courage

It takes courage and commitment to show up and meet yourself in a way you haven’t before—allowing parts of yourself to whisper things you are longing to meet, recognizing what needs to be reclaimed, and recognizing that those parts are not yours alone.

Prevent Holes in Your T-Shirts

Your T-shirts have mysterious holes after being washed

“Holes, tears and snags could be caused by unfastened zippers, hooks and belt buckles that snag synthetic knits,” DiNicolantonio says. “To prevent this from happening, fasten zippers, buckles, hooks and eyes [on clothes] before adding them to the washer, and turn synthetic knits inside out to wash them.”

For particularly fragile fabrics, you may want to take the extra step of placing them in mesh wash bags and washing them in a gentle cycle without rough items, Stern says.

earth tones

Color is a language in and of itself for artists, but sometimes using a lack of color is the perfect way to express what we’re feeling and thinking inside, or even to reflect what we are witnessing outside in nature. Mother Nature herself exhibits fewer colors during winter, but this limited palette can still be endlessly inspiring, as each subdued color offers countless shades and tones to explore.

Black women

““Black women have not focused sufficiently on our need for contemplative spaces. We are often ‘too busy’ to find time for solitude. And yet it is in the stillness that we also learn how to be with ourselves in a spirit of acceptance and peace. Then when we re-enter community, we are able to extend this acceptance to others. Without knowing how to be alone, we cannot know how to be with others and sustain the necessary autonomy.”— bell hooks in Sisters of the Yam, 2005
