What’s helping me slow down this summer 🌿

It's already the end of July! How's your summer going?! Mine has been filled with some really great moments but it's all going by so fast! Don't you think?

It seems like we plan all the things, make all the lists, try all the things, DO IT ALL. Oh and don't forget to rest and take care too. And the days just zoom right on by. It can really leave you feeling a little burnt out.

That's why this summer, I've decided I’m done trying to keep up — Instead, I’m trying to slow down and listen.

To my body.

To my heart.

To my energy.
To the quiet voice that says,

“You’re doing enough. You are enough.”

Some mornings, I have the energy to braid my hair and water the plants. Other days, just making it out of bed feels like a miracle.
And I’ve decided — both are enough.

The world tries to get us to stay busy, distracted and unbothered by the state of our own bodies and minds.

But we've learned, self-healing is crucial to fighting the norm and staying on our own, authentic path.

Instead of pushing through, I’m leaning into little things that feel supportive and soothing. That ground me. That fill my cup.

And this month, I wanted to share them with you — in case you need a reminder too.

🌿 Supplements that actually help​
I like to keep it simple. It's hot, the body loses water and essential minerals through sweat – including sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and chloride – replenishing those lost nutrients is an essential step to feel your best during long those hot days. These Daily Electrolyte packs are a life saver for me personally - you know your girl got issues lol → [Daily Electrolytes]

And as always, a great place to start supporting your body, digestion, and immune system → [Digestive Enzymes]

I'd love to hear what you think?

These are the things that help me slow down, stay hydrated, manage stress and feel safe in my body — and I hope they support you, too.

You deserve softness, rest, and healing…before you are burnt out, not if and when you feel like you deserve it. You deserve it right now. You are enough today, just as you are. And always.

With love,
