Body LOOOOVEEE (TW: Body Image discussion) Loving my own body has been a long and hard journey, but I’m happy to say I’m finally loving it. Every part of it. So I wanted to talk about this print a little bit and what it means to me. This piece was inspired through my own personal journey with body dysmorphia. I had a really hard time seeing myself, the way I actually was, and then once I was able to do that I had the hardest time loving myself the way I was. I wanted to see my real physical body through a beautiful lense, as that is what each of our physical bodies are; beautiful. So I created this image, curves, hips, uneven breasts and all as an appreciation to all of our physical bodies. In whatever form they come. A simple reminder to see beauty in all of it. Because that is what human bodies are: Beautiful ✨✨ I’ve finally updated the shop to include a few prints & this one is now available! #lovemybody #bodyart (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CplONxHvIlZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Community Matters. It does. But not in the way society tells us it does. Community does not have to be genetic. And community can change as you evolve and change yourself to understand your soul. A common theme I’ve found is the guilt and shame people hold when they start to understand their soul more and they realize they don’t “fit in” with society or their family or their previous friend group, relationships etc. but honey. You fit in just fine, right here. If your community does not uplift your soul, support changes or validate unlearning (in all of the forms that it comes), you should not ever feel guilty or shame in leaving. You deserve happiness. You deserve support. And you deserve community. A true one, that loves you unconditionally. It can be a lonely journey learning about your self & soul. But it also is such a rewarding one. Community doesn’t have to be a whole bunch of people either. It can be 1 or 2 other souls. And even if you do feel physically alone, Spirit has always got you 💙 Sending love to all of your beautiful and bright souls ✨ #2slgbtqia #community (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CocjdNFOuKL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Inner peace is something I’m learning a lot about. No matter what, someone will always have something to say. NO MATTER WHAT trust me 😂🙃 And I’ve found the only way to work through this is to stay true to myself. My soul. When I stay true to my soul I find myself operating out of compassion and love, operating with the intention to help myself & therefore others. And I am able to find peace in myself, no matter what any one else thinks. Because they still will. Do it for yourself. #illustration #prosepoetry #healing (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnxf8CTvwxL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A big lesson I'm learning recently. Words can be comforting. Words can also be harmful. Even if that wasn't our intention. Sometimes, the best thing to do is simply offer a safe space without judgement, and an open minded ear to listen 🫶 You never know the difference you can make in someone's life simply by listening. ✨✨✨ On a side note, I've committed myself to 4 hours of silence for 7 days and today was my first day. *writing this post silence* And I can tell you already first hand, listening goes way farther than responding 💙 #learning #growth #art (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnm_uFBPOyb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Think with your head not your heart” If I had a dollar for every time that’s been said to me I’d be on some island lounging right now. Just Kidding, butttt also not really. Let’s break this phrase down for a sec. I get the idea, think logically not emotionally. REACTIVE EMOTIONS THOUGH! And these reactive emotions do come from our fight or flight reactions when we feel we are in danger. The issue is, when we have trauma (which all of us do because honey there is no way of escaping some form of trauma in this world 💙) but this trauma causes us to go into fight or flight when we are actually safe. So no we can’t act off of these reactive emotions. As someone who has been diagnosed with BPD believe me I get that what I’m saying is a FUCKING hard feat. BUT let’s break down the logic part now, and this is where I disagree. When we only act off of logic, we are completely ignoring our heart centres desires. Logic is based off of societal beliefs and values. Society created what is logical and what isn’t. Which is against what we as humans have always been meant to do. Love, spread love, be loved! Don’t get me wrong this is no love and light post, quite the opposite. Because working through the trauma and quieting the logic “anxiety”, and listening to the true desires of your heart “soul” is going against society, but IS the path to happiness. And we all know you can’t feel happiness without feeling and working through the ‘darkness’. So the next time you find yourself trying to make ‘logical’ sense out of a decision stop and get in tune with your heart and soul and ask yourself what it is you truly want. #illustration #heartcentred #spiritualawakening #spiritualgrowth #mentalhealth #mindfulnessmonday (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnMw09eufRi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I used to be someone who understood the power we all held within ourselves. Over time, that understanding became smaller and smaller; pushed out by the ‘norms’ of society; or rather being guilted by others that my understanding impeded on their ability to live. I’m here to tell you, I’ve found that understanding again, and you can too. ✨ It’s okay to know that everything is okay even when it seems like the world is burning from the outside in. ✨ It’s okay to recognize that we only use 10% of our brains’ capacity and the world we know is such a small part of it. ✨ It’s okay to not want to be apart of the hustle/9-5 culture because you KNOW there’s more. There is more. The point of life isn’t money and greed and riches. If your understanding of spirituality stops at manifesting money, honey I’m here to tell you you’ve got it all wrong. Money is a distraction and you are a player in the game. Everything you need is already within you, and if it’s not it can be naturally found on this Earth. For “The power of your mind is where it’s at my dear. You hold the world at your fingertips.” You control your reality, so go make it happen. *and remember growth doesn’t happen without growing pains* ✨✨ All this is said with an understanding that there are certain systems of oppression that make this hard. I’m more so talking about those choices we CAN make. #spirituality #spiritualhealing #growth #awakening #manifestation #illustration (at Ontario, Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnHpld_u1y3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Because we shouldn't have to. Because it normalizes one vs. The other. Because everything SHOULD be normal. Because everything IS normal. Who you are IS normal. -- Lately I've found in personal experience & in media, if you don't come out publicly, you aren't valid. If you don't 'look' queer enough (whatever the FUCK that means), you are actively not welcomed within your community. Or if you choose not to label yourself with one of the letters specifically, for some reason that's being judged upon? Let's change this. You don't need to come out to be valid. You don't need to look a specific way to be valid. You don't need to label yourself to be valid. And you can explore & can change who you are. It's okay to grow, and it's okay to not officially 'come out' every damn time! It's okay to just live 💙 -maja ✨✨ #queerart #comingout #2slgbtqia #art #beyourself #ontarioartist #queer #comingoutstory #genderfluid #inspiring #queerartists (at Guelph, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmH02S0PcJT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
