LUCILLE IN THE SKY

Nesting

James and I have been hard at work getting everything ready for the baby. Cleaning, organizing, assembling furniture and installing beautiful new hardwood floors in the top floor of our house. The nesting instinct is real, and strong. Not sure which one of us it has hit harder…

On Sunday, I sat on the ground for seven hours, drinking seven teas and seven juices formulated to balance the seven energy centers in my body, from my roots to my crown. @Chakwave is so much more than a juice cleanse. It’s an intentional tune-up for the body, mind, and spirit inspired by the chakra system, herbalism, yogic philosophy, and the sacred feminine; a transformative experience of envisioning, practicing, creating, and sharing; a healing circle that leaves no room for small talk and no places for hiding. Nourished by 44 different plants from the earth (fruits, vegetables, leaves, roots, flowers), guided by a wise woman, and empowered by the camaraderie of other seekers—every person gathered momentum, remembering themselves and accelerating down their path. Chakwave has been around for a decade, only recently taking the form of a gorgeous color-coded book, pictured above alongside my favorite juice, ginger-pineapple-turmeric to balance the solar plexus, a spicy tonic that burns on the way down, stoking the fire in your belly, the certainty that yes, we can. #chakwave #sanfrancisco #chakra #juice #juicecleanse #herbalist #tea #retreat #selfcare #transformation #manifest #reset #naturesmedicine #january #intentions #anewearth

A lot like paradise. No resolutions or reservations needed. Family recommended.

I slept in my own bed for the first time in 15 nights and this morning I managed to make it to a 9 am class at a new (to me) yoga studio. When the instructor said “this might be the first down dog of the year for some of you,” it was true for me, and I felt a rush of gratitude for my body’s strength and flexibility. Afterwards, skin slick with sweat and clothes wet from the rain pouring over California, I drove home and slid into an aromatherapy salt bath. Usually I shower but the unusual rain had me craving more. I needed to soak, to quench my body’s thirst through every pore. I could hardly move afterwards. Then I went to Costco with my three kids. We navigated swiftly, with a little luck and a lot silliness. Despite my earlier zen and clear mind, I became irritated by their excessive playfulness. And I wished I could enjoy more things the way children do. Fearless, unfettered, and fully. #selfcare #clarity #yoga #practice #patience #zen #rain #winter #anewearth #lessonsfrommychildren #momlife #ohheymama #motherhoodrising #livethelittlethings

“Our ordinary mind always tries to persuade us that we are nothing but acorns and that our greatest happiness will be to become bigger, fatter, shinier acorns; but that is of interest only to pigs. Our faith gives us knowledge of something better: that we can become oak trees." ~ E. F. Schumacher

We hiked through Temescal Canyon and we somehow made it from Sunset Boulevard to Skull Rock. It felt like a pilgrimage in honor of my grandfather who must have done this hike hundreds of times.
