I don’t know about ya’ll but my winter season has felt looooooooong. With the sun finally making an appearance in my rainy hometown, I decided to dedicate this next playlist to that glowing, warm orb.
 
While she can bring many positive changes to our physical and emotional health, the sun doesn’t always bring pure happiness.
 
This playlist is meant to flow through the many spaces we inhabit through, beneath, around, and in the presence of sun.
 
We are living in a devastating and tragic time. We are asked every day to face the world, despite the pain and violence it brings us. Still, many of us are fortunate to find pockets of joy through all of this. For you, it may be  as simple and important as a walk down the block, the smell of wild jasmine, a soft pillow, or a delicious spoonful of soup.
 
For me, lately, I find that joy in a full minute of naturally-lit, warm skin.
 
Forever grateful for the sun, I offer this playlist to all of you.

    Self Love

    Dear Readers,

    Be honest to yourself about what you want: out of life, to eat, to feel, to do in this world. Honor whatever it is, without judgment. Give yourself whatever it is you need. This is a process that takes time. It is the process of getting to know yourself, getting to know your body – without judgments or assumptions – learning to let all the parts of you be what they are.

    Face them, hear them, know them, and find peace in letting them be.

    Many of us work against ourselves – denying us pleasure, fulfillment, and fullness. This is no way to find peace. We are working for peace within our bodies and ourselves to reconnect us to our power center. We are learning how to listen to ourselves and honor our needs and desires.

    Be kind, be gentle, be love, be open.

    Enjoy your body.

    Love,
    AFO
