January 2022 – Playlist 🎧 + Monthly Life Update ✍🏼

 

Happy New Year 2022 everyone!

Please, start playing January’s playlist in order to feel the mood🙂

How where your Christmas holidays?

Christmas Tree, beginning to be destroyed by that cute angel and her brothers.
 
Whenever we think about December, it’s almost impossible to keep our minds away from Christmas, am I right? Well, I guess not everyone celebrates Christmas, but the Holiday season is something that has come to stay.
 
 
December was a month of getting back to the calm after the storm for me. I could finally process both of my cat’s deaths (one in October, the other in November). Cocotte was extremely needy after we arrived from the last week of the tour.

I left her alone in the house for the first time in her life. I can’t even imagine how that felt to her. She was so used to being surrounded by other cats that it must have been hard on her.
 
Salad egg and pommegranate
 
When I arrived I couldn’t even get up early. Well, early for me isn’t probably early for everyone. I mean waking up at 5:30. 8:00 is my new 6:00. But it’s changing lately. I’m back on track in many things. I let them come at their own rhythm, not forcing anything.
 
coffee at mccafe and doughnut holes
 
Grief is something curious. Even though I know it has its purpose, it feels so heavy that, even being a very positive person, it gets too hard sometimes.
 
tacos
 
This year was charged with grief and death for me.
 
cacao, carrot cake and a book about the life of Camille Claudel
 
This tour I told a story before the last song we played in the concerts. I talked about death and how “En un momento” was a very meaningful song for me and it was even more meaningful this year. That song talks about getting up even when your brain tells you not to. Feeling lost and finding a way out of that feeling. Rising up against all odds. I added it to last month’s playlist for that same reason.

I thought it was a very powerful message to end the year.
 
spirulina waffles with tomatoes and hazelnuts
 
But it’s a new year now, and that means a fresh start. I think I’ve probably said I love new starts. I love how we get chances to start anew every year, every month, every week, every day, every morning, every hour… Life is full of chances to live. And I do love that feeling.
 
Kombucha La Valiente
 
I am those who plan their resolutions, who plans and organises everything. But I’m also one of those who love to have excitement and surprise in her life, so I let those plans get destroyed by circumstances and make new plans on the go.
 
A very varied breakfast
 
I hope 2022 is full of those kind of moments. I am sure it will be. I am sure your year will be full of good things too. You just have to focus on them and make them your priority.

I say this because I know what I’m talking about. But I am also saying this because even in the darkest moments, there must be a bit of light to make the darkness noticeable.
 
Alhambra spanish guitars
I took a look at some Spanish guitars. I’ve been wanting to buy one.
 

I offer Coaching Sessions for that same reason. Because I’ve been in the darkness searching for that light too many times. I know how to make that lightbulb shine again, even when it seems impossible. That’s why I started this job, I don’t want people to feel as lost as I’ve felt. I want to be that switch for anyone who needs it.

This post isn’t as charged with photos as others, it’s a reflective post. Because normally I write for myself thinking about you, who are reading this. This time, I’m just letting out what I needed to say. Thanks for being there, one more year, one more month, one more week, one more day, one more morning, one more hour…

Have fun and keep fooding.
