY JAM made with love with my momma. 🥰

Everyone go follow her she is the cutest. @themindfulmetaphysician

Plum week continues with this DEEEEELISH plum raspberry jam. ✨

It’s perfectly tart making it a phenom topping for toast, but I’m secretly dreaming of using it to make cookies. 🤫

HERE’S HOW WE DID IT:

8 cups chopped plums
2 cups raspberries
2.5 cups fruit juice or water
1/2 cup lemon juice
8 tablespoons low sugar pectin
4 cups sugar
16 8oz sterilized mason jars and lids

Add plums, raspberries, apple juice, lemon juice, and pectin to a large pot and bring to a boil.
Once you have a rapid boil that cannot be stopped by stirring, add in the sugar.
Return to a boil.
Then add to your sterilized jars, top with their sterilized lids - making sure to leave a “head”, and then add to a water bath and boil for 5 minutes.
Remove from the water and wait for the jars to seal.
ENJOY!

Homemade Kitchen Grease Soap 🫧🧼

Yes, you heard that right. KITCHEN GREASE.
🐖🐄🐓🐪

My mother and I have been making soap ever since I was a child and one of our favorite things to do is to save up leftover grease from the kitchen and use that as the fat.

*I keep my fat jars in the fridge so the fat doesn’t turn stinky and rancid.*

It’s like saving up vegetable and bone scraps to make homemade broth - you make something so valuable out of what someone else would’ve thrown away.

We ended up adding in tallow, shea, and mango butter just to meet the oil quantity we needed, but the majority of the oil was from our grease collection.

Benefits of homemade soap:
✨No harmful chemicals (phthalates, parabens, fragrance, and more) 💃
✨Plastic free 🌱
✨VERY budget friendly especially when you use kitchen grease (we made approximately 36 bars of soap for about $21!!) 💰
✨Easy on sensitive skin 👼🏻
✨Keeps unnecessary and valuable “waste” out of our landfills 🌎

Since the soap goes through a chemical process to fully break down the lye and turn the fat into soap we do have to let these cure for 6 weeks. In that time they will also harden.

Once the soap has cured we can then either use it in their unscented and raw form or melt it down to make different scent and exfoliating blends.

So stay tuned for PART TWO where we melt some down and make different varieties. 🧚🏻‍♀️🫧🧼

❇️ Happiness is a habit ❇️
💫
Happiness is a habit, like any other, but it is such an important one. It’s obviously a bit harder than it sounds, but if you look for the good in your days, things, people, you will find it. The opposite also holds true. Happiness is a habit - cultivate it 🙌🙌
