Creative Self Care with Crystal McLain

Everywhere we look, we are constantly being told what to do, and I fucking hate it. ...I absolutely hate it.  Sometimes the messages are obnoxiously loud and clear, but sometimes they are very subtle, which, somehow, makes them more convincing.  But despite their delivery, they end up crowding our heads and make it harder to see our own truth.

Well, in today’s post we’re going to discuss why so much of self care feels burdensome, and go over a few tricks so we can take back our power and take good care of ourselves....

In my previous blogcast we dove deep into the ins and outs of manifestation. What it is, what it isn’t, how to do it, and a bunch of tips for making it stick.  And because I love you, I’m gotta get real with you… Sometimes our manifestations just don’t pan out.  And that can feel like an epic bummer.  Well, in today’s blogcast we’re gonna talk about what to do should your manifestation fizzle. We’ll find a way to get a second chance, how to reignite your inspiration, and, at the very least, we’ll learn how to turn this giant...
