🐍2025: Chapter 6🐍
Welcome to the heart of the Summer. ❤️🔥
I’ve been on break from school and we’ve been spending our days exploring Disney, crafting at the library, tending to an experimental garden, reading tarot, having breakfast in bed, and caring for our home as a sacred space.
All while feeling like the world is burning down around us.
Every time I sit to reflect, all I can see is the dichotomy of life.
Joy within heartbreak.
Clarity within pain.
Humor within anger.
I’ve written this same thing in many posts before and forgotten and it’s showing up again for me and this reminder is my July gift to you. 🤍

🐍2025 Chapter 5🐍
(Half way through Chapter 6 since I’ve been on a social media break)
It’s funny that I’ve been putting these snakes on these posts all year but I had no idea how much shedding I would be doing. Everyone always say shedding feels good like taking off clothes that are too tight but for me it has been incredibly painful like someone ripping off peeling sunburn before it’s ready. 🥵
Did you know that the year your animal match’s with the Chinese zodiac year it’s called your “enemy year” or year of conflict?
Anyone else year of the snake? How are we feeling almost half way through?

🗂️SAVE this post to your meal inspo folder🗂️
It’s no secret that food + lifestyle are the simplest + most inexpensive way to reduce symptoms of DISease + promote optimal health. 👩🏻🔬
As a mother, helping my kids develop a relationship to nature through food is a priority for me.
As a woman, using food to support my unique hormonal needs is a priority for me.
As a consumer, using my dollars to choose real, whole food over processed food like man made products is a priority for me.
All of that to say, we all have different unique needs when it comes to the meals we choose for ourselves + our families AND it evolves over time so what may be nourishing for me in this moment, may not feel right for you. Take what you need and leave the rest. 🫶🏻
🍲FIRST, on my pre grocery shopping day I make an everything but the kitchen sink soup/stew to use the last of our herbs and veggies. This week it was split pea and lentil with carrots and celery and cilantro. (Save and freeze your veggie and meat scraps to make your own broth as a less waste option to buying premade broth.)
🍳 Breakfast this week: Coconut chia bowl, sweet potato and Brussels sprout hash with eggs, and mixed berry smoothie.
🥗Lunch this week: copycat broccoli yum yum salad with teriyaki tempeh, chicken Mediterranean bowls, and chick pea Cesar salad.
🫒 Snacks: hummus and veggies, apples and almond butter, crackers and avocado, dark chocolate and peanut butter bites.
🍜Dinners: lemon honey butter chicken with beets and rice, turkey and red bean chili, and tempeh rainbos stir fry.
