Hello Petal(s),

Lol. I used to have a friend who used to say “petal” as a term of endearment rather than “love” or “honey.” And what an adorable word to use for Spring and acknowledgment of how you are a part of a beautiful collective as a unique individual. A part of a whole. Our One Collective.

Today, I share tips in this podcast episode on elevating your Gratitude Practice if it’s feeling stale. And it’s Spring, after all! Add some fresh “flowers” (aka details) to it, and make it enjoyable for you!

I do want to add — that at the end of this episode — I share that you can mix modalities but didn’t get super deep into it. You can use breathwork (deep breath in and out) while you think or say your words of gratitude. And really feel it in your body. You can also use visualization to see different colors with your body, for example, or visuals of what gratitude looks like to you — i.e. sparkling pink gratitude rain washing over you.

The fun thing about the brain, body, and nervous system is that the brain doesn’t know the difference between what’s real and what’s not, and you are training your nervous system for safety (the parasympathetic nervous system) to become more open and aware of what’s possible.

Habits stack over time. It only takes 5 minutes a day, any time of the day. 😘

Soul Simple, Soul Amazing,

Christian Joy

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
