I was listening to a book by Florence Scovel Shinn

I was listening to a book by Florence Scovel Shinn this weekend, and came across the statement, "You can't ask for success and then plan for failure." 🤯
If you imagine at least one way that it could work out, it not only decreases anxiety, but a plan just might emerge.
Do it a different way...
Amaze yourself.
(By the way, 'The Secret' is old news, Florence lived LONG ago. She put a Christian spin on metaphysical principles. Apparently Jesus was into secrets too 🤗 )
Happy Monday!!

Hi desk dwelling friends.
If you work at the computer all day, the wrists can get a little tired.
Pressing the palms together at heart center, can relieve a little pressure.
Keep the elbows lifted, unless that's too intense, in which case, lower them.
Try this little break throughout the day. Proceed with caution if diagnosed with carpal tunnel.
It's a mudra as well, but we won't get into all that.
Be well.

I bought radish without a plan. Rookie move.
When I realized the leaves were mush, I acted fast. Hit up @chefedharris via @thevirginhairfantasy for advice. Chef said, "Make a salad." So, here it is!!
Simple, ingredients on hand, less than 10 minutes to make.
Do you radish?

I change my hair a LOT because I can do it myself.

I change my hair a LOT because I can do it myself. Saves me thousands. My mom taught me.
I've been braiding since I was 9 y.o.
Prefer twists over braids, when doing my own hair. These, though done with kinky hair, are #senegalesetwists It's the flick of the wrist.
I'll claim Senegal until I get a DNA test. Senegal by way of; Bankhead, with a twist of West End. #FILA
Happy Saturday good people.

General meh, then an imbalance/injury caused by pregnancy left me unmotivated to exercise these last few weeks.
It didn't seem right for the person paid to motivate other people to move, to not want to. 🙋🏾‍♀️
I cut myself some slack. I mean, these are "unprecedented times" 🙄
Decided yesterday, was going to be the day to get back to it. It was not. But today was.
If you're in a similar boat, cut yourself some slack too.
1. It's temporary
2. Decide when to get back to it; movement, more water, more veggies, etc.
3. Set the date, set the alarm. Hit snooze. Try again tomorrow.
4. Deep breaths
5. Start (again) slowly.
6. Keep going...
💫💫It's a marathon, not a sprint. It's also your marathon and nobody else's. 💫💫

**UPDATE** I participated in this challenge unaware of its origin. Your & My beautiful black & white photo is yes, meant to empower other women, but it is also meant to bring awareness of femicide in Turkey. Hundreds, if not thousands of women die there annually, without justice.
There are men that disregard & dispose us of our worth. Violence against women anywhere is a tragedy. This post is to bring awareness to women of Turkey in particular.
Breonna Taylor also died at the hands of three men, and has YET to get justice on American soil. (Let us continue to fight for justice for women and BIPOC)

Aye!! Also, in all my years of braiding, I have never cornrowed my own hair. I'm into it.
