Let the Sun Shine

February 26, 2022March 6, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Your warm embrace All my painful memories erasedYou hold me, ever present The old me wasn’t present But now I’m sustained Purely by the shine of your rays

If you can’t keep up maybe you’re not supposed to

February 24, 2022March 6, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Slowing down No longer living with expectations Chasing after shoulds Doing it because they are Because they “can” Not that I ever know their behind the scenes What works for me? What is sustainable? What speaks to me? What matches my inner truth?

Good Morning! Wait, What?! It’s 3 am!

February 22, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

I put the water bottle in her room so she wouldn’t ask for it at 3 am like the night before. I thought I had it made. “I’m gonna sleep like a baby tonight!” Nope. Faint words began to interrupt my dream. Moments later, I’m up. She didn’t need more water this time, she needed … Continue reading Good Morning! Wait, What?! It’s 3 am!

Parenting Pressure Cooker

February 21, 2022February 21, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

I like taking life experiences and writing about them in a way that is empowering.But that’s not always possible.Sometimes, life is just hard. Almost every time I break my bedtime (yes I have one), either my lovely child wakes me up in the middle of the night and/or my racing mind. Being a parent has … Continue reading Parenting Pressure Cooker

Giving From Your Core

February 18, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

This morning, my plastic fork broke while I was cutting my avocado toast. The forks at work are pretty hardy plastic and this is the first time this has happened. It was a reminder that when giving is from a place of overextension, we are bound to crack. Whilst giving from our core—from our hearts, … Continue reading Giving From Your Core

When Anxiety Gets the Best of Me

February 17, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Finally took a pause. You would think starting my day off with a self-love guided meditation, that it was going to go swimmingly. Well, not exactly. Seems like having a day off, my mind is on, on, on. Addressing things, some more important than others, stressing over details, bathing myself in negative forecasting, when what … Continue reading When Anxiety Gets the Best of Me

Friendly Reminders for When Your Day Gets off to a Rough Start

February 15, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

If your day gets off to a rough start, remember: 1) We are all under construction—and if you’re like that building across from my daughter’s school, it can take a while. We are all just works in progress, growing brick by brick. 2) A bad morning can fuel a lovely afternoon jog or inspire a … Continue reading Friendly Reminders for When Your Day Gets off to a Rough Start

Love Is in the Air

February 14, 2022February 14, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Cherish the relationship you have. And if you think you don’t have one, think again, cuz we are all in a relationship with ourselves. But if you are like me, self-love doesn't come easy. And living in a culture that cultivates being saved by another doesn't help! My journey in self-love had its beginnings in … Continue reading Love Is in the Air

Stumbling Through

February 13, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ 1 Comment

I wake up everyday with this sort of amnesia. Thoughts running through my mind. To-do lists draped across my heart. I am bewildered, beset by concerns. It’s not as if I have conquered my previous 35 years of life’s challenges-—some minor, some more severe. That track record is nowhere to be found. And so, every … Continue reading Stumbling Through

Stretching Wrings Out Stress

February 8, 2022 ~ Gila Daman ~ Leave a comment

Today was a very special morning! I got to do all my stretches! With having to get to work some mornings and having to wake up for my child on the others ones, I barely have enough time in the morning to stretch! I have an abbreviated version of course. But, It. Is. Not. The. … Continue reading Stretching Wrings Out Stress
