Mindful Art

March 14, 2017September 22, 2017Leave a comment

Creating a work of art is my favorite thing to do when I’m in need of some mindful reinforcements. I feel the weight of outside worries drifting away as I become completely immersed in the world I’ve begun to create on my canvas. The paint color and the brush are no longer just a dollop … Continue reading Mindful Art

A little background on my journey so far…

How did I get here?

Being at peace

peace comes in waves and settles on stones

Breathing exercise

this is one of my favorite reminders to STOP and focus on the breath!

Why are we here?

I've learned (and am still learning every. single. day.) that growth comes from understanding the lessons behind fear.

L i f e is f u l l of c h o i c e s || Today, I chose myself. Then, I chose to go to the gym. Then, I chose to “reward” myself for going to the gym by walking a few more miles to @wholefoods to get all the ingredients for a perfect salad that’s both delicious and nutrient-dense. • @olivias_organics arugula • @hexferments glow kraut • @lundbergfarms tri-color quinoa • @treelinecheese dairy free herbed cheese (tastes like goat cheese😋) • @hilaryseatwell broccoli casserole bites • giant dollop of @cava roasted garlic hummus • pumpkin seeds & dried cranberries from @momsorganicmarket bulk section • @tessemaes green goddess dressing . . . . . #mindfulliz #mindfulfood #mindfulmood #goodmoodfood #dairyfree #soyfree #vegetarian #vegan #vegetarianfood #veganrecipes #whatveganseat #feedyourgut #feedyourbrain #gutbrainconnection #mindfulness #mindfuleats #mindfuleating #eattherainbow #foodforlife #foodforthought #healthyfood #healthiswealth #feedfeed #thefeedfeed #eeeeeats #mindbodygram #f52grams #iamwellandgood

l u n c h o f m y d r e a m s || Admittedly, I’ve been slacking on lunches (and dinners) lately, opting for convenience over nutrients. But this bowl took only 10 minutes to put together: • 1/2 cup leftover rice, lightly sautéed • loosely chopped spinach & mixed greens • Giant serving of @hexferments Glow Kraut (mmmm turmeric + probiotics!) • @eathempeh Smoked salt + pepper “steak” cut and lightly sautéed (plant-based protein + some more probiotics because it’s fermented) - if you haven’t tried Smiling Hara tempeh you MUST - found at @momsorganicmarket @wholefoods @wegmans • topped with @primalkitchenfoods green goddess dressing . . . . . #mindfulliz #mindfulfood #mindfulmood #goodmoodfood #dairyfree #soyfree #vegetarian #vegan #vegetarianfood #veganrecipes #whatveganseat #feedyourgut #feedyourbrain #gutbrainconnection #mindfulness #mindfulnessmatters #mindfuleats #mindfuleating #eattherainbow #foodforlife #foodforthought #feedfeed #thefeedfeed #eeeeeats #mindbodygram #f52grams #iamwellandgood @buzzfeedfood @buzzfeedtasty @huffposttaste

When great trees fall, rocks on distant hills shudder, lions hunker down in tall grasses, and even elephants lumber after safety. . When great trees fall in forests, small things recoil into silence, their senses eroded beyond fear. . When great souls die, the air around us becomes light, rare, sterile. We breathe, briefly. Our eyes, briefly, see with a hurtful clarity. Our memory, suddenly sharpened, examines, gnaws on kind words unsaid, promised walks never taken. . Great souls die and our reality, bound to them, takes leave of us. Our souls, dependent upon their nurture, now shrink, wizened. Our minds, formed and informed by their radiance, fall away. We are not so much maddened as reduced to the unutterable ignorance of dark, cold caves. . And when great souls die, after a period peace blooms, slowly and always irregularly. Spaces fill with a kind of soothing electric vibration. Our senses, restored, never to be the same, whisper to us. They existed. They existed. We can be. Be and be better. For they existed. . ― Maya Angelou “When Great Trees Fall” . . . 6 months since you’ve been gone and all I can do is remind myself (via the brilliant Maya Angelou) that I am better because you and your great soul existed. I miss you everyday. Some days are better than others. But some days I don’t even want to get out of bed and put pants on. This entire week has been the latter. But somehow, I’ve found strength in these words. Somehow, I will keep moving forward. Thinking of you, always❣️ #allforP #all4P #adventuresforP

Appreciating this stained glass view of a cotton candy sky || I made this stained glass piece last year at @colorsofglass - highly recommend for anyone in or near the Philly area! Small classes, pick all glass onsite, all other materials (aside from glass) are included in the class price. This was an insane lesson in patience and trying to let go (well, sorta... emphasis on TRYING) of my overthinking perfectionist tendencies when it comes to creating. . . . . . . . #mindfulliz #mindfulart #art #artstagram #artist #artislife #artwork #arttherapy #create #createdtocreate #createexplore #createcultivate #createcreatecreate #creativebaltimore #baltimoreart #baltimoreartist #philly #philadelphia #phillyart #phillyarts #stainedglass #stainedglassart #stainedglasswindow #stainedglassartist #stainedglassstudio #stainedglassdesign #stainedglasssuncatcher #stainedglasspanel #stainedglasswork #tastemademedoit

For a while now, I’ve been interested in trying glycerites and other tinctures as an alternative to supplements in pill form. Glycerites are herbal tinctures that are in a vegetable glycerine solution rather than alcohol. They also taste A LOT better than alcohol based tinctures. . I started taking a milk thistle glycerite for liver support and then BAM — @organic_olivia dropped this incredible line of tinctures. Each one has a specific purpose and I was so excited, I had to try them all... The herbal first aid kit 🌿💚 . . . . . . . #mindfulliz #mindfulmood #goodmoodfood #adaptogens #herbs #medicinalherbs #medicinalplants #herbalmedicine #herbalism #apotionaday #feedyourgut #feedyourbrain #gutbrainconnection #mindfulness #mindfulnessmatters #foodforlife #health #healthiswealth #mindbodygram #iamwellandgood

Thank you for the reminder @justpeachycomic . . #mentalhealthawareness #mindfulliz #mindfulnessmatters

To say that “life’s been hard” since the loss of a best friend would be a huge understatement. But I know she wouldn’t want anyone to stop living their life in her absence. Each day I face a new challenge. Each day I see, hear, or do something (multiple things) that reminds me of her. And each day I have to take a few moments to stop, breathe, and listen to my heart. It’s broken... that is the reality. And I know it will stay that way for a long time. But I also know that I can find some comfort in caring for everyone else that loved her. In giving love to this group, I receive that love in return. This is what will keep me moving forward. This is what is going to remind me to LIVE❤️ . . . . . . . #allforP #adventuresforP #mindfulliz #mindfulart #art #artstagram #artist #artislife #arttherapy #create #createdtocreate #createexplore #createcultivate #createcreatecreate #baltimoreartist #grief #griefandloss #griefandhealing #griefsupport #griefjourney #griefsucks #captureyourgrief
