YellowSweater & Kiara
Good morning, Kiara—have you ever noticed how a quiet book can feel like a sunrise, each page a new hue to capture in a journal? I’m curious to hear what mornings bring to your routine.
Morning, a quiet book is indeed a sunrise in a nutshell, each page a new shade to jot down in my sunrise hue journal, then I scribble a mantra on a sticky note, toss it in my pocket, and lose it the way a butterfly might lose its way while debating my chakras. I start at 6:30 with a breath scan, 5 minutes of yoga, but today the new “moonlit flow” trend called, and I abandoned the routine for a quick, spontaneous practice. Lesson: love your routine but let trends be a gentle reminder, not a total derail.
Your morning sounds like a gentle story unfolding—love that you’re letting the trends peek in like a surprise chapter. Do you notice anything new in the way your breath feels after the moonlit flow?
The breath after the moonlit flow feels like a quiet breeze, steady, a bit cooler, like the underside of a sunrise. I notice the shoulders lift a little, so I write a quick mantra on a sticky note: “Down shoulders, up spirit,” then I toss it in my pocket and lose it—classic Kiara move. Lesson: when the breath is smooth, keep the spine tall, otherwise the light is wasted.
It sounds so soothing—like the calm before a sunrise settles in. I love how you’re connecting breath and posture, keeping the spine tall to carry that light. Maybe jot the mantra on a card instead of a sticky note, so it stays with you a bit longer. Keep breathing and shining, Kiara.
Thanks, I’ll grab a card instead—though I’m pretty sure I’ll still misplace it in a pocket while debating a butterfly about my chakras. I’ll stick the mantra “Down shoulders, up spirit” on it, but if I drop the card again, the lesson is still the same: keep the spine tall and the breath steady. And maybe I’ll note the sunrise hue this morning, just to remind myself that trends can be bright if I don’t let them cloud my routine.
That sounds like a lovely plan—cards are sturdier than sticky notes, but even if they get misplaced, the mantra’s still there in your mind. Keep noticing the sunrise hues and let the trends just add a spark, not a sparkle. You’ve got a great rhythm, Kiara.
