the heart whispers

by

2020 has been life changing + (by far) my favorite year yet. a wild ride brimming with twists + turns + transformations that led me down roads i only dreamed of walking in this lifetime.


i witnessed miracles manifest before my eyes + restored my faith in god.


i got brutally honest with myself + everyone around me.


my heart awakened + experienced new levels of love as i outgrew old relationships no longer aligned with my highest self.


i learned the importance of honoring my needs + shutting down the mind-numbing noise from the outside world.


i abandoned worn out belief systems rooted in fear + worldly expectations placed upon me by society.


unexpected gifts from god showed up on my doorstep.


kindred spirits disguised as total strangers appeared in my life out of “nowhere” + immediately felt like family.


i danced (a lot) + discovered bliss in every single hip roll + booty shake.


i befriended my shadow + made peace with my past.


i laughed more than ever. mostly at myself.


i prayed + played daily.


i made friends with wild animals in my backyard + fell in love with a stray kitten after she showed up at the back door. i now call her baby girl.


most significantly, i set myself free by remembering who i am + why i’m here. that’s when life changed for me on a cellular level.


it’s never too late to uncover your divine purpose + reach new realms of consciousness. forever sending love + freedom to every creature on earth.

worship your wild

by

if you are done playing by the rules.

if you are tired of being told what to wear,

how to feel & who to hate. if you refuse to

fit into a box of expectations & ultimatums.

if you’ve ever been asked to dim your light

by those afraid of their own shadow.

if you shun shame to revel in sensuality.

if you reject man made beliefs rooted in fear.

if you’ve grown weary of judgement & disdain.

if you are willing to disappoint another to

be true to yourself. if you no longer need

anyone’s permission to live life on your terms.

if you stopped pretending to be someone 

you’re not.if you have nothing left to prove.

if you ache to express your dazzling soul 

& celebrate your magic without apology. 

if you dare to worship your wild &

boldly wear freedom like feathers. 

if you seek truth & nothing but the truth.

if you bow in gratitude to the great 

mystery & trust your own inner knowing.

take my hand. cuz we’re dancing naked

‘round the fire, awakening our shakti &

burning this motherfuckin’ guilt to the ground.

Blackberry & Peanut Butter Oatmeal

by

This cold(ish)+cloudy weather calls for warm+nourishing foods, so this past weekend, I pulled out the crockpot to make a batch of slow cooker oats with blackberry compote for some tangy sweetness and crunchy peanut butter to add texture+flavor.

Slow Cooker Oats with Blackberry Compote + Peanut Butter (Serves 3-4)

Ingredients

1 cup steel cut oats

4.5 cups water

4 cups blackberries (fresh or frozen)

2 tbs. coconut sugar or pure maple syrup

crunchy peanut butter

Blackberry Compote

Place blackberries and sugar in saucepan. Bring to a light boil, cover with lid and simmer on low for 15 minutes.

Oatmeal

Place oats + water in crockpot and cook for 4 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low. Add blackberry compote + peanut butter to oats. Enjoy!

be your own authority

by

don’t mince your words or hide your magic to avoid criticism. don’t lower your vibration or water yourself down to obtain praise. these wasted efforts will dull your shine and disconnect you from your highest self. step into your power and walk with purpose. you came here to express yourself as only you can do.

come back

by

remember how much fun you had when you were young & fearless? before they told you to grow up and get a real job. before worries and responsibilities and expectations and appointments decorated your days.

remember when you knew how to play and dream and make a fool of yourself without a single iota of concern about what other people think of you? before you were stripped of your innocence.

remember when you laughed until your belly ached? when you loved life and it loved you right back.

remember the first time you fell in love? when you believed you were worthy of unconditional adoration. before you tasted heartache and pain.

remember when you loved your body and felt no need to alter it or amplify it or hide it away from the world? when your existence alone was absolute perfection.

that wild and brilliantly peculiar creature you left behind all those years ago is the real you. before the world hardened you with its wicked ways and asked you to sell your soul in exchange for a piece of poison pie.

come back to yourself and who you were born to be. it’s never too late to return to innocence and that achingly beautiful soul of yours. come home to yourself. we await your return with open arms, my love. come back.

XO, zella (come back)

release & rise

by


we have been taught to stay in places we don’t belong. to tolerate abuse & call it loyalty. to sacrifice happiness in the name of love. to give up our dreams for soul-crushing comfort. to lower our standards for those who refuse to rise up & meet us where we are. to abandon our own needs for the sake of goodwill. to dumb down our spiritual genius for those who have not yet recognized their own.

but we are waking up. we are remembering who we are & discovering our true strength. we are saying no where we once said yes & saying yes where we once said no. we are drinking from the well of wisdom & bathing in a river of truth. we are walking away from turmoil & embarking on a path of peace. we are choosing love & ONLY love. 

xo, zella

surrender

by

your highest self is calm. ego has no chill.

your highest self has nothing to prove. ego uses comparisons to measure its worth.

your highest self operates from a place of wisdom. ego seeks knowledge from external sources.

your highest self is a sage. ego is a wounded child searching for approval.

your highest self is honest. ego concocts stories of shame, guilt, blame and self doubt.

your highest self is who you are at the core. ego struggles to impress others and complies to society’s expectations.

your highest self surrenders to each moment and trusts divine timing. ego employs control and manipulation to fulfill its desires.

your highest self radiates love. ego subsists in fear.

you are your highest self.

5D consciousness

by

the 3 dimensional world is crumbling before our eyes as we shatter fear based realities built on greed and deceit.

we are releasing outdated belief systems and birthing a new earth rooted in truth.

we are stepping out of the shadows and becoming the light.

we are losing our identity and finding our purpose.

we are replacing shallow affairs with genuine connection.

we are canceling corruption and endorsing honest conversation.

we are trading hidden agendas for pure intentions.

we are renouncing prestige and embracing our true nature.

we are quashing man made rules and trusting our own instincts.

we are relinquishing blame and taking responsibility for our own actions.

we are returning to innocence and rising to higher levels of consciousness where freedom and love prevail.

we are reclaiming our genius and honoring the highest self.

we are sovereign of our own existence.
