Spring is the return of the Sun, and my return to Self!
Springtime is universally known and celebrated as the season of new beginnings. Mine arrived with a boom and bang this year, and it was unexpectedly literal and painful. But I have emerged from that first quarter feeling anew, truly. In a sense, I have been reborn with new clarity, focus, and creative drive, as well as revamped love and appreciation for the incredible woman that I am…and have been. It was shocking to first realize how lost I had become in hope, vision, and trust that somehow began to point outward rather than inward, as I learned long ago is best. But, that is alright. Many of us awakened souls…

Creative Expression For Release & Healing
In my personal growth, I notice that I can no longer suppress what my spirit yearns to express. I suppose this is my unique experience of being guided into creating art for more than just myself. I touched on self-expression here before, but learning the importance of my voice has been something that I still find myself reflecting on often, in relation to womanhood. The truth is that I lost a sense of worth for a long time, and I have been re-adjusting since becoming an adult. I am now able to express my true self more freely than ever. When losing a sense of worth in oneself while being…

2017 UPDATE: Vegan & My Upcoming Online Store!
I have not done a personal life update in quite some time. This is a special year for myself, according to certain signs I’ve noticed, and all that is already coming into play within my direct reality. After years studying, cooking, detoxes, and financial planning, I am ecstatic to declare that I have adopted my own version of a Vegan diet. Last year, I shared a post about my Vegetarian/Pescatarian experience, which began in my early-adult life. This is the right time for myself to cross over into a lifestyle that pulls at me daily. The most difficult obstacle has been financial and relating to a lack of knowledge about…

Mind Noise
I have been reliving that awkward first moment when one of your most replayed songs is the one with your own voice on it! I wonder if I will get used to it. This feels like a good time to share the recurring themes I have noticed as of late. I find myself frequently inspired, and the wonderful thing is that the inspiration comes to me in many forms. For instance, the Flying Lotus show which I attended at The Wiltern was everything amazing that I expected, but there was something he said about how the things we create make us immortal that truly hit me at the right moment.…

Make way for the new. . .
New ideas, new ambitions, new manifestations! New VIRGO Moon! Today I am searching for a piece of mind that is weightless. I am searching for weightlessness so that I might fill it with energy of the greatest channeling I have ever done. If you are anything like I can be, you might constantly imagine ways to make yourself better. And if you’re even more like me, you tend to struggle with the manifestation of what you come up with every now and then. Sometimes I feel these blocks have a lot to do with having so much happening at once. Do you ever feel that way? Not just distracted, but…

I also believe that loVe wiLL take us higher.
(This is one hoodie that stood out to me during Downtown L.A.’s Trayvon Martin Million Hoodie march that I experienced back in March 2012.) When was the last time someone told you that you remind them of someone else in some way? We are all reflections, but our reaction to our experiences is what truly makes us unique. Everything we absorb and our perceptions become us. There is no one like you and that is the beautiful thing about life! Does that idea leave you with an ache that begs you to get out and experience more of it? Meet more, see more, trade more stories, leave words, create memories,…

This is (kindA) what I’m up to noW.
I realized that I have not written a full blog post on myself lately. It’s been fulfilling to share my lessons here, even though it is a blind exchange. Every concrete thing I would want to write and express about my current experience is still in progress. I don’t like to talk too specifically about what I’m getting into because the things are always changing shape before completion. I will share that I have been doing a lot of self-defining writing lately. I see myself clearer than ever, so a lot of wonderful messages are escaping me. Besides the poetry I have been writing, I am gradually working on the…

Project Feed: L.A. needs Vendors! (updated June 19th)
I’ll soon update this post with more details, but a friend of mine along with over forty other people (including myself and we’re growing!) will partake in a 2-Day fundraising event to feed the homeless residents of Los Angeles. This will be Project Feed’s very first festival here in Los Angeles and the people need all of the help we can get. We want artists and business owners of all sorts to partake in this event. I know that I’ve always wanted to contribute of something as beautiful and BIG as this will be and as with everything else this year, my dreams are coming closer. We are prepping a…

Freely Observing
I have practiced living freely lately. What does it mean to live freely? I notice that most people think of it in terms of financial stability. Being able to buy whatever you like and go wherever you like because you have all of the money you’ve ever dreamed of is what those in this age consider freedom. This is fair, but I am happier than ever while being far from my financial goals. So, what do I mean exactly? When I say FREELY, I mean living, breathing, walking around with acknowledgement of mental blocks that threaten to stop me from doing what I want, whatever it maybe. Fear is an…

Yeah baby, I like it RAW!
All RAW everything! At least for the next two weeks… I’m currently experiencing my sixth day of the twenty day HERBAL cleanse I’m doing which requires that I adopt an all raw food diet. Yup! This means that I am not consuming anything that has been processed with sugar and artificial flavors and other chemicals that we know make up the foods we consume regularly. No dairy products, or anything of animal origin has entered me since this past Monday! Once again, I’m amazed by the timing of this particular adventure because I’ve been interested in improving my diet, but I always thought it would be too expensive to start…
