My Story
Beloved fellow travelers on this magnificent journey we call life, I'm writing this with tears of gratitude streaming down my face, because what I'm about to share with you literally pulled me back from the brink of spiritual, emotional, and physical collapse. Six weeks ago, I was a shell of my former self, completely depleted from launching my organic dog clothing line, 'Pawsitive Vibrations.' What started as a passion project to dress rescue dogs in ethically-sourced, chakra-aligned outfits had become a 80-hour-per-week nightmare that left me questioning everything I thought I knew about purpose, success, and the meaning of existence itself.
I remember the exact moment everything shifted. It was 2:47 AM on a Tuesday (I know because I was obsessively tracking my sleep patterns on seven different apps), and I was hunched over my laptop, trying to respond to a customer complaint about how our 'Third Eye Chakra Collar' wasn't opening their Pomeranian's spiritual gifts fast enough. My eyes were burning, my back ached from months of terrible posture, and I hadn't eaten anything but adaptogenic smoothies and stress-induced tears for approximately 72 hours.
Sacred Ingredients
- 💕1 package of instant ramen (any flavor that calls to your soul)
- 💕2 cups of water (filtered with intention)
- 💕1 microwave-safe bowl (ceramic holds energy best)
- 💕The humility to accept imperfection
- 💕Permission to find comfort in simplicity
- 💕3 minutes of complete surrender to the process
Mindful Instructions
Place the ramen noodles in your microwave-safe bowl with reverence for their journey to you.
Add water while setting the intention to receive exactly what you need in this moment.
Microwave for 3 minutes. Use this time to practice presence and let go of control.
When the microwave beeps, take a deep breath before opening the door.
Carefully remove the bowl and add the seasoning packet with gratitude.
Stir gently, watching the broth transform, just as you are transforming.
Eat slowly, tasting not just sodium and preservatives, but pure acceptance of your human needs.
