šŸ½ A few years ago, I used to be too busy to cook, and so barely ate in between studio sessions, rehearsals and travel. Even with all the snorkelling, dancing, working out and beach-walking in between my eating pattern was on and off. Scroll forward. Being in the kitchen isnā€™t a chore; itā€™s a reminder to be thankful thereā€™s something to put on the table. When you want some fresh ideas šŸ’” to make healthy tasty tropical food without a fuss, come by @gentle.honey.spice.curry - Iā€™m not a pro chef or anything fancy like that but come get some ideas and inspiration for your next flavour-filled Caribbean veggie meals. Nuff spices involved. šŸ› #cookingfromscratch #calmkitchen #homecooks #shecooks

šŸƒ deep breaths and a nature walk to the river. Guard your mind especially in these times hear?
The questions keep coming in about my natural hair care nowadays (since opening my locs after mussee 10 or more years) and some still asking for a YT channel sharing steps. Hereā€™s a pic walk-through of deep conditioning & wash day. One thingā€™s for sure; taking care of my hair (on wash day) takes a whole lot longer than when it was locā€™d, but know what? I enjoy the process and pruning time. Itā€™s a reminder to slow down for a purpose - not tedious, but nurturing and puts you in a peaceful state when listening to or singing along with something uplifting or quietly thanksgiving. (Oh, the last pic is from next-day hair.) And in case you wanna know how long it took to open my locsā€™ - 3 months
šŸ after a sweet walk to look at The Isle Of Wight
šŸ–Š mornings and pockets of quiet in the day sometimes look like thisā€¦itā€™s more than drawings of words, verses, promises, prayers, songs, and gratitude lists for meā€¦visual reminders like these are sweet surprises when flipping through pages at times when Iā€™m not up to writing or drawing or feeling a bit ā€œoff.ā€ Quiet time with pen, paper and promises from above helps to calm the mind, process every letter, remember each word and cherish the essence of the message. Try it sometime, sis. It doesnā€™t have to look fancy, be in colour or have a million fontsā€¦but notice how much more deep breaths are, relaxed your resting face is and lighter you are (in general and to others) right after. Starting with a word or a verse and taking time to decorate it is different than spilling out words and flickering feelings on paper like journalingā€¦ā€™bout time we pelt fickle feelings in de backseat and put Truth to the fore and at the core. Feelings (like moods) can waver but Truth remains the same.
