Such a beautiful post. Thank you. I too have been scared to unravel that Ive wound myself even tighter *sigh and life has become very restrictive in many ways. Your post has reminded me to exhale and to know that many of us are walking similar paths. Thank you for sharing the beautiful artwork too 💜

This post really touched my heart. ‘I’m not totally sure what I’m trying to do here’ seems to be my motto. I cannot plan anything right now due to family matters (I'm a carer). My first goal at the moment is to look after myself, because I cannot look after anyone else if I am not fit myself. I tend to forget this one a lot. My second is to hold my family close and do the best I can for them. The rest can fit around these two things. The one thing I know is that we will get through it.

This is so beautiful. I feel like we are all unraveling in some way. I am so glad that we are re-framing that concept.

I have been there. Reduced then stopped my workshops, my weekly newsletter, even partly my art. I started art journaling and writing just for me. It created space.

Also, I make a visionboard every year and it's amazing how it's such a creative, subconscious and wise exercise.

Good luck on your journey! Let the tiny magic do it's trick! 😘
