🌸 Self-Care: Glowing, Grieving, and Softening Into Presence

Fresh out of the shower, I felt renewed — my hair lighter, my face glowing from the fascia work I had done earlier. But as I settled into the evening, I also noticed something else: waves of sadness.

Instead of pushing it away, I let myself feel it. I curled up with Netflix, cozy and soft, and allowed the grief to sit beside me.

Self-Care Is More Than Skin Deep

It’s easy to think of self-care as just glowing skin, supple fascia, or an energized body. But self-care also lives in the moments we simply allow ourselves to be.

✨ To feel what arises.

✨ To rest without guilt.

✨ To soften even when emotions come in waves.

Glow and Grieve in the Same Breath

Sadness isn’t a sign of weakness — it’s a sign of aliveness. To glow and grieve in the same breath is to honor our wholeness. Fascia softens when we let ourselves feel. Presence deepens when we stop bracing.

This is the beauty of living in the body: we are both light and shadow, glow and grief, movement and stillness.

A Reminder for You

If you needed this reminder today: you don’t have to be “on” all the time. You can rest. You can feel. You can glow and grieve in the same breath.

Your body, your fascia, your spirit — they all know how to soften into presence. 🌸
