Discombobulated? A little. Disgruntled? Definitely. But at least I’m banana bread rich.

Play with me? Pick a prompt. Fill in the blank… 1. What am I saying here if I was speaking for you? And to whom? OR 2. What am I saying here as Carol speaking to Ross? Sure, my friends from Central Perk can play for real trivia, but if you were writing dialogue for you or us right now what would we be talking about? What on your heart? Good times? Better times? Future perfect? Or? Friends Writers Guild Of America West Warner Bros. TV NBC Entertainment Once upon a time… Noon Miracle | Creativity that Inspires

Does this sound like you?

"Here’s something I learned during my years of celibacy as I healed the emotional wounds in my system:

A constricted nervous system cannot hold expectancy for something better. It’s physiologically impossible to expect something better when you haven’t normalized it yet in your body.

An unhealed nervous system cannot imagine more than what it has already survived. Survival becomes the norm as a protective mechanism, so it settles for what feels familiar because familiarity is the closest thing it has to what it really needs: safety.

If struggle happened early and repeatedly, struggle becomes normal.

If love came with pain, drama becomes normal.

If affection required proving, proving yourself becomes normal in search for love.

And what feels normal to you will always find you."

—Jovanny Varela, excerpt from Gentle Reminder No 127, "What You Find Normal Will Find You: on what happens when your body doesn't know how to say yes to good things in life"

This is from a vulnerably honest piece I wrote about the moment I discovered that my body didn't know how to receive genuine love without expecting it to also hurt. If you still flinch when good things come your way, I wrote this one for you ❤️

Leo season begins today, kicking off four weeks of heightened intensity and a call toward spiritual awakening.

On July 27th, the sun connects with Uranus, Neptune retrograde, and Pluto retrograde, bringing buried tensions and power struggles to the surface that will ultimately push us toward honest confrontation.

July 29th brings a Full Buck Moon alongside a rare Jupiter-sun “cazimi” union, amplifying both luck and the risk of overindulgence.

On August 6th, the sun harmonizes with Saturn retrograde in Aries. This may bring a greater awareness to where we feel restricted, inviting us to address this within ourselves with compassion rather than criticism.

August 12th delivers a total solar eclipse in Leo. This is a major turning point urging us to release the dreams and goals that we have outgrown in order to make space for something new to emerge. This eclipse energy lingers until August 22nd, when the sun opposes the North Node of Destiny in Aquarius, guiding us into a new phase of being.

Throughout this period, the recurring themes and lessons are releasing fear, confronting hidden truths, and stepping into transformation. This stretch of the year may be a little intense, but it is all purposeful. Everything we shed now is clearing the way for renewal and rebirth.

I know. I know. We keep hoping they will protect us from the monsters, but… nope, it’s up to us. So time to reboot. Focus on what we DO want. Gather with GOOD hearted people and let’s protect and rebuild this world for 7 generations. Peace and thanks to all who joined us in the Quantum Field last night to learn. How are YOU?
