Thank you for this beautiful post :-) The biggest challenge for me too is daily practice — but reading honest, ballsy work such as yours is inspiring, reinforcing and counts as ‘gathering reminders’, so I can put that in the success box for today!

For anyone interested in resources, I’ve also found Andrea Schroeder’s ‘Creative Dream Circle’ invaluable for tools and support with connecting to and understanding our inner fears — and finding self-compassion.

A big YAY too for Thich Nhat Hanh and Plum Village — I am blessed to live in Dordogne, only 90 minutes’ drive away. I did a very healing retreat there in spring and hope to go back in autumn.

Thank you for shining your light Jessica!
