Week 9 | This Week’s Love Notes

This week’s energy was different for me. I’m grateful for what I know about how to move through different energy because it’s a week that I could have very quickly found myself in a state of burnout. I haven’t pushed or forced anything and really moved through each task with what felt good for me. It wasn’t about procrastinating, avoiding or resisting anything. It was about giving myself the permission to do things on my to do list at different times of the day, different moments, different amounts of time and just with different feelings. And because of that, I still accomplished everything, but simply FELT different in doing it all.

Week 8 | This Week's Love Notes {366 Project}

Friends, I think it’s happening. Spring is on the horizon. The sun has been coming out more often and earlier in the morning, we are finding ourselves outside and I’m seeing less and less moody window light. We survived the first week of Mercury being retrograde, we’re getting stuff done but going with the flow.

Week 7 | This Week’s Love Notes

This was a week that things felt a little harder, my energy was a little less, there were a few more tears than normal and I felt the challenges of motherhood and, well, life. The amazing part of it is that I am becoming so aware of the woman’s cycle and all that comes with the different phases that instead of falling victim to this week, I was able to truly ride it out. With awareness and knowledge, there is an ability to surrender, and so I did just that and it brought me into a weekend that felt a bit lighter and a bit easier.

For anyone who doesn’t know what a 365 project is (or Project 365) it’s taking on the challenge of taking a picture a day. There are many ways to do this and many whys. My very first one was in 2013, the year my daughter was born. I remember taking this project on to simply help me become more acquainted with my camera, connect with others doing the same project, and build my skill. Little did I know that I’d be documenting some of the most precious days of my life being a brand new mother.
