"We must be willing to let go of the life we've planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us." #josephcampbell I don't think, a year ago, I would have believed you if you'd told me about my life today. But now that it's here, it feels a bit like it's always been. I am grateful as ever for new friends and old, for new opportunities, building a community, learning and growth and healing. I am blessed beyond measure, and I am exhausted and excited and terrified, and I'm right where I'm supposed to be. 💚 #onward #movingforward #healing #buildingalife #thepathforward #gratitude #learnandgrow #community #whatsnext #rightwhereimsupposedtobe #pnw #evergreenstate #myneighborhoodisthebest

Be a dandelion. Set your roots deep, grounding, nurturing. Bloom bright like the sun, and then morph into tiny moon globes made of wishes and hope and growth and future. Grow like crazy, wherever you are. Each new day is a miracle, just like a dandelion blooming from the ruins. Just like you. #miraclesarereal #bloomwhereyoureplanted #dandelion #likeaphoenix #rise #recovery #healing #growth

"... But little by little, as you left their voices behind, the stars began to burn through the sheets of clouds, and there was a new voice which you slowly recognized as your own, that kept you company as you strode deeper and deeper into the world, determined to do the only thing you could do- determined to save the only life you could save." #maryoliver Even after almost two years of healing and recovering and seeing, I still sometimes don't know whose voice I'm hearing. And I still sometimes don't believe her, or feel strong or brave enough to speak her aloud. Am I afraid, or just afraid to speak my truth? It is my truth now, so why do I still fear the rejection, exile? Brave or stupid, only time will tell. 💚 #adultingishard #saveyourself #healing #truth #bebrave #vulnerable #whatdoessarahwant #growwhereyouareplanted #recovery #progressnotperfection #wabisabi #brokenbutbeautiful #poetry #wisewoman

"When you go out into the woods and you look at trees, you see all these different trees. And some of them are bent, and some are straight, and some of them are evergreens, and some of them are whatever. And you look at the tree and you allow it. You see why it is the way it is. You sort of understand that it didn't get enough light, and so it turned that way. And you don't get all emotional about it. You just allow it. You appreciate the tree. The minute you get near humans you lose all that. And you are constantly saying, "you're too this, or I'm too this." That judging mind comes in. And so I practice turning people into trees. Which means appreciating them just the way they are." #ramdass #wisdomofnature #allowit #letgo #acceptanceistheanswer #opengentleheartbigfuckingfence #pnw #treewisdom #bythesea

Mini adventure weekend starts now! See y'all Monday. 💚 #pnw #itswindy #spring #adventuremama #herewego #boymom #crazyhair

May we all find the Rio to our Cooper. 😁😼😽 #snugglecats #therapyanimals #becauseisayso #kitties #imsurroundedbyboys #cozy #wearetheluckiest #furbabies #theyregrowingonme #crazycatlady

That feeling when you get your kids through their dental appointments smoothly and without any cavities. #creeptastic #momhighfive #boymom #brushyoteeth

Also, I loved this so much I'm just gonna park it here to remind myself. By an artist named Liz Argill (www.thingswithout.com). #liveandlearn #spaceholder #howtobeafriend #humaning #knowwhatyouneed #healing #emotions

So much goodness going on friends! Working hard on my exciting new classes with the Align360 ladies here in my hometown. We're starting a couple of series next month. 5 weeks of either love for your hips, or deep relaxation in yoga nidra (or both! let me know if you need more info!). But also lots of progress in the healing and recovery layer as well. The y12sr training was awesome, and brought up some stuff for me that feels great to recognize. And then the grandpa angel at the hardware store today delivered the message that I'm doing ok with the motherhood. All you need is love, and more love, and rest, and love. 😊💚 Working on some writing/processing for all the things, hopefully the blog will be full of goodness soon too. But for now, my heart sure is. #healing #growth #gratitude #keepmovingforward #iamspring #recovery #sobersister #beherenow #breath #grateful #bloom #lightandlove #busymama #yogateacher

Oh hello spring. 💚 The sun was shining today and it was perfection. I slammed out all of my inside work so I could get my hands in the dirt. So needed. So nice. I love the work of gardening. You can see your progress so clearly, you can experience and sense how you've changed something. It feels so hopeful to plant things with the expectation that they will bring food or flowers or green to your space. So cozy. In other news, I can wear my son's boots now. When the f?&k did that happen!? 😲 #springtime #green #boymom #gardener #grounded #growth #miracles #dandelion #boots

Oh man, so much good shit to process for the next couple days. The main message I'm simmering in right now though is this; every one of us is whole, right now and always, we just have to cut away all the excess, all the bullshit, all the other, to get to the miracle that we already are. Like Michelangelo and the fucking David! Perfection. 💚🙏 #y12sr #recovery #yoga #truth #youareenough #youareloved #dothenextrightthing #onethingatatime #allthewayhome #onlyloveisreal #keepmovingforward #rightwhereimsupposedtobe #nikkimyersyoga #breathgoddess

Just a heads up. #moonphases #wearewater

Heyam dukham anagatam "Future suffering can be avoided." -yoga sutra 2:16 Thinking allot this weekend about healing, and being of service, and Dharma, and intergenerational trauma, and Truth, and love. So grateful for options. #recovery #healing #yogaeverydamnday #addiction #y12sr #dothenextrightthing #love #wholeness #samskara #solution #allthefeels #rainyday #layersuponlayers #begin #goingin #selfdiscovery #yogasutras

Just a reminder. Just for today. Just keep doing the next right thing. 💚 Also, if you discover in your self discovery that Mercury retrograde makes you feel like one of those bad dreams where you're trying to run in quicksand, note that. And then let it go, and keep moving forward. Sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly. #thewoowooisreal #keepmovingforward #dothenextrightthing #onethingatatime #heal #recovery #selfdiscovery #mindfulness #mariannewilliamson #acim #onlyloveisreal #letgo #dontfightthefeeling #mercuryretrograde

Easter candy carnage. Hope everyone had a lovely Sunday. Or an interesting one. Or a whatever you're into. I ate too much candy and need to go to sleep now to try and recover. 🤦 Grateful for family, and comfort, and having some words to give a big hearted kid who doesn't know yet what a miracle he is. #hoppyeaster #candycoma #gratitude #family #mommingishard #wecandohardthings #wearetheluckiest #feelingsarehard #beyourself

This busy Mama has been feeling in need of some grounding. After thinking about it for a few days, and trying a few guided meditations and a couple yoga flows for "grounding" it occurred to me, how about some actual ground!? Sometimes the best answers are the simplest. A short walk in the dirt was just what I needed. Short though, because then it started hailing. Oh spring, wherefore art thou? 💚 #grounding #literally #barefoot #selfcare #dirtyfeet #worthit #wildwoman #mountainmama #barefoot #rewilding #woowoo #Truth

Snuggling up in bed with a stack of books and some tea. Even though it's almost midnight. I mean, when else am I going to read all the things?! #bookworm #latenight #livingthedream #wearetheluckiest #booksaremyboyfriend
