How to respect the mystery without demanding that it explain itself? If you do, it sort of feels like magic. Here’s a letter I wrote to Inspiration (the energy, the entity) to help you sink into the sweetness of allowing, enjoying the unfolding of a beginning before any concrete ideas show up.

These affirmations are in honor of the kinds of changes that you absolutely must initiate and follow because they are what’s best for you. When change is in the air, especially when it comes to change for the sake of peace, let yourself flow into a new season of life with enthusiasm and curiosity.

Since turning 30 this month, I've decided a few things, one of which is that this next chapter of life is for me and my growth, my joy, my love of being alive. If you’re ready to wade a little deeper into the life that you’re craving, this affirmation might meet you perfectly: where you are.

Love inevitably leads back to love. That usually (probably always) means that sorrow is going to get thrown into the mix. Love, however, doesn’t stop. It may seem like it stops, but it morphs and flows; it’s powerful, eternal like that. This small collection of grief poetry is a reminder that “again” happens too.

If you meditate on the things you can control (and your list will likely be different from mine), then you’ll naturally feel more in control. Feel more in control, and you will radiate confidence and courage out into the universe. And the universe is listening…

Since you're here right now, as you are, why not try trusting the journey? You don’t have to stay here forever, and you won’t. Change is already in the works. And when you bring joy to *this* moment, it's easier to find it in the next. Read these quotes and embrace what's coming... with less stress, and more wonder.

Life doesn’t feel new and beautiful all the time. These poems about self-worth speak to that journey: it’s yours, after all. You’re here. That’s incredible enough. And that’s all the proof you need to start becoming the person you most want to be.

Trust me: I understand what it’s like to not know which direction is the right one, especially when there are so many directions calling your name. That’s why I wrote these affirmations to help you trust your journey, from one heart to another. Each one is a reminder that you ARE the journey, ultimately.

It's precious, always there for you, offering you an endless reservoir of support. The present moment is the best place to start anything new or reframe something old. Read these presence quotes and turn them into art by making them part of your reality.

Personal growth isn’t called “work” for no reason. This is my casual letter to you, inviting you to let yourself be whatever you are before anything else. It’s not the easy way and it doesn’t always feel like a gift, but it’s a rewarding direction.
