skin really do be that deep: the mind, body, soul as one

in creating my own skincare medicines, It became clear how truly connected our souls, minds, and bodies are. I knew, but not like I know now. even down to this skin we are in. we are souls housed in this sacred vessel. and with life actively happening, we may choose not to recognize their interactions, but we feel it regardless. you may attribute a dis-ease to something outside of yourself/cells like the food you been eating perhaps, but really how did you get to that first bite in the first place? or perhaps you blame genetics. but what habits really led you there? how did you learn them? what really is at the root of these lifestyle choices?

my freeforming crown: the loc journey I thought I'd be dreading

i’m so thankful to have come across loc’d queens and kings that’ve affirmed me in my decision, not only directly, but also in loving themselves so shamelessly. for years now, i’ve been unlearning this programming to have every curl and coil laid, and apologetic. by 2019, i was convinced that freeformin’ into locs was gonna be the most supportive experience towards this process. and it has, even in those short 9 months since i began. evidently, in all her forms, she brings lessons. when i see her, i’m reminded to be expressive, and unfiltered. to flow with change, so much so to find safety in it. to honor my feelings, and my vision. to always see me, especially when others don’t.
