PSA: Body-Shaming is Played Out: Stop it.

I was watching a video on Twitter today and it made me think of this little public service announcement about our bodies and our health. I say this specifically for women, because women’s bodies endure a lot (childbirth being a main example). BODY-SHAMING IS PLAYED OUT AND IF YOU DO IT YOU’RE HORRIBLE. And let…

Happy Birthday.

Whitney, I bet the world would be stunned if you told them you didn’t think you’d make it to this day. But you did. This year you found out, you were flawed like hell. You’re not that great of a person, and you can’t make things perfect. You can’t control anything except your actions and…

It’s Best to Be Still and Don’t Speak

Sometimes, Sundays are just for sitting and staring. Today, my Sunday is representing a practice of the art of being still. Because I realized I move too fast; I speak too much. And sometimes it’s better to just move slower, be still and not speak as much. I do my best to practice as much…

Be Still. Don’t Speak.

Sometimes, Sundays are just for sitting and staring. Today, my Sunday is representing a practice of the art of being still. Because I realized I move too fast; I speak too much. And sometimes it’s better to just move slower, be still and not speak as much.

Self-Care Sunday: The Purge

Hello everyone! I’m back with another Self-Care Sunday tip for you all! This weeks self-care Sunday highlight is: purging! Since I’ve been sitting at home a lot more often than usual, and it looks like I will be for a little longer (smh lol), I’ve been taking a harder look at a lot of things…

Self-Care Sunday: Unplug to Stay Safe

Although things appear to have calmed down, the nation is still grieving. There are still parts of our souls that are still raw. Videos and incidents are coming up everyday of racial injustices that either were never talked about, not talked about enough, or just happened and now need to be talked about. Along with…

Self-Care Sunday: A Full-Circle Cleansing

Good morning everyone! Here I am with another post dedicated to increasing your self-care arsenal. Today, my highlight will be cleansing; mind, physical, body and spirit. Last week, I did a much needed and anticipated comprehensive self-care day. I started with my mind. I meditated for about 20 minutes. I sat in my meditation space…

Self-Care Sunday: Date Night – with Yourself!

So, as we know, Coronavirus, COVID-19, #DaRona, etc. has basically shifted everyone’s life and put a temporary hault on everyone’s plans to be out and about, and we’re all home bound and forced to find something to do with ourselves to stay uplifted and productive. For most of us, working from home, being an improv…

I Don’t Know How to Feel

I sat down at my computer yesterday, trying to formulate some words about how I feel. There’s so much criticism in a person’s silence about the current issues were facing; the murder of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor and countless others that have suffered the horrific an unjustified and untimely death. But, I want…

WTIO Bucket List

It’s happening. I’m going crazy in quarantine. Although things are starting to open up in phases, I can’t help but realize that a full opening of the world and the ability to do the things you once loved to do without worry may be far-fetched right now. Now that I’ve had all this spare time,…
