Hey, love. I'm Jen ~
a writer and suicide loss survivor. I write words of hope and heart to help you through hard times. From poetry to practices, it’s all love. Take what you need. Even if life’s pretty good these days, there’s something here for you.
Hope you can hold on to.
Art prints, meditations, books. I believe in making things with heart, things that last a lifetime and impact your life for the better. Thoughtful, helpful, a joy to give and receive. The way it should be.
If all you’ve got left is a thread of hope, read my blog.
People say my words are the light in their darkness. I say: stay until you remember that you ARE the light.
“You helped me to not just survive. Thank you for that.”

From the Blog, with Love

These words aren't associated with any certain religious beliefs, just the religion of love, and oneness. The idea behind them is that when you pray, however you pray, be the prayer. When you love, be the love.

This heartbeat meditation is a beautiful way to connect with your “inner flame” and the simple joy of being alive. It's uplifting and centering, as practical as it is sacred. As you sync with your inner rhythm, you might sense a flicker of light still on inside — even after everything, even the middle of everything.

Please Help: A Prayer for Harder Seasons
If your soul is tired, this is for you. Maybe you just lost someone you love, or you've been carrying around a heavy grief for years. Maybe you're tired of trying to be someone you're not, or trying in vain to inspire change in someone else. I get it. That's why this is one of the best prayers I know: "Please help."
