hey, brookie dough.

the community card in the UPRISING inner sanctum the other day was “smooth & easy,” from the oracle of e deck by pam grout & colette baron-reid

i intended to share some of our convo with you today, but instead the following came out. may it find you if it was meant for you

xxoo, cc

what's YOUR relationship with smooth + easy?

is it something you yearn for, or does it make you feel like you haven’t earned what it is that you want?

does it make you nervous — stuck in wait of that other cute shoe dropping, or does it feel more like the sweetest scratch-off ticket win ever?

do you trust smooth + easy?

are you afraid of it?

what would your days look like if you invited, welcomed + wholeheartedly embraced smooth + easy in?

what if you threw it an impromptu party EVERY TIME it popped in?

and i know… you might have a voice chiming in with some version of the following right now:

you know what? EFF smooth + easy. smooth & easy blocks all my damn calls. all i can get a hold of is difficult AF. i’m done even trying with smooth & easy

i know it sounds privileged + naive to talk about inviting ease in when life is riddled with challenges

i’m not claiming that all it takes is opening up to ease. just that it’s a start

don’t be the one who NEVER asks for help + expects everyone to magically be able to say YES when you finally do

just because you’re ready doesn’t mean you’re owed what it is you finally asked for — from people OR the universe or whatever spiritual force resonates for you

there’s a lot more going on in this world than you + your one request, and whether you get what you want or not, it doesn’t say a damn thing about the value of asking for it, or how much you do or don’t deserve it

because spoiler alert:

we ALL deserve smooth & easy

because we’re all doing the best we can

be brave enough to get comfortable with asking for + NOT receiving

not yet, not the way you thought you wanted it, not where you expected to find it

let go of the latent fear that you’re not worthy if you don’t get it

and quit expecting immediate results just because you finally graced the universe with your request

you DO deserve it. sometimes shit just takes time
