🐰🐰 Hello, December!

As we unravel the webs of meaning woven into our emotional habits, a sense of compassion for ourselves can naturally emerge, along with the insights this work reveals.

This past year I have compiled resources and hosting online discussion focused on emotional alchemy and synchronicity; within that practice, a deeper sense of compassion has emerged.

  • My ability to pause, to hold space [to breathe] in the midst of challenging (and triggering) circumstances has increased.

It is a great relief (and inspiration) to celebrate this Day One as I feel in (almost desperate) need of a starting point.

[Pause] ushers me to my sojourn with [circles], the guide word from the 2023 Kit for December, as I turn the kaleidoscope of my life to see how my life occurs in ever-widening circles.

  • This means I can peacefully hold space with the uncertainty of familial situations and of home repairs that continue to drag on (mingled with other stressful, lingering realities) along with the transitioning away from relational-conclusions from this past month. ♥

Braveheart, in the event you are in need of a pause, or experiencing thoughts of [begin behind] and wondering “if anyone else hits this wall [the wall of too much] …

  • The hard, unforgiving place of feeling crowded and tired and overwhelmed. Of knowing you simply cannot accomplish all that needs to be done…” —please remember that with “every step you are clearing a space, coming closer to a self you almost forgot you knew.” (Katrina Kenison)
  • This month’s download for my Ko-fi patrons ➡️➡️➡️ includes content, art ✂️📝 and prompts for 🔭💜 [noticing] and compassionately (and creatively) holding 💢 space to build personal awareness.

Art isn’t a result; it’s a journey. The challenge of our time is to find a journey worthy of your heart and your soul.

💛 Braveheart, dates and calendar 🗓️ years are not as relevant or memorable as personal 💞 anniversaries, seasons 💫 and celestial 🌌 cycles — particularly with regard to personal 🔭 perspective and 📊 progress, discovery, 🗣️expression and 📈♻️ growth.

🌐 These personal points of progress and development occur subtly within the ⏳ hours of our days and into weeks — and without 🙈🙉🧟‍♀️ notice — if we do not employ some type of chronicling.

🍀 This is why I am a right brain planner; my journal is my “planner” and it is sacred space 📿🔮📖🖌️ to connect with all the pieces 🧩 of me.

Thank you kindly for your presence here, Braveheart. 

I appreciate your interest and support.

~love & good wishes~
