#maketimeforjoy

There’s so much pain, so much suffering that finds or makes its way in the world. Find your way to joy, make time for it, allow it, embrace it, express it. You deserve joy. Unearned, unmerited, amidst all life’s happenings. ✨ [image description: White writing on black background with sunflower edging that says, I think we are all wondering at some level “Is now an ok time to feel joy?” And I want you to know the answer is yes.

New month, new perspective. Last month was all about "new experiences". And while I will still be continuing to get in as many new experiences as possible, February will be focused on finding the moments of peace that keep me coming back for more! I recognized it yesterday as I was finishing my evening hike. We were up on the top of the ridgeline, the cool breeze was blowing against my face and I couldn't help but feel a huge rush of joy followed by a feeling of "why don't I do this more often?" It was a perfect evening to just stand there and watch the sunset (swipe to the end to see a photo that doesn't do it justice). So with that, today we went off into the park and added a loop we don't normally do, I went around and revisited memories of my past and took a moment to soak in why those redwood stumps are so magical. My childhood was spent climbing on them, playing in them, building forts in them, and today we went back to them! Here's to tomorrow and another moment of Joy. Also please enjoy our post run snuggle session. #rungirlrun #runningdog #runningismytherapy #runningbuddies #dogrunner #dogmom #runningdogmom #doitforyou #letsgorunning #dogbestfriend #runningmeditation #getoutside #findyourhappypace #whatsyourwhy #findyourjoy #consistency #changecomesfromconsistency #choosejoyeveryday #findjoy #maketimeforjoy #comebackformore #trailrunning #traildog #redwoods #samuelptaylorstatepark #runinthewoods #februarymiles #february2021 #februaryrunning #takeintheview (at Samuel P.

Be as gentle with yourself as possible. Speak as kindly to yourself as possible. Your emotions are valid and do not need some pretty bow. It’s ok if you’re angry, or hurting, or scared. It’s ok if what you’re carrying is heavy. You’re not alone. Give yourself grace. ✨ [image text: Not everyone is struggling under the weight of their experiences. But everyone I know is carrying something heavy. Give yourself time. Give others time.

I make room for my grief but also for my joy. I retweeted several responses from when I asked ppl to share pics of themselves genuinely laughing. Some said they went back 5 years to find pics, others had to go back to childhood pictures and said they haven’t genuinely been happy since. 😭 Please find ways to cultivate joy, even in small doses, noticing beauty where you can, taking a moment daily to focus on your senses and what you feel in your body. Start telling yourself you desire joy, you desire happiness, and laughter, and peace. Start speaking aloud the things you may not yet feel but want for yourself. Find a picture of yourself laughing and notice what you feel in your body. If you can’t find one, look at pics of others laughing. What comes to mind? What’s the story you tell yourself about it? ✨ [image descriptions: me, a Black woman, genuinely laughing, wearing a bright pink head wrap and feathers printed dress with bright colors (pink, blue, yellow) end image description.] ✨ #cultivatejoy #genuinehappiness #laughter #laughdaily #adultpermissionslips #goodtimes #happy #blackwoman #blackjoy #iamhealing #iamwhole #maketimeforjoy #maketimeforyou #maketimeforwhatmatters #maketime #dailyjoy #dailylaughter #embodiment #findbeauty #findjoy #happyblackwoman #makeroomforjoy #grief #grieving #traumacare #traumarecovery #traumatherapy #howtobehappy #thehealingcollective #thehealingcollectiveal https://www.instagram.com/p/CTr96g9FtWc/?utm_medium=tumblr
