Sweet to Me: Loving Yourself When They Giving Bare Minimum

When your partner’s energy starts feeling like “bare minimum” love what do you do? In this episode of Confessions of a Trap Yogi, I keep it all the way real about what it means to be sweet to yourself when the love you’re getting feels half-hearted.

From reclaiming your sensuality to setting emotional boundaries, this one’s for the woman who’s tired of pouring from an empty cup and ready to taste her own sweetness again.

It’s part meditation, part confession, and full-on reminder that you are the sugar, not the side dish.

Press play, light a candle, and remember you don’t have to beg for the energy you deserve.

Peace Over Payroll (At least for 10 minutes) Meditation

If your body’s tired, your inbox is full, and your paycheck still ain’t adding up — this one’s for you.

“Peace Over Payroll” is a 10-minute midweek reset for anyone who’s been grinding non-stop, giving their all, and wondering when the return’s gonna match the effort. It’s not about quitting your job (yet 😏) it’s about reclaiming your energy, realigning your habits, and remembering that your worth runs deeper than your workload.

Together, we’ll breathe, reflect, and check ourselves — not out of shame, but out of clarity. Because if your week’s been out of alignment, you still got time to pivot. You still got time to choose peace, presence, and purpose over the pressure.

Press play, breathe deep, and remind yourself: your peace is your real paycheck.

 “I return to myself with softness.”

Be Drama Free

Care like I imagined how you doin it damnit!

Ok...It's been some time. I'm not in a good mood. I'm not in a good mood because I'm in my thoughts about what folks should do, how they should do it and what it means when they don't. Learning how to stay in my lane can drive me insane. Being mindful IS NOT a walk in the park and if it was it would be a park with broken glass, random stray dogs and I don't have on any shoes LOL. It isn't easy being breezy. 

This come back episode is just me confessing what it feels like to be honest about my expectations of others. My feelings get hurt when folks don't read the imaginary script I wrote for their role in my head. HOW DARE THEY! 

Ultimately I get to the conclusion that I'm either jealous our lonely believing thoughts that are hurtful more easily than thoughts that aren't. The mind is a circus so no wonder I think everyone in front of me is a clown.

Guided Meditation for Peace in Parenting
I confess. I was a mess recording this meditation. I've been embarrassed to admit I'm not the best mom and I've struggled with using my practice to parent better. There I said it. The hardest part of being a parent and yogi is the guilt and shame of not being good at breathing and using the practice in my home. Resentment is real. This is my way of opening up and claiming freedom from the idea that I need to be perfect...I just need a wish to grow in my parenting so that I can be a better mom and raise mindful human beings.

Smile & Be Happy Meditation

Feelings...we can get in them, they can control us. But what happens when you decide to not let your heart get highjacked? I'm stubborn on any day ending with "day", so when I'm in my hurt feelings and bad thoughts I stay there on purpose even when I know how to get out of them. People tell you to smile it will be better. The truth is...it will be better if you smile or don't smile. The real invitation is to lessen your suffering by gifting yourself some practical peace. Choosing to be happy is a practice. Enjoy.
