it’s the way we wash our dishes
Tending to our wellbeing isn’t grand and doesn’t magically happen during a one-time sound bath. Tending to self, caring for self, loving self doesn’t click all at once. It is a dance of continuity— pausing, adjusting, changing course and tempo. It is a practice we show up to, day after day. It is oftentimes boring and endlessly unsexy. It is what we do right before bed and how we respond in a challenging conversation. Tending to self lives in our self-talk and the quality of our relationships. It is how we fuel our bodies and minds and how we move through the world. As my favorite college professor said, “mindfulness is how we wash the dishes”.
Showing up to self, which subsequently helps us show up to others and our world, happens little by little, by building familiarity in the body.
Which is why I created a calendar that has one tiny thing to do each day for the entire 365 days of 2026.

one tiny thing
In the name of approachable, simple and unglamorous, you will find prompts ranging from: “sing or hum along to a song today” (this is amazing for our nervous systems YES singing is therapeutic) to “give yourself a belly massage before bed today” (how can we create safety with this part of the body?) to “what is your relationship to pleasure?” (think about it, talk about it!) to “clean your water bottle” (that black crust isn’t going to clean itself, babe).
just….do it?
If there is anything I’ve learned from existing on the internet for many years, it is that if you have an idea or want to do something, you should just fucking do it. In 2018, I was talking my same talk- listen to your inner voice, experiment with play and self care, keep creating, move the body, nourish yourself- and I created a watercolor “self care guide” that I shared just because I wanted to. I posted on IG and on a blog in 2017/2018 just because it was a form of expression. By the way, it can always be just because- we place so much meaning on everything- let it be just because. Fast forward to today, this calendar is a grown up version of what my 24 year old self was already doing.
If you have an idea, or want to put something into the world- you really should just go for it. If people judge you, you will survive. If you judge yourself, you will survive. If something feels good to create, and fills you up- genuinely, why aren’t you doing it?
Take away the pressure and just start somewhere. Two years ago this idea floated in my mind, finally this past summer I reached out to the brilliant Steph to get the ball rolling. Steph has perfectly embodied the themes of each month and her graphics will inspire something in you, I am sure of it. Reach out to her for your next band poster, t-shirt dream, zine, e-book, you name it. Her eye is unmatched and she is meticulous in her process. ILY Steph!
