at the end of the day some of the people seem to be asking for wealth redistribution and the current administration and wealth hoarders hear that and have a large portion of the people believing that would be a BAD thing and is distracting them with a threat that isn’t nearly as severe as poverty

i really love whales and there is an i love type of whales sort of page on Instagram that is a little unhinged but it fuels me

what is the collective effort we in the wellness and development community are working towards? considering and understanding the stakes of where we are in the US - are we moving towards our intention as effectively as we can, integrating the most up to date understanding of our human experience?

if James Talarico wins i feel it’s going to be massive for the political climate in the US

i love to see so many people in the wellness community - movement instructors, breath work facilitators, plant medicine & psychedelic guides, bodyworkers, meditation guides and teachers, workshop hosts, music producers, apprentices, students, and so many others.

it’s just i noticed that i (+ the people i’ve been spending time with lately) are on a journey that we are moulding/shaping/organizing/creating on purpose and some people are not. Some people are moving in the same patterns as we have in the US for a MINUTE and I wonder if they realize it?

going to therapy has really helped me to see the inherited patterns in my life

sometimes i feel like i would like to have a child but the things that would need to be in place FIRST feel largely unattainable (at the present moment)

social media neuroscience (especially around “manifestation”) places such emphasis on the reticular activating system as the “gatekeeper of consciousness” and the more i learn, the more i understand that the thalamus is deeply involved in being the gatekeeper they are referring to

as i grow and learn and evolve so do my values

“is it ‘don’t tread on me’ or ‘comply’?”

thinking about coaching like facilitating conditions for adaptive neural reorganization made me realize the training that really has to be involved in order for me to feel comfortable in that role

i feel like the “spiritual awakening” to life coach pipeline exists because all of a sudden you realize you want to help (what i realized though is that a 6 month program was grossly insufficient to deal with the real world challenges i could possibly face)

i haven’t been posting my opinions on social media because i don’t want to just contribute my take for the sake of contributing my take there’s something else i’m seeking although i haven’t quite discovered what it is yet…

going to be thinking about the new Dracula film for the rest of my life

titled Café, created in 1925 by the Danish artist Gerda Wegener.

off to see Dracula again bc i neeeeed to feel that yearning in my body #filmsky

I MAY NOT BE BORICUA PERO THE LATÍN PRIDE IS PRIDING

having nervous system informed friendships is the best

what the actual fuck did I just watch in that investment commercial where in elementary school age children are talking about investing in the future what you’re telling me is that in order for them to have the American dream collectively they have to start investing at six and seven years of age

waiting for a man that looks at me the way Count Dracul looked at his wife while his men prepped him for battle

i am honestly amazed by all the thirty somethings that seem to really have life figured out

ok but y is spackling kind of fun?

Decades after Jane Jacobs wrote about the importance of everyday street life, urban research continues to support her insights. Studies on familiar strangers show that simply recognizing the same people in public spaces helps build comfort, trust, and a sense of belonging.

my potato chip and i … i was going to say “against” the world but it’s more like my potato chip and i WITH the world

45 mins on the stairmaster 🌸

part of my reason for doing what i’m doing (prioritizing my overall health and well-being, which includes things like joy and rest) is for my mom and my grandma because i can feel their stress in my body so i’m doing it for all of us

having a phantom of the opera moment

sometimes it feels like at the end of the day we just gotta give all our hearts a lil breaky break aka slow our collective heart rate down - which we are biologically and cognitively capable of doing (context-dependent) #thefuture

operation get my deposit back commence 🫡😩😢

one thing I’m learning from my apprenticeship is that a lot of the neuroscience i see in social media is usually only partially correct and largely over extended and I’m not saying I’m surprised at that just mostly surprised at the conviction with which it is shared

Go with the flow

the thing i love most about moving is the downsizing ✨ being raised by pack rats i am RUTHLESS

the chivalry on the LA buses is not lost on me

i want them to play the Overture from the Phantom of the Opera at my funeral with a live organ

had a breakthrough session with my coach and mentor today ✨ i <3 being apprentice

saw a clip of Ted Cruz asking someone during a session if they were on stolen land and their responses absolutely sent me to the point i had to let that part of me rage and scream and cry and smash things before i could move on with my day

so thankful my therapist is trauma informed and well studied in Internal Family Systems (parts work), Interpersonal Neurobiology, and Somatics 🫶🏻 great session today

the company i work for is full of unicorns and i used say “even though it’s not the dream” and continue to talk about still being grateful and blessed but lowkey feeling grateful and blessed about my way to earn a living IS part of the dream so ✨

Slime mold, Trichia decipiens in front of bright green #moss. NWT, Canada. #myxomycete #fungifriends The slime mold is about 0.5cm high.

had like a “download” or something this morning of a screenplay and i’m not a filmmaker so i’m still mulling over what to do with it 😅

being extra intentional lately so my days don’t blur together “slow is fast”

packing for the move! a mile away for a bigger space the kitties will be so happy
