Last Days of Summer

Happy Rainy Week Everyone 🥹


" Embrace love, embrace loss, embrace the afterglow of how it felt... Don't be afraid to care, to love, to lose someone... Immerse yourself fully into those feelings, that are wholly human and absolutely beautiful ❤️"


I haven’t written in awhile, not from a lack of being inspired, but simply because I’ve been busy. I know everyone is busy… we try to fit in so many things in such short amount of time, in fear of missing out. I try to do a lot, but also savor the moment while I’m in it 💗 It’s kind of bittersweet when the seasons change… there’s a freshness in the air, but the light begins to fade, and the warmth of summer leaves us once again. Although, I wasn’t able to get out into the sun as much this past week, I was able to spend this last weekend at Chambers Bay, one of my favorite places to adventure! This past week was really good, I drove to Vancouver and received a massage from one of the students there, which was a huge relief and nice break from the long drive. I’ve felt a lightness that I haven’t felt in a long time… most of my life actually. Just as I try to embrace moments, I’m starting to embrace life without fear, and accept things that come my way: either good or bad, and not let it define my life. In many ways, I’m more alive than I’ve ever felt, possibly because I have options that I’ve never had before. If something bad happens to me, there’s always someone there to walk me through it, to help me, to let me know it’s not the end of the world. I no longer have to face things alone… and I trust myself more than I ever have.

With the colder weather, I can find comfort in those around me, in new adventures, and bringing healing and warmth into others lives as well ✨️

Some of the things I hope to do during the Fall and Winter months, is more running of course! Yoga, Pilates, Dance class, Paint and Sip Parties, ladies nights and when run group ends for the season, continuing to meet with my group through the winter for long walks, runs, or a drink and company.

I also find comfort that I have so many Massage Therapist friends who I can schedule a massage with last minute, and we can do trades, learn from each other and give each other relief from pain. I’m so fortunate to have so many amazing people in my life, who I have a special bond with, and share similar interests.

Before I went to Chambers Bay this past weekend, I participated in the Specialty Clinic at the school, where I was given so much relief from pain and learned so much in the process. One of the drawbacks, was that my laundry was stolen while I was gone… which included almost all of my towels, some of my favorite clothes and some special things that can never be replaced. I was really upset… but my friend took me out and bought me a whole new set of towels and helped me in many ways. Life is about balance 💕


How are you finding balance in your life, enjoying the last days of summer, and learning to live without fear?
