Found this information on how to ignite your chakras 🧘‍♀️

We just saw “Masters of the Universe” and it was such a good movie!

Many trauma survivors learned that having needs was dangerous. Maybe asking for help led to disappointment. Maybe setting a boundary led to conflict. Maybe expressing feelings led to ridicule, punishment, or abandonment. So we learned to become small. We became easygoing. Self-sufficient. Low-maintenance. We said, “It’s fine,” when it wasn’t. We convinced ourselves we didn’t need much. We became experts at reading everyone else’s emotions while losing touch with our own. For a while, these strategies may have helped us survive. But healing sometimes means realizing that invisibility is no longer protecting us. You are allowed to take up space. You are allowed to say, “I need support.” You are allowed to say, “That hurt me.” You are allowed to ask for reassurance, rest, clarity, kindness, or connection. The people who genuinely care about you do not benefit from a version of you that is constantly disappearing. Healing is not becoming louder or more demanding. It is learning that your needs matter just as much as everyone else’s. You do not have to earn your place by being the easiest person in the room. You already belong.

Trauma can feel a lot like a black hole. In real physics, a black hole is so dense that its gravity bends space and time around it. The closer you get, the more it shapes everything nearby. Trauma can do something similar in the mind. A painful event may be long over, but its gravity can keep pulling thoughts, emotions, and reactions back toward it. Memories that seem distant can suddenly feel present. Time can become distorted—years pass, yet part of you still feels stuck at the moment of impact. But black holes aren’t just places where things disappear. Scientists have discovered that black holes can create enormous jets of energy and even help shape entire galaxies. Healing doesn’t erase what happened. It changes your relationship to it. The wound may always be part of your story, but it no longer has to be the center of your universe. Sometimes the goal isn’t to destroy the black hole. It’s to build a galaxy around it. ✨🖤🪐

Some of healing is grieving lives that never happened. The version of you who never got hurt. The version who was understood sooner. The version who stayed. The version who never had to become so strong. For a long time, I thought healing meant finding a way back to those lost paths. Now I wonder if healing is something else. Maybe healing is walking through the library of all those unlived lives, placing a hand on each book, and saying: “Thank you.” Then choosing to keep reading the story that is still being written. The one you’re living right now. The one that still has blank pages. 💜

🌱 Daily Micro-Actions for Healing Healing doesn’t usually happen through one big breakthrough. More often, it happens through small, consistent acts of care repeated over time. Choose one or two micro-actions from this infographic each day. Don’t worry about doing everything. The goal isn’t perfection—it’s building a gentle relationship with yourself, one small step at a time. Notice which actions feel supportive, which feel challenging, and which spark a sense of calm, connection, or hope. Over time, these tiny moments can become the foundation of lasting healing. 💜 Which micro-action will you try today?

A few days ago, I had a significant health scare. I’m okay, but it shook me more than I expected. Ever since, I’ve found myself thinking about consciousness. Not in an abstract philosophical way, but in a very personal one. What is this thing that experiences being me? What is the awareness behind my thoughts, memories, emotions, and sense of self? And what happens to it when the body can no longer sustain it? Does consciousness continue in some form? Or does it simply end? I don’t know. The older I get, the less interested I am in certainty and the more interested I am in honest questions. And if consciousness doesn’t continue, then another question arises: What do we leave behind? Not just our possessions or accomplishments, but the small ways we touched other lives. The conversations. The kindnesses. The moments we were fully present with another human being. The ways we changed people and were changed by them. I’ve been feeling a little strange since the experience. A little quieter. A little more aware of how mysterious it is that any of us are here at all. I don’t have answers. Just gratitude for another day, and a deeper appreciation for the people I get to share it with.

Heart Chakra Wrap-up: Before we move up into the specialized upper chakras, take a moment to assess the bridge you've built: 1. Have I successfully responded to my own craving or shame with curiosity rather than punishment? 2. Have I mapped out the current state of my relationships? 3. Did I complete one anonymous act of service to step outside my own head?

It’s PTSD Awareness Month 🎗️

Heart Chakra Activity 4: Now we are going to use focused creativity to ground the emotional work. We'll be using the colors of the Heart Chakra (emerald green and soft pink), layering to visually represent the healing of the heart. This will be an intentional coloring session focusing entirely on the technique of blending. Select a design that features botanical elements—vines, leaves, or anatomical hearts. Use colored pencils to practice advanced blending techniques, transitioning smoothly from deep, dark greens into bright, vibrant pinks. The physical act of blending one color seamlessly into another represents the bridging nature of this chakra. To enhance this practice , keep a piece of Rose Quartz (symbolizing unconditional love) or Green Aventurine (symbolizing heart-healing and growth) on the desk while you work to keep the thematic energy anchored in the room. When you look at the finished blend of colors, remind yourself that your healing is a gradual, layered process, not an overnight flip of a switch.

Found this poster which tells us which gemstones have healing properties for each chakra!

I love horror movies! Currently wanting to see Obsession as I haven’t seen it yet.
