It’s Lunar New Year and we are officially moving into the Fire Horse Energy! So let’s check in with our body! How are you? What are you moving through right now? And as you breathe and feel into this space, what are you cultivating/calling in today on this powerful day? Drop it below so we can breathe it in and support each other as we challenge ourselves, and, more importantly, connect with ourselves more deeply in this next year. I can’t wait to read 🤓

So real talk: most of us are running on a nervous system that learned "scarcity" a long time ago. And now? Even when we win, our body doesn't know how to receive it. So we're stuck in this loop: achieve, feel empty, achieve more, still feel empty. That's not a willpower problem. That's a nervous system problem. Here's what I want to offer you today: A 3-minute practice that interrupts that cycle. Not to fix everything (that's deeper work). But to give your nervous system a taste of what regulation actually feels like. Because once your body knows what arrival feels like, the scarcity loop loses its grip. THE PRACTICE: "Permission to Arrive" Find a quiet space. 2-3 minutes. That's it. Step 1: Notice What You've Won Close your eyes. Think of ONE thing you've accomplished in the last 10 days. Something real. Doesn't have to be huge. (Even if your brain immediately says "yeah but..." shush. Not now!) Step 2: Breathe Into It Take a deep breath in through your nose (count of 4). Pause. Exhale slowly through your mouth (count of 6). Do this 3 times while you hold that accomplishment in your awareness. Your body is literally shifting out of scarcity and into receipt. Step 3: Notice the Shift What changed? Your shoulders drop? Your chest opens? Your breath deepens? That's your nervous system recognizing: "Oh. I'm safe. I've won." Why This Matters: Your "not enough" isn't going away because you keep feeding it with more achievement. It goes away when your nervous system finally believes you're safe. This 3-minute practice? It's your nervous system's first taste of that. Do it today. Notice what shifts. Then come back and tell me what you felt. Because I'm genuinely curious what happens when you finally give yourself permission to arrive instead of just keep hustling. DM "arrived" if you tried this and want to explore deeper work around rewiring that scarcity loop. Or just comment below—I want to hear what you noticed. 💚

it’s the little things! You spend 20-45 minutes in your car. Alone(mostly) Every single day. And most of us waste it on autopilot—podcasts, music, scrolling at red lights, stress spiraling about the day. But what if your commute became your intentional reset button? Here's how: MORNING COMMUTE = Set Your Intention Before you even pull out of the driveway, do this: 3 deep intakes and exhales. Halo breath. Nothing complicated. As you breathe in, ask: What energy do I want to cultivate today? What do I want to cash in on? Then drive. No music. No podcast. Just you and the road. Notice things. The trees. The sky. The other cars. Your own breath. Your nervous system is already regulating. Your mind is already setting the tone for everything that comes next. By the time you get to work? You're not arriving frantic. You're arriving intentional. EVENING COMMUTE = Release and Reset The workday is done. Your body is still holding everything—the stress, the emails, the tension, the decisions. So here's what you do: Sing. Loud. Obnoxious. Doesn't matter if you're good. Belt it out. Vocalize. Let anything trapped come out through your voice. Singing is one of the fastest ways to shift your nervous system from "work mode" to "home mode." Your body releases what it's been holding. The energy moves instead of stagnates. By the time you get home? You're present. Not still at the office. Your family or pet or friends or simply YOU gets the actual version of you. Not the residual stressed version. HERE'S THE THING: This isn't complicated. This isn't another practice you have to "find time for." It's using the time you're already spending. It's the mind-body connection. It's somatic work. It's intention. It's release. It's literally available to you every single day. So here's what I want: Try this for ONE week. Morning: Halo breath + notice drive. Evening: Sing your heart out. Then come back and tell me what shifted. How you showed up at work. How you showed up at home. How your body felt. What your team noticed. What your family noticed.
