Rooted in Self-Love
As the world spins faster, staying grounded in your own love of self becomes a quiet act of power. This one is about roots — the kind that hold.
As the 2020s roll on, staying grounded — in your mind and in your body — is only going to get harder. The world turns faster and faster. Politics, headlines, controversy, fear: everything outside of you has an agenda to pull you out of your logical mind and into an emotionally manipulated crowd. I say you are smarter than that.
The love that actually holds
The fluffy, heart-eyed-emoji kind of love doesn't put down roots. It floats above the knee. The love that roots your tree into the earth is something deeper: the full acceptance of your whole self — shadow included.
When you accept your own shadow (what some might call "sin"), you can finally see it in others without fear or judgment. You can meet them with empathy, and set healthy boundaries where you need them.
Master your emotions before they master you
True love just is. Sometimes it's painful — mostly because we cling to these things called expectations. But true self-love cannot be manipulated or judged by anyone outside of you.
You are the mountain that cannot be moved.
The real challenge is keeping your heart open — to all beings, in all ways, at all times — while staying unattached to any outcome, for them or for you.
This is exactly the kind of message the body can absorb through pure, intentional ingredients. I created a smoothie to help you refuse to assign emotional weight to the noise of the world — to hold your heart open while you rise up and out of compliant compassion. I believe it is a much-needed tool for every human psyche.
Your self-love is the foundation of your health and your wealth. The "healthy, wealthy you" only exists in the grounded equilibrium of a balanced vessel. So root down. This world is ramping up — and you shall not be messed with.
