Travel expands the perspective of the human mind and inspires the human heart. Whether by near or far, consider exploring a new space this week and open your plans to the unfamiliar. Slow down in the unknown and give ear to your inner Voice. Chances are high for refreshed creativity, focus, and a greater sense of self. Photo by yours truly from an afternoon at @scribewinery last Autumn. It was our first time visiting and made the choice to go on a whim. Simple, elegant, and memorable time with dear friends. #inspiratherapy

Truth for the weary and the strong - we all need the courage to step into our stories, to show up, and to be brave. Scholar Bren茅 Brown continues to inspire us as she pioneers research on vulnerability, courage, shame, and worthiness. 馃挮

mindfulness: find a comfortable seated position. take a deep breath. inhale. exhale. consider all the items on your to-do list, all the responsibilities to which you need to tend...list them out in your mind. when your list is complete, set it aside, out of your mind's eye, knowing it will be right where you left it when you return. enter into an empty space, where you are free, your heart is light, and you feel the support of the earth beneath you. dwell here with no pressure to be anyone else or anywhere else right now. you are here. in this moment, you are enough. you are supported. you are enough. inhale. exhale. inhale. exhale. move your awareness to your identity, given by your Creator. focus on your true worth. you were made to love and be loved. you are strong, you are beautiful, you are capable. you are equipped with grace, you are gifted with pardon for your mistakes. you are desirable, you are celebrated by the angels, you are blessed because of Jesus finished work on the cross. be still and listen to the truth. repeat this truth to yourself once more, interchanging "you" for "I", claiming it as your own. inhale. exhale. [close your eyes. sit in stillness for a few minutes] awaken your senses to your surroundings by opening your eyes, slowly moving your fingers and toes, taking a deep breath in. as you breathe in, breathe in the love of God, breathe out the peace of God. breathe in the love of God, breathe out the peace of God. dear one, you are valued. you are not bound by your responsibilities, but rather, you are equipped to show up and do them well. you are an awesome you, and i hope you can revel in that today. 馃檹 namaste. photo by @readtealeaves. #inspiratherapy

houseplants not only serve a decorative purpose, they purify the air too. aloe, english ivy, peace lily, and philodendron are some of my top picks. thanks for an informative article and photo, @huffingtonpost. #inspiratherapy

"Maturity starts with the willingness to give oneself." -e.e. Dwelling on these well-spoken words from Elisabeth Elliot. It seems that there are many ideas of what maturity, in terms of reaching adulthood or knowing thyself, really is. I believe Elisabeth's take on it. Whether you give your listening ear, sound counsel, a kind smile, a lifting word, a peaceful truth, patience in waiting, quick wit, complete forgiveness, a glimpse of hope, or contagious laugh, giving is where you will find purpose. #inspiratherapy

oh the joy of waking well. starting the day in a slow pace with coffee and time with the hubs. be generous and intentional about beginning the day on a healthy note (in mind, body, and spirit). it looks different for all of us. your time may be outside with the paper, another's may be snuggled in on the couch with the bible. your time may include a baby in your arms, another's may be playing fetch with a furry friend. whatever it looks like, try to make T I M E to orient and center yourself in the morning. photo: the ever-inspiring @mamawatters #inspiratherapy
