Thank you for your beautiful words! I am also working on reminding myself that it’s okay to soften, it’s okay to rest, over and over again, so your words felt particularly comforting. Sending you so much love🫶🏻✨
Thank you for sharing this reflection -- those reminders are so important and an ongoing practice, much like most things -- and it feels freeing to know we can return to/remember them, even if we forget sometimes. Thanks for being here 🤍🤍
I totally needed to hear this and I know so many others do as well. I appreciate this post (and all of your others as well). I feel seen, I feel the most comforted that it’s an ebb and flow of tightening and softening in a hardening world.
I recently have been dealing with a lot of loss and I had a moment where I realized that holding space to just be and experience all that came with it made it much easier to not hold onto anything. I have it proper space in the moment so I felt ready to let the pain and grief go. As I experience it in waves, I let the human experience happen. Your language very much helps me to understand these feelings and processes. Thank you Lisa! 💜
I just wrote about dr Claire Weeks and her book self help for nerves. It's all about how we must float through hardship ie soften rather then tense up, and it's the way to address anything from a nervous breakdown to symptoms like POTS or headaches etc. just float, and let time pass.
Absolutely amazing. Thank you so very much. Soft was my word of the year for 2022. I am going to print this and read over and over again. You nailed it. Brilliant writing.
This is me, over and over again. It’s not always easy to stay “soft” but I keep trying and trying...
The keep trying and trying part is truly all we can ask of ourselves 🤍

“May you soften into…” Oh, yes, please - how beautiful.
A continual reminder to myself.
Absolutely beautiful post. Love this so much.
Thank you for reading <3
I’m realizing I don’t know how to rest. Would love a post on that someday!
❤️

Thank you for this. It is a piece to come back to again and again.

This brought tears to my eyes - your words resonated deeply today. Thank-you.
It is SO comforting to know I am not alone. 💕

"Softness allows for possibility." ❤️

Well isn’t that just what we all need and hope for. Thank you Lisa.
Beautiful writing!
