Needed a mental break and escape, so I thought it

Needed a mental break and escape, so I thought it would be fun to have a picnic out in the backyard. Being in nature always helps me be more mindful and sitting on the grass is so grounding for me! Enjoying the delicious @littlebuddhacocktailco 🍍Grilled Pineapple and Rosemary cocktail - it's lovingly crafted with organic, health-forward and socially conscious ingredients (0 sugar) and female founded, which I love supporting! Are you going to set up a picnic this week? Let me know if you add this fun drink to the mix! #LifeIsBuddhaful #LittleBuddhaCC #mindfulmoments #picnicdate

Any healthy relationship comes with conflict & ove

Any healthy relationship comes with conflict & over the years how we’ve dealt with it (dating as teens, then into our 20’s and later this year we’ll be entering our 30’s) has definitely changed and evolved (thankfully for the better)! Today’s @jollyeverafterpodcast episode is all about how we deal with conflict in our marriage (spilling some tea and what our weak spots are 😜). Neal and I have lived and worked with each other from home for years but for some in this quarantine all this newfound time and shared space 24/7 can be a pressure cooker. We’re hoping today’s episode can offer some tips for communication and help you come to resolutions quicker 🥴😉 while cultivating more grace in your relationship. Something we always say when we’re being pissy with each other is, “same team.” I’ll leave you with this excerpt today I love: “Happiness in marriage is not something that just happens. A good marriage must be created. It is standing together facing the world. It is not looking for perfection in each other. It is cultivating flexibility, patience, understanding and a sense of humour. It is having the capacity to forgive and forget. It’s discovering what marriage can be, at its best.” - Wilfred A. Peterson’s Poem, The Art Of Marriage 🤍 #TeamJolly #SameTeam #MeaningOfMarriage #GraceFilledLiving #JollyEverAfterPodcast #TheArtOfMarriage

Salt + Sun have always been my two favourite skincare ingredients 💦 I’m sharing my simplified quarantine skin routine on the blog today. I really started switching over to “clean” ingredients last year when we began our fertility journey. There are so many toxins and disrupters in products and I really have just wanted to use more natural, organic products as much as possible. I still do enjoy treatments/masks/eye creams that aren’t 100% but it’s all about moderation! My everyday consists of clean, simple ingredients and I try to let my skin breathe. Who else is trying to make more of a switch to cleaner products? Sharing more on stories & on my blog today if you’re interested (as well as discount codes, since I know skincare can be an investment when you’re switching over)✨

Give yourself permission to grieve over the life y

Give yourself permission to grieve over the life you hoped would be. Want a rewind of what life has looked like for us the last few months?...
Over a year of TTC & a miscarriage, our dreams were put on pause for a family.
We’ve been displaced from our home since December 2019.
My husband hasn’t been able to walk on his two feet since February 2020 after a bad injury.
We’ve been on lockdown (& still not in our own home), living in a global pandemic since March 2020 (we all are).
I don’t list this out to gain pity or complain, some of you are in my boat or perhaps worse (this isn’t to compare pain) - I’m sharing this because I will not allow myself to feel defeated.
I have let myself feel uninspired, frustrated, angry and sad (all your feelings are valid) but I won’t let myself be or feel defeated by all this.
I’m still believing for healing on our earth and in the lives this has affected physically, financially and mentally.
I’m believing for a quick return to our little sanctuary and focusing on finishing our renovations/home repairs (finally).
I’m believing for my husband to walk again & go back to dunking on the basketball court.
I’m believing for rainbows, miracles and seeing the gift that everyday has to bring, even when my circumstances don’t seem good, God still is.
I understand the wait - oh in every area of my life the “wait” has been tested friends. When will we back in our place, when will he walk again, when will this all be over, when will we start our family and the list goes on. I truthfully don’t know these things but surrendering my control is what has given me the most peace walking through waiting seasons and uncertainty.
So, I just want to remind you of this: no matter how big or small your grief feels over the way you had hoped life would be right now, you can do hard things. Trust that Hope is on the horizon. Embrace the life you have right now. Double the pain = double the joy to come! 🌈 Isaiah 61:7 #everydayisagift #gratitudefirst #gracefilledliving #heiswithyouinthewaiting #holdontohope
