Following up on my last post, when I told @eema.music about feeling like my heart caught an infection from being too open, we came up with the term "flσvє gαtєѕ" to describe an outpouring of love upon finally opening my untapped grief’s flood gates. I imagine those "flσvє gαtєѕ" looking something like this. And trust the unfolding. 🦋$

We’ve had the honor of welcoming:
✨ fiction writers
✨ poets
✨ watercolorers
✨ oil painters
✨ welders
✨ knitters
✨ statue makers
✨ pet portraitists
✨ vision boarders
✨ color-by-numberers

In short, creators of all kinds!

How it works:
1. Come with whatever supplies you have and/or projects you want to work on. Not sure? Amazing! You get to see what your soul wants to create and what comes through on the page.
2. Either @ilanaingber or I will guide you in a grounding activity: she typically goes for movement, while meditation is my jam. We switch off every week and will also share some creativity tips and tools.
3. Next, her or I will put on some tunes and start our dedicated work < 𝓅𝓁𝒶𝓎 time creating.
4. After, you can share what you’ve created or anything that’s coming up for you! We’ll witness and cheer you on (and know you don’t have share if you don’t want to).
5. PSA: I’ll most likely ask everyone to hold up their art at the end, so I can take a screenshot (proud mama bear 🐻 that I am - hence the photos you’ll see when you swipe - but you can always opt out).

Procrastinate much? I’m so guilty. 🙋🏼‍♀️

Naturally, when writing this piece for @teachable, I procrastinated (I mean, I had to, right? In the name of research...? 🤷🏼‍♀️😂).

Here’s a sneak peek at some of my tips (thank you, @teachable, for making me want to jump onboard the TikTok train 😍). Read the full article at the link in my bio to find out why (some forms of) procrastinating might be beneficial, plus what to do when it 𝒾𝓈 hindering you from sharing your gifts with the world.

While most people hope the groundhog doesn’t see his shadow (signifying an early spring), my new #GroundhogDay tradition is to face my own.

We’ll be doing some more #shadowwork in tonight’s virtual #writinggroup. Last week, we explored metaphors / archetypes that represent our dark sides, accepting them without judgement. Tonight, we’ll continue this exploration through meditation, along with new prompts and tips. Let’s go deep together - link to join is in my bio. 🖤
