Episode 17: Play is not childish

Many of the most rewarding activities in life are hobby-related. From rock climbing to knitting, there are endless opportunities for fun and exploration. And contrary to popular belief, play is not just for children. Adults need play just as much as kids do, maybe even more. Play helps us to stay creative and curious, two essential qualities in life. So next time you're feeling stuck, remember that it's always ok to take a break and have some fun. Embrace your inner child and let yourself play. Who knows, you might just find your new favorite hobby in the process.

Episode 16: Moko Kauae

Moko Kauae is an ancient practice that has been passed down through generations of Maori women. It is a deeply personal and sacred ritual that is unique to each woman who undergoes it. The moko kauae is a symbol of womanhood and empowerment, and it helps to define the wearer's identity. It is a reminder to always be true to oneself, and to never lose sight of who you are. The moko kauae is also a reminder that womanhood is not about being perfect - it's about being yourself, flaws and all. It's about having the courage to be who you are, even when it isn't easy.

I will link the video below that further explains this practice, since I am not Maori and cannot speak to the practice, but I found this video very educational and very inspiring. I hope you enjoy !

Episode 15: The Lilac Bush

The lilac bush is a metaphor for growing and taking care of our needs to play. When we are children, we are encouraged to play, to be creative, to use our imaginations. We are free to explore and experiment. But as we grow older, we often forget the importance of play and how essential it is to our well-being. Play allows us to explore new ideas, to try new things, to take risks. And when we take risks, we open ourselves up to new possibilities, new experiences, new ways of seeing the world.

Episode 14: Being Perfectly Imperfect

It's okay to have days where you aren't feeling great. In fact, it's normal! We all have them, and it doesn't mean something is always wrong. It's your body asking you to check in with it and nurture yourself. When we don't take the time to listen to our bodies, they will eventually speak louder. This can manifest as physical or emotional symptoms that are difficult to ignore. If you're noticing that you've been having more of these off days than usual, maybe it's time for you to slow down and take some time for self-care.
