Et si on arrêtait avec les “bonnes” résolutions ?
Début d’année rime souvent avec “bonnes” résolutions. J’ai toujours trouvé cela assez difficile à suivre de se promettre de faire ou ne pas faire quelque chose car cela allait souvait de pair avec une grosse culpabilité les jours où je ne pouvais m’y tenir. Dans les Accords Toltèques, il y a ce motto qui dit “Fais toujours de ton mieux” avec cette nuance que le mieux, n’est pas le meilleur. Le mieux, pour moi, c’est faire ce que l’on peut avec l’énergie du moment. Mon mieux certains jours, c’est terminer mes projets, me promener, cuisiner avec les enfants, faire de la gym… et puis un autre jour, mon mieux, c’est…

Do you want to build a… Gingerbread character?
When I manage to stay connected to the present moment, I love the end of the year. Very easily, my mind can get caught up in the storm of festivities and gifts, and I gently remind myself to reconnect with my breath and the simple things. 💕 So, I felt like preparing a little Christmas coloring, very simple, and some small gingerbread characters to decorate. The nice touch was to print them on cardboard paper for a ‘biscuit’ look. I then glued it onto a cardboard to reinforce it and added a ribbon to hang it up. 🎄 I wish you a beautiful week.

In my everyday life, I love minimalism and prioritizing experiences over possessing many things we ultimately don’t need. However, as an adult, mom, homeschooler, illustrator, etc…. I need time! I need moments for myself, not necessarily long moments, but moments to recharge. So, this Advent calendar is the perfect…

I wondered how I could create something visually that could help her better understand…

Feeling a little nostalgic? Color the best consoles in the World
Hello there! Here’s a little coloring page inspired by the best of consoles 🤣 Seriously, I fired up my Game Boy a few weeks ago, and once again, I was completely hooked! I explained to my kids that back in the day, we didn’t have saving options, and we had to start everything from scratch! I feel like drawing it and taking my little console out into nature. 🍃 I still remember the day I finally got my Game Boy. I was in 5th grade, and for Christmas, I received this awesome console. We went to buy it with my parents, and there were Scouts wrapping gifts. 🎁 🎄 I…
