My day goes infinitely better when I am #intentional about the first thing I eat for the day. I mean, this is probably a “duh” moment for some folks, HOWEVAH I am the person that loves breakfast food but I hardly ever have an interest in breakfast (unless it’s a social gathering … or BRUNCH ). I’ve hardly ever made a fuss or prioritized the first meal of the day. Matter of fact I’m more likely to eat breakfast food for dinner than for breakfast
But as per usual my trips/relocations to Barbados can be hectic, stressful and taxing on my health in numerous ways. And whaddya know … something I never cared about turns out to be something that has become an integral part of my self care. Some mornings I have to throw my fruit salad in a bag and go. Sometimes I have to walk into the supermarket and tell myself “️you deserve this 14.99 box of strawberries (even though they ain’t organic).”
BUT taking the 15-20 mins it may take to peel the fruit, cut it, core it, place it so that it looks like I picked my bowl up from a buffet has become a type of #meditation for me in the midst of chaos. I’m so grateful for everything that leads and led up to this moment of intentionality in my life .
Has anything you gave no fvcks about before become an integral part of your #selfcare practice?

Malachite is a stone of growth and transformation. It corresponds with the heart chakra, and it not only helps us to open up and welcome change, but it encourages taking the risk & being the change maker.
Malachite is also said to aid us in seeing and accepting hard truths about ourselves.
Be very cautious with malachite as it can be toxic if ingested. Only handle polished malachite and never get your malachite stones wet.

“I realized that true beauty is what’s inside and accepting myself for who I am.”
Dinah Jane Milika Ilaisaane Hansen Amasio known as Dinah Jane Hansen (b. June 22, 1997) is a member of the band Fifth Harmony. She is the youngest in the music group.
Born and raised in Orange County, CA, Dinah is of Polynesian heritage, specifically Tongan. She has stated that her mother remembers the first time she heard her sing “Happy Birthday” at only 4 years of age. She sang the National Anthem in public at age 7 in Sacramento, California. Since then she has been singing at various events in Orange County. She was introduced to music producers and songwriters, including Pacific Big Dave Icon Management Group (PIMG), Kennedy Mailo, Trey Smoov, MsBrown, and Baby J. Hansen, and sang songs of her idols Beyoncé, Leona Lewis, Mariah Carey, and Etta James. Dinah has been said to be similar to Beyoncé due to her having a powerful voice.
Dinah auditioned for The X Factor with the song If I Were A Boy by Beyoncé. L.A. Reid said that she took the song to places that even Beyoncé didn’t, which is a massive compliment. If the star Dinah can outshine even Beyoncé there is no telling what she can do next.

My last journal entry for 2016:
He said “you’re like a butterfly"… I laughed, as ironically enough I had always likened myself to a butterfly but I’ve always felt cocooned like if I could just reach all the markers I had set out in life to accomplish, that I’d finally have my freedom.
25 is around the corner for me & the truth is this year I learned quite possibly the most important lessons thus far in my journey - it’s not the wings that make the butterfly beautiful it’s the resilience to giving up hope, even in darkness, even in solitude and even in stillness.
I’ve resented my cocoon for so long but now I understand, the contrasts of life are necessary. We must take the good with the bad, there are no hills without valleys and no darkness without light.
My peace, the keeper of time and the creator of all things has sewn my wings together - I was flying all the while and I didn’t even know it Cheers to the winds of change, love, health and the light of happiness I hope you all have a blessed 2017 ✨ ••• #bye2016 #changeisgood #evolve #butteryfly #journaling #jadejanelle #aquarius #lighttheworld #theresmore #bluehair #braidgang #singlebraids #protectivestyles #canadiannaturalistas #blackgirlmagic #melanin #jamaicangirl #islandgirl
