Where are you on the feelings wheel today? 🤔

The image shows a pillow with a colorful “Feelings Wheel” printed on it. The wheel is a tool often used in therapy to help people identify and articulate their emotions more precisely.

You aren't poor because another poor person came to your country. You re poor because rich people exploit your labor.

You DESERVE rest. Rest is resistance to the constant grind of daily life and societal expectations. 🙌 When I saw this little book at Charis Books, I just had to get it! #rest #resist #napministry #charisbooks
The image shows a person holding a hardcover book titled We Will Rest! The Art of Escape by Tricia Hersey. The book cover is deep purple with gold lettering and decorative elements, including a constellation-like pattern. The spine and part of the cover are a contrasting golden-yellow color. The author’s name is prominently displayed, noting that she is a New York Times bestselling author of Rest Is Resistance. The person holding the book has a black sleeve visible and is wearing nail polish with a gradient effect transitioning from dark blue to silver. The background consists of a paved walkway or brick path. The image shows an open book with a page containing a large, artistic black calligraphic letter “L” at the top. Below it, there is a passage affirming the reader’s worth and encouraging rest, not as a means to be more productive but as a divine right. The text urges the reader to take a break, lay down, or daydream after reading. A purple ribbon bookmark is visible along the left edge. The lighting is soft and natural, and the background is a neutral surface. The image shows a close-up of a book page with a passage discussing the effects of grind culture on imagination, self-worth, and exhaustion. The text critiques the belief that worthiness comes from burnout and encourages focusing on escape and transformation. The passage ends with an affirmation of freedom: “You can be free. You are free.”

This is your mission. We take our power back now at the local and state level. Stop waiting for a national hero. It’s you. Get to work.

Don't know who said it first but it bears repeating—if you really don't think what Musk repeatedly did was a Nazi salute, please record yourself doing that exact thing and post it across all social media, and make sure your employer sees it.

Oh...is that awkward gesture too much now? Interesting.

How are you honoring this holiday? 💜 I encourage you to do more than simply post a MLK quote and call it a day.

Here are 2 action items I plan on doing. Add your fav businesses/accounts. 🙌
#MLKday #supportblackbusiness #amplifyblackvoices #blackowned #buyblack #racialjustice #equalityforall
The image features a black background with white text that reads: “MLK Jr. Day.” Below the title, there is a thin gold line, followed by additional text that says: “Show your support today by:” Two bullet points are listed underneath: 1. Following black-owned accounts 2. Donating to black-owned businesses

Everyone is posting about the Tik-Tok notice but I don’t see many about Cap Cut. Received this message and glad to see no mention of DJT (who, by the way, wanted the ban back in 2020)
The image shows a pop-up message from the CapCut app stating that it is unavailable in the U.S. due to a law banning the service. The message assures users that CapCut is working to restore access.

This is easier said than done sometimes. 😬 What are some of your night-time practices that help with sleep?

One suggestion: give yourself adequate time for your nightly routine. I prefer an hour!

{Image description: A card with a textured green blanket in the background. The card displays the following text: “Using technology right before bed can impact sleep. What do you usually do half an hour before going to bed?”}

Something to remember as we start on resolutions. Routines are created through day to day consistency. Keep moving forward, even when you slip.

A teal square with the text: ‘Be patient and remind yourself that big things are achieved not all at once, but day by day.’ Below the text is the NAMI logo, which stands for the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
