Action Items For the Start of Autumn
We recently asked our followers on Instagram: "What would you like to see more of, or learn about?" We got ONE response! Please send us feedback if you have it! We love to hear from our community.
You can reply directly to this email: helloterraincognita@gmail.com (whether love letters or constructive criticism, we welcome it all!)
Here’s what we recommend:
Drink water
Sleep
Breathe
Heal

Therapy if that feels right to you.
Stop comparing yourself to other people on instagram and irl.
Balance your drive for change with taking care of your internal world: we can’t heal or help without healing and helping ourselves at the same time - it’s a never ending dynamic process but they must happen simultaneously otherwise nothing will get done.
Invest in non toxic relationships.
If you are white talk compassionately with family and friends about whiteness and racism. Be compassionate to heal ancestral cycles of abuse.
Reject white supremacy culture as you’re working to expose it and heal from it. Try not to recreate it as you work.
Never forget that you are not alone. We got this and we can build the world we want to see.
When anxiety overwhelms you about the terrifying state of the world look to the groups and people who are still fighting, still loving, still going, still living, still exuding life and vitality.
We are in unprecedented times and it’s okay to not feel strong sometimes. It’s okay to feel scared.
We are in this together. We are here for each other. When you feel alone remember this. And remember the first action items and take them seriously. Rinse and repeat.
