I have always felt like a misfit and don't belong. Last year, someone told me that I was quirky. I took it as a compliment. I have learned to embrace who I am. At 53, I dont try to fit in and don't want to. I have taken off 11 months for some healing and me time. I have been judged for quitting my job. I had to quit because of the stress and what it was doing to my health. I have been on a unique journey these last 11 months. I have learned so much about me, others, and God. I appreciate you and so many people on you tube encouraging me this past 11 months. I am painting again and making jewelry. I have sold one painting and have 2 more up for sale on Facebook Marketplace. I am thankful to have had some time to enjoy the seasons and heal. Thank you for your videos and your encouragement. I dont feel alone anymore! From this misfit in East Tennessee!
This Kurt Cobain quote touches me… “They laugh at me because I’m different. I laugh at them because they are all the same.” It puts my judgments about others in perspective. Thank you for your channel and wisdom.
"Time passes quickly" I'm convinced every time I step into the workshop, I'm entering a vortex an artistic vortex, my mind go's to my work and doesn't release me for many an hour.....💜
@@theunexpectedgypsy oh dear absolutely yes. Both my daughter and I paint and i often have said when I journey into my right brain time stands still or so it feels as I am lost in creatong all the world around me all the issues drift away farther and farther away as I get more and more into my mode. My daughter summarizes it as yes mom "reverse Narnia"
💜💜💜 I’ve been contemplating since your last video on feeling like a misfit. I am 67 years old and I can say I’ve never really felt like that but I have noticed as I get older, I’m starting to feel more and more invisible. Our society is geared toward younger people and the older I get, the less I “fit in”.
Glad you are feeling better. Taking time for yourself just to get some more energy is so important. A daily walk in the woods helps me. Love the wind in my face, to look at nature...and when I go home I always say thanks to nature. Hope you are doing well Wndy and wish you a lovely month of November 🧚♀️❤️
I love the timing of this so much Wise Wendy, there is a Frida exhibition here in Auckland New Zealand till Jan 2023 ..She is on my Invisible Mentor Board in my Head and I think of Her as one of My Wyrd SiSTARS and She gives us all Her Blessing hehe ..so We are going along .may have to go a few times ..glad You popped out of the Migraine tunnel ..have missed Ms Wendy Waffle's segment ..much love and blessings to You!! xxx PS Thanks ever so much for taking us to the Woods with You , so Magical I can feel the energy from here xxx
Dear Wendy, I am so happy you are feeling better. I too have migraines and I've had them since I was a teenager. I'm now 66. I've worked in a health food store and I've tried lots of things. Nothing works. Until I came across the Medical Medium. Have you heard of him? One of his receipes is to juice celery juice and to drink it on an empty stomach....I've been doing this for over four years and my migraines have disappeared along with hot flashes and my eyesight improving so much that my optometrist is surprised. She can't believe it! I highly recommend him and I feel so fortunate to have found him. I so love all your videos and artwork and I want for everyone to feel the best health possible. So as you say we can all keep our lights shining bright. Big Hugs, Cheryl
After a night of 4 hrs sleep I so needed to be reminded to show myself utter grace. Feeling guilty about lounging around, with a dull head and aching body (Fibromyalgia), while projects and necessities pile up around me just gets so overwhelming sometimes. Giving self permission to rest, regardless of responsibilities, is a challenge.
I am also absolutely having the opening of mouth and the hard truths come out with perimenopause. I LOVE that you said it was awesome. 😄 It's as if passing into this next phase somehow the societal niceties that we were programmed with to be good little girls no longer have a hold on us, as if a curse has been lifted. I think this is why society tries to silence older women. We get a little too powerful for others to know what to do with and at this point in our lives we have learned a new magic word: no. I do have a tendency to cross over into rude though if the truths come along with a hormone surge. That part is not so awesome. However, the other day someone tried to manipulate me to do something I did not want to do by asking in front of a lot of people and in front of all of them I said no in the most charming way. It was quite empowering. You keep doing you, Fairy Wendy. I love watching you create, manage your self-care, and share your insights and perspective on this exciting change. I think we will all have our fairy wings once we complete this metamorphosis. 🧚♂🧚🧚♀🧚🧚♂🧚♀
Angel Fairy, please don’t worry about editing your video. It will be perfect just as it turns out. Don’t work yourself back into a migraine. Love you 😍 so much and don’t want you to be in pain or stress! 😊Fran
You're a breath of fresh air Wendy. So real and relatable. Thanks for great content. I sometimes feel weird because I love being alone and don't do social situations well. I love the people I have in my life. My family and my husband and the few quality friends I have. I love being in my own space and feel drained if I'm around people. I care about others but I have to work hard to keep my mental and emotional well being in a good place. And playing with my art supplies is my happy place. I love trees and thrift shops and audio books and getting new art supplies. I live a simple life and it suits me real fine. It's nice to hear that there are other people like me.
I sure dont think we are misfits anymore or less than any other. Life is a series of 1500 piece jigsaw puzzles and each of us a piece. None of us when placed with the other properly surrounding pieces is a misfit we are a perfect fit. When situations drain us we are not a misfit, we are simply not adjacent to our proper pieces.
“Sometimes things slip out of my mouth and I didn’t mean to say them out loud!” 😂 you make me laugh, I have that too and we call it “foot IN mouth disease” at my place.
Years ago when I was trying to learn how to market my then business, someone told me “Don’t try to appeal to everyone, our strength is in our unique quirkiness.” I like that and it puts the misfit concept into a new light. Love the Frida quote. Serendipitous, as I hosted a party last Friday where we all came in costume and I chose Frida. I’ve recently had bad back, hip, and leg pain and was identifying a little with her extreme pain. Her bravery in carrying on is so inspiring and touching. Thank you for being another source of sweet insight and perseverance. 🥰
It just warms my heart seeing you out stomping in the woods, you are just like a little wood nymph or fairy.🧚🏼♀🧚🏾🧚🏼♂💖Hope you are feeling all better now.😊
I am 65 years young, and have always talked to myself out loud! It is quite worrying at times, if I have been in a public loo, and I come out and someone is outside, and they look at me in a funny way, and I think, what have I been saying out loud to myself this time?! If I have my rescue greyhound Madge with me, I pretend I have been talking to her! I love the way some of the talking is on here, yet you are not talking on the vlog! I find this really magical. Love your freedom in your art work. You have the most beautiful hair. Please just keep on doing what you are doing, you are so natural, and it is just perfect. Thank you, and bless you, from Devon, England. xxx
Why is it with everyone else's videos, I can't stand them when they get too long, while halfway through yours, if you change something, I start hoping it's not over yet, then am pleasantly surprised we're only halfway though!? Actually, I know the answer to that. You really help set a much-needed tone in my room. I've been bedridden and mostly alone, many years already, and just recently coming across your channel (many thanks to whomever chose it for my feed) I've been indulging almost every day. Thank you for sharing your life, for being frank, open, real, and most of all for your calmness and amazing creativity. I can't always act on the inspiration you stir up in me, however, I'm inspired none-the-less and have created more since watching than before watching. Remember, when you're not feeling well, that you're much appreciated. I just got over a migraine this morning as well. It's so lovely when they're gone.
Oh Dearest, so sorry for the migraine mayhem! I've suffered Acute Migraine Syndrome since 13 & no help from any prescribed meds. I am happy you were able to brighten my home with your UA-cam this morning. You are appreciated so very much. x's LJ P.S. Frida Kahlo is one of my heros!
Dear,dear Wendy thank you for that quote by Frida Kahlo. It brought tears to my eyes and such a wondrous nostalgia. I have called it “mental pause” since I went through it myself!you have my deepest sympathies as I too have suffered from migraines since I was 12 yrs old.
New to your channel, Wendy, and you're a breath of sparkly 'fresh air'. I'm a fellow artist whose career has been four decades in animated film. I crave getting to oil paint, for myself and have given that studio space to my photographer boyfriend. You've inspired me to carve out whatever space I can find to just 'create'. Thank you, be well, no more migraines...love your spirit and lovely art. 🎨
Glad you are feeling a bit better Wendy. Your comment about doing too much or not being aware of overdoing it really resonates with me. I live with ME/CFS and have done so for over 30 years. I recently came across a wonderful book called “Classic Pacing” by Ingebjorg Dahl. There is a line in this book that really spoke to me and I have been sharing it a lot. It doesn’t necessarily need to be appropriate only for people who struggle with energy but I think it is good advice for anyone. “The activities you do you must be able to do every day without getting worse/needing more rest.” This simple concept has really changed my way of doing things. I do things for a shorter period of time and then rest for the same amount of time. I seem to get more done in this way than doing something in one go and then crashing or feeling unwell for days. I hope it is helpful for any folks who struggle with energy limits.❤
Yesterday I spent 3 hours working in my garden. It's got very jungle like over winter and since I haven't been physically able. Fortunately new medicine has helped so much to decrease pain and stiffness. To my amazement I wasn't too sore or stiff this morning and so did an hour more. Being in my garden really transforms me in that I become more of myself in that way that is so difficult to put into words. I think of it as an alchemical process where the trees, plants, insects and birds become one. A Jan waffle doesnt sound nearly as good as a Wendy waffle. I think waffling and warbling is fantastic and becomes most commonly found in the older woman who remains fascinated and fascinating, curious and curiouser, babbling, brook like in creative worlds of our own unruly, and sometimes a little rebellious, design. Lots of love to you from me in Aotearoa New Zealand. Xxx
My dear Fairy Girl as I like to call you, you looks beautiful with your hair flowing . I too suffer from migraines and totally get you! I ve had a headache all weekend myself. My son spoke in his church today and I went to listen, the lights really bothered me as I want out of it with the head. Your quiet videos are just as thought provoking as when you speak to us. Time flies I do not know where … hehe… did two journaling pages this week and got lost in the process. Lovely walk I. The woods. 🍂🍁🌇☮️ lovely seeing your faces come together. Love your Wendy Waffling…. All the music in your videos are so beautiful. Getting out of our head and into our heart is sometimes hard to do but when it happens it is mystical. That’s when the energy really flows. It’s amazing when words flow easily and write in poetry form and you are right about the not thinking state. I am glad you are taking care of yourself, your talk on this today spoke to me in columns. I once told my friend that I felt I was born in the wrong era… because I felt like I was on the outside looking in… if that make sense. I still do at this age if 74 and I’m finally okay with that too. Wendy you help so many of us with your honesty an love. Love you to bits too. Thank you for being YOU and shingles your light on all that follow you. ❤❤❤
Hi Wendy, thanks for reminding us to take thing's at our own pace and not always pushing on through is the right thing to do . Like you I suffer from really bad migraine 🙃 which is awful and I just have to go to bed and try and sleep . I get them when I'm stressed or over tired . I think as we get older we learn to deal with them better and now at the grand age of nearly 60 I have recently learnt that I can say NO which means I'm not always at everyone's beck and call 24 hrs a day . It's not selfish it's me time so go ahead Ladies say NO every now and again and take a day off .the world will still carry on spinning and after time out you get back to it a better re freshed you .thanks Wendy hope you feel much better this week . Love the music for your videos of the lady singing what is it ? Can't find her anywhere . Sooooo calming it's beautiful . Much Love to you all xxxx
Ah thank you Wendy! You do make me feel better like I’m not so alone in my way of being! I know it’s cool to be different coz you are such a cool lady so I must be too….. Why is it hat being a creative and oddball seems to go hand in hand? Love how cosy the studio feels just from this side of the screen….. oh and keep Wendy waffling! Going to watch the vid again at some point coz it feels like there was just so much to take away from this one that I couldn’t get it all in the first go 😂…… Anyway thanks again! And have a lovely week….. 😊💗
Not sure why you wrote that you could have done better. I enjoyed the video, especially the part where you were painting the beautiful faces. When you mentioned Frida Kahlo I smiled - only yesterday I shared a quote of hers on Facebook. It's also very relevant to what you've been saying: "So absurd and ephemeral is our passage in this world, that the only thing that reassures me is the awareness of having been authentic...Being the most self-like person I could possibly imagine." :)
Congratulations, James and Harvey! Well done muddling through a week car-less and James-less, Wendy! So sorry to hear about the migraine. Glad it's let go. Love the Frida quote, cleaning and self care. I'm going through a bit of a sad moment, doing self care and finding my way through car-less and alone, as well. Also trying to be a little more productive. Looking forward to the new week's start tomorrow. Thinking of starting a quote a day habit. Thanks for the inspiration. Bright blessings.
I got so encouraged by you. Thank you. Went to a Thrift store and hardbacks even were 10¢ ea. Bought one to paint in, so fulfilling it is. Wished I bought plenty that day, but eh I wasn't confident being raised by parents that were avid readers I could get myself permission to go ahead and do that. Been free painting in it, real loose like way back on the handle. It quite so nourishing. Thank you
Time disappearing in a creative context is called Flow. It's the immersion of self into a 'task' to the point where you loose track of time. Its incredibly nourishing to the brain and to emotions and energises self.
I'm so glad I have older videos of yours to watch! You bring me into the world of self- awareness, affirmation and care. I can allow myself to have a creative outlet, rather than just being busy getting things done. Love the Wendy waffle, also ..is it bits and bobs, no, know what you mean but I forget what they are called! haha.
I've been watching your videos whilst recovering from covid and I have to thank you for reigniting my creative spark which had been fizzled out for a while. I have 4 new journals (that I didn't really need lol) that I made one afternoon whilst watching. And yes the menopause does have a curious effect on our inner selves, I've found bits of it quite freeing - the "say what you mean bit" in particular. Thank you for your inspiring content :)
I totally understand the whole body shutting down/migraine thing. I may “think” I am managing my stress, but my body will shut down when I am not. Weather fronts can trigger mine also.
I experience an odd euphoria post migraine, yes, we survived, we being all the parts emotional spiritual intellectual. Pushing thru by creation is healing and since my sight is still auric, my art journals paintings can be unusual. hugs and cheers Wendy.
Just love your channel 😍 I'm a left handed migraine sufferer and artist too. I'm nearly 60 and only just thinking about a studio. Take care of yourself lovely lady 🌹💖
Ha! I had to stop immediately when I saw you cutting out your faces for your journal. I love how you painted them. All messy and then adding different colors etc. Because I'm familiar with your art that didn't faze me because I KNEW you would do something special with them. And you did/are. I've been dabbling with art journaling in your style and if I can ever just learn to let go 100% and just let it all flow - that it will be an amazing experience. I've got so much in my head that I get stuck on what to draw/paint/ journal that I don't do anything at times. This video gave me a gentle nudge to just DO IT. Thanks Wendy! Much love from Susan in AZ.♥️🥰♥️
Oh Wendy,take your time when your body calls out for a rest. Look after yourself. I can wait for the next video and i am sure i am not the only one... We all need to listen to our body more closely. I love the fairies and mermaids you draw the are so beautiful 🧚♀️🧜♀️. Have a wonderful week🍁🐿☕.
Dear Wendy. Hope you are feeling better. No need to edit of too much. We care about you and your vlog's just the way they are. Always look forward to your updates. Thank you for being you and creating such a community that is safe, comforting, fun, educational and magical. Lisa, Ontario Canada 🇬🇧🇨🇦🌟❤️
I suffer from migraines, too. I've had headaches and migraines most of my life. Recently, it's been more about learning the difference between a migraine (spike in the head!) and a stress/tension headache (a vise is tightening on my head!). I have meds now that help for the migraines, but they still make me sleepy. I need to build more balance in my days. I start really well, and then stop. Thank you for your videos. They help me.
I love your idea of affirmation art/journaling. Heading into treatment for cancer, I continue to practice drawing and painting but feel very unfocused. I've started playing with painting more abstract "healthy cells" on tiny watercolor papers and I might add affirmations on these as visualizing as well as continuing with other subjects (i love painting animals and plants). I love your talking about listening- for art, spirit and body. My journey with menopause and cancer is a chapter of life of returning to intuition, following the messages of body and heart. Your videos are very calming and reminders we are not alone even though we are all on our own journeys. Art informs life and life informs art...we just have to keep listening, learning, and moving forward.
Dear Wendy and James, Thank you for your video. I really needed your calming sweet voice today. There are many migraine points to press, look them up, acupressure. A lot are on your cheeks, and jaw mandible. Rub for 240 seconds in little circles, you will know, it will be tender. When you stop, it won't be as sore. It can clear a migraine in 2 mins, and best done when you can feel it starting. I often get Patrick to rub parts of my face when really bad, as Love and massage, helps migraines, much better if someone else uses their healing hands, so ask James to help you. Look up the points for nausea too. I saw a neurologist who said to me, "Panadol causes headaches, that are chronic", I stopped it, migraines stopped. Who would have thought? I found Alka seltzer better, an aspirin product, which dissolves. Acupuncture works well, so does chiro. Migraines can be perimenopausal and hormonal. When I get so hot, I take herbal pills, and am fine, but I call my perimenopause," truth". Blunt, I can not lie! I will throw it at you fast, Subtle as sledgehammer. I am on my 3rd bed day. Not sure why I feel so exhausted? Or is it stress and concern? I am on day 5 of no sugar, honey, wheat, or coffee. I am doing well. A few cravings, but okay. Frozen blueberries yesterday helped with the sugar craving.... (I got up to day 8 last week and had to start it again as I had 1 and a half Lindt chocolates, which were very sickly sweet! But it was a short break away to the lower blue mountains, in Springwood, and when free chocolate and port are there, with a spa in the room, well.....what can I say?) It is raining here. One issue I suppose is all the flooding in Australia, wildlife, and homes, shops, whole towns. It is hard to love the rain when it hurts people by not stopping. I love the rain. I used to walk in the rain as a child. I think I would need some wet weather gear. Do you call your boots, "Wellington?" We are in mid Spring, and it feels like we have just wet seasons now. :( Like they have in far North Qld. My art studio is in a transitional mess. I want to put this there, and that here. So the things that had a home, I wanted to move furniture about. I thought about putting a blackboard and a tiled cork wall up, to cover a full wall, like I had as a child in my bedroom, but as it is a rental, I get a bit of cold feet. How would I do that? I love how you Wendy, have been able to create your space in your second studio by making adjustments. I wonder if it will get cold for you in the coming Winter, and hope you get a rug for Autumn! Things to stop the drafts around doors or windows, and acrylic to cover the window panes. We had a friend come up from Adelaide South Australia, for 4 days, and today is her last day here in Sydney, the problem though is I haven't seen her yet. One wonders if I will get up at all. In kindred spirit, Eliza Australia xx Monday 24th of October 2022 10:27am bed office, white skies, rain constant
Thanks so much, Wendy, for doing some painting in this video because that's what I enjoy the very most.. I would join your Patreon if I was able to commit to spending time painting and making the most of it, but I can't do that right now. much love x
Art journalling allows us to tap into our internal wellspring, to refill our cup from within. If we do this, as well as take care of our bodies, to keep that energy flowing, perhaps we can all have overflowing cups and will be able to share from our saucers. And, I've dropped earbuds in my tea as well! Glad the migraine has passed, and hope that wrung-out rag feeling has faded as well (familiar scenario post-migraine). Sending healing and strengthening energy out for you - perhaps the trees are storing it for you? Or are the fairies delivering it? Love and light to all my sisters and brothers who belong to our unique and special group.
The thing about us constantly creative messy minds,nobody else can see it. But I bet in all that disorganized chaos you know where every pen,pencil,brush,bits of paper are located.
Dear lovely authentic Wendy thank you for sharing. I love the giving ourselves complete grace when we need it. I fell 2 days ago and ended up with a fractured ankle and spine. I'm forced into resting and giving my body what it needs and I love the expression Grace. I love watching your videos and send healing vibes to you during this time namaste 🙏
Glad you are feeling better. Illness of any form is crushing. It takes so much for me to get back. Thanks so much for sharing your walks with the trees. I'm not an artist but you inspire me to draw and cut & glue pictures into my journal. I didn't used to like my journal before you inspired me to add art for Me. Thank You so much. ☕ Cheers ❤️
Dearest Wendy-Waffle ... love that! such a pleasure to be in your company .... always feel better for it!! we love you lots and lots .... the unexpected adopted bonbon xo xo
dear Wendy, I find it so hard to find balance in energy with the long Covid problems I endure the last two years. It is limiting my plans a lot of times. I love the way you talk about this struggling and try to find peace with this. I find it very difficult Thank you Wendy😘❤️🌹
I knew for many years that I was odd, the loner, a little different than the others. And I learned early on to embrace that. As I get older, I embrace that a little more as the days go by till I am now at a point where I truly can say I love me. Thank you for the reminder that it’s OK to take a break. ❤️
Take good care of yourself, you can only do so much before your inner self objects. It’s difficult to learn to listen to our inner self. Stay safe love and hugs xx
Same here with the migrane...but mine affected my eyes more and my vision. Lots of auroras and vertigo. I was fine until the weather shifted from normal autumn cold to strangly warm, windy and humid.
Not surprised you had a migraine. I always get one just before rain n storms. Its thw changing preasure system and low hanging clouds. Wishing you a quick recovery.
I really love watching you create, it just blows my mind. I loved art at school but was guided away by well meaning adults because I would be 'wasting' myself, sadly I've wandered through life not really knowing where I fit. My question to you this week is do you think anyone can learn to paint, draw, "do art" because when I open my journal I can write for pages but the thought of anything artish and I freezer, I just can't do it. So afraid of not being good enough, not getting it right even though no one will ever see it. I guess the lesson is to be aware of how powerful our words can be especially to those still finding themselves......hmmm isn't that all of us??
If you immerse yourself in art on Instagram (just follow people who inspire you), you will see that there are SO many different kinds of art. It may free you from feeling that you don't fit in or aren't good enough. It helps me a lot to see others work.
Oh friend Wendy, you are a treat for my poor confused Soul, I now have permission to create in such random fashions. Thank you, thank you, thank you.... As far as talking before the brain is engaged, my father used to say - "her mouth flies open and allows the wind to blow her tongue around" - I used to feel insulted by that saying but now I can see it is as an artistic salute to a person who is in touch with the elementals and their love of play. Haha isn't it amazing how love can alter perspective. Life is a bit too serious sometimes, we so very much need to play. Do keep playing dear Wendy, the beautiful outcomes are pasted into your inspiring book.
I have started journaling and I find it relaxing to do. Helps me put my feelings into it and how my day is going. Putting things into perspective. Creativity and processing thoughts into it. Very good.
Really happy you are feeling better. ❤ Love hearing from you today. I have not worked in my journal in quite awhile. I have been working with my drawing skills and sketching some studies of animals and some figurative work from other artists lately on toned gray paper. It has really been interesting. The forest walk was very relaxing. Have a great Sunday. 🙂
I so loved spending Sunday morning with you dear. I am happy to here you are feeling better now and yes Our body will let us know when we are out of balance . So important yes to take care of all of us Spirit mind and body . Thank you so much for sharing your walk in the woods so beautiful I am not able to go and do this right now so is like I can go on a walk with you.,I do have some beautiful trees in the front of the house That are very old wise trees and have been here for many years they are so beautiful so I can enjoy them. I love your expression of when you art journaling as is yes so special , and yes going into heart coherence . I take time every morning and ask what to do this day and sometimes it has nothing to do with working but may be to Dance or relax or dance can be wonderful letting the inner child express as can be so healing and taking care of the soul. Dear I believe we all have time we forget and miss signs sometimes in the busyness of the world you are so perfect as you are beautiful Wendy Divine Goddess . love to you and thank you for sharing with us you are inspirational always . much love xxxooo
Perked me up! Thinking and feeling along with you! Been doing some real fast and mostly not that good (Inktober) but surprisingly some of them really worked! Got Covid booster and extra strong flu shot, which made my entire arm painful, now it is achy! Inspired by how you work out what helps you! Blessed and safe days!
Thanks Wendy. My Daughter suffers from those headaches. We call it having too many Irons in the Fire. I can always tell recently when she is about to get one. Running around with her two kids and her volunteer work, and a recently retired husband has kept her on her toes. She needs to recharge her batteries. I’m glad I’m close to help although my Art journaling gets put on back burner. Her Cotton Brain usually lasts longer than the headache.
OHH! You and I were in the same tunnel. I take Magnesium at night to help me sleep and relieve that pain. I feel like the downpour we had here cleared it all out and I could finally take a deep breath.
Lovely video, could definately relate and some kind words of wisdom. Loved the Frida Khalo quote too. I've finally gotten to the stage where I don't really care what others think of me - or at least I'm about 90% there!
We are all strangely beautiful you are not alone beautiful Wendy....I love turning all the lights off lighting a candle and inviting cat into my arms while watching your Soothing peacefilled videos you are sooooo sweet Wendy thanks for sharing 😘
Goodness I got a migraine last week that I can't seem to completely shake off no matter what I do. Sometimes this happens & that it goes away soon. Glad yours is feeling better & that you're healthy. TFS Wendy. You always help in us in some way or another 🙂 That's one of my favorite quotes from Frida 💙

I have always felt like a misfit and don't belong. Last year, someone told me that I was quirky. I took it as a compliment. I have learned to embrace who I am. At 53, I dont try to fit in and don't want to. I have taken off 11 months for some healing and me time. I have been judged for quitting my job. I had to quit because of the stress and what it was doing to my health. I have been on a unique journey these last 11 months. I have learned so much about me, others, and God. I appreciate you and so many people on you tube encouraging me this past 11 months. I am painting again and making jewelry. I have sold one painting and have 2 more up for sale on Facebook Marketplace. I am thankful to have had some time to enjoy the seasons and heal. Thank you for your videos and your encouragement. I dont feel alone anymore! From this misfit in East Tennessee!
This Kurt Cobain quote touches me…
“They laugh at me because I’m different. I laugh at them because they are all the same.”
It puts my judgments about others in perspective.
Thank you for your channel and wisdom.
"Time passes quickly" I'm convinced every time I step into the workshop, I'm entering a vortex an artistic vortex, my mind go's to my work and doesn't release me for many an hour.....💜
yes! I totally get that and love your description of it!! thank you xx
Yes! The time goes so fast you look up and the day's over.
@@feelinguru-vywiththepaingu9808 It does doesn't it, I've really noticed it as the nights are drawing in, it's dark before I know it...
@@theunexpectedgypsy oh dear absolutely yes.
Both my daughter and I paint and i often have said when I journey into my right brain time stands still or so it feels as I am lost in creatong all the world around me all the issues drift away farther and farther away as I get more and more into my mode. My daughter summarizes it as yes mom "reverse Narnia"
💜💜💜 I’ve been contemplating since your last video on feeling like a misfit. I am 67 years old and I can say I’ve never really felt like that but I have noticed as I get older, I’m starting to feel more and more invisible. Our society is geared toward younger people and the older I get, the less I “fit in”.
Glad you are feeling better.
Taking time for yourself just to get some more energy is so important. A daily walk in the woods helps me. Love the wind in my face, to look at nature...and when I go home I always say thanks to nature.
Hope you are doing well Wndy and wish you a lovely month of November 🧚♀️❤️

Dear Wendy, I am so happy you are feeling better. I too have migraines and I've had them since I was a teenager. I'm now 66. I've worked in a health food store and I've tried lots of things. Nothing works. Until I came across the Medical Medium. Have you heard of him? One of his receipes is to juice celery juice and to drink it on an empty stomach....I've been doing this for over four years and my migraines have disappeared along with hot flashes and my eyesight improving so much that my optometrist is surprised. She can't believe it! I highly recommend him and I feel so fortunate to have found him. I so love all your videos and artwork and I want for everyone to feel the best health possible. So as you say we can all keep our lights shining bright. Big Hugs, Cheryl
After a night of 4 hrs sleep I so needed to be reminded to show myself utter grace. Feeling guilty about lounging around, with a dull head and aching body (Fibromyalgia), while projects and necessities pile up around me just gets so overwhelming sometimes. Giving self permission to rest, regardless of responsibilities, is a challenge.
Yes we with fibro need rest and should take it without guilt
I am also absolutely having the opening of mouth and the hard truths come out with perimenopause. I LOVE that you said it was awesome. 😄 It's as if passing into this next phase somehow the societal niceties that we were programmed with to be good little girls no longer have a hold on us, as if a curse has been lifted. I think this is why society tries to silence older women. We get a little too powerful for others to know what to do with and at this point in our lives we have learned a new magic word: no.
I do have a tendency to cross over into rude though if the truths come along with a hormone surge. That part is not so awesome. However, the other day someone tried to manipulate me to do something I did not want to do by asking in front of a lot of people and in front of all of them I said no in the most charming way. It was quite empowering.
You keep doing you, Fairy Wendy. I love watching you create, manage your self-care, and share your insights and perspective on this exciting change. I think we will all have our fairy wings once we complete this metamorphosis.
🧚♂🧚🧚♀🧚🧚♂🧚♀
Angel Fairy, please don’t worry about editing your video. It will be perfect just as it turns out. Don’t work yourself back into a migraine. Love you 😍 so much and don’t want you to be in pain or stress! 😊Fran
absolutely thank you angel xFran xxxxxxxxxx
You're a breath of fresh air Wendy. So real and relatable. Thanks for great content. I sometimes feel weird because I love being alone and don't do social situations well. I love the people I have in my life. My family and my husband and the few quality friends I have. I love being in my own space and feel drained if I'm around people. I care about others but I have to work hard to keep my mental and emotional well being in a good place. And playing with my art supplies is my happy place. I love trees and thrift shops and audio books and getting new art supplies. I live a simple life and it suits me real fine. It's nice to hear that there are other people like me.
I sure dont think we are misfits anymore or less than any other.
Life is a series of 1500 piece jigsaw puzzles and each of us a piece.
None of us when placed with the other properly surrounding pieces is a misfit we are a perfect fit.
When situations drain us we are not a misfit, we are simply not adjacent to our proper pieces.
You must be amazing, thank you for sharing 😊
I love watching you work
Another sweet and vulnerable video. Thank you
Wise words from Wendy... Thank you for being there. Mel x
“Sometimes things slip out of my mouth and I didn’t mean to say them out loud!” 😂 you make me laugh,
I have that too and we call it “foot IN mouth disease” at my place.
Years ago when I was trying to learn how to market my then business, someone told me “Don’t try to appeal to everyone, our strength is in our unique quirkiness.” I like that and it puts the misfit concept into a new light.
Love the Frida quote. Serendipitous, as I hosted a party last Friday where we all came in costume and I chose Frida. I’ve recently had bad back, hip, and leg pain and was identifying a little with her extreme pain. Her bravery in carrying on is so inspiring and touching.
Thank you for being another source of sweet insight and perseverance. 🥰
Sending love !! Love having coffee with you
It just warms my heart seeing you out stomping in the woods, you are just like a little wood nymph or fairy.🧚🏼♀🧚🏾🧚🏼♂💖Hope you are feeling all better now.😊
I too have known all my life I did not think or act as others. I have decided to to change the different to special.
I am 65 years young, and have always talked to myself out loud! It is quite worrying at times, if I have been in a public loo, and I come out and someone is outside, and they look at me in a funny way, and I think, what have I been saying out loud to myself this time?! If I have my rescue greyhound Madge with me, I pretend I have been talking to her! I love the way some of the talking is on here, yet you are not talking on the vlog! I find this really magical. Love your freedom in your art work. You have the most beautiful hair. Please just keep on doing what you are doing, you are so natural, and it is just perfect. Thank you, and bless you, from Devon, England. xxx
Why is it with everyone else's videos, I can't stand them when they get too long, while halfway through yours, if you change something, I start hoping it's not over yet, then am pleasantly surprised we're only halfway though!? Actually, I know the answer to that. You really help set a much-needed tone in my room. I've been bedridden and mostly alone, many years already, and just recently coming across your channel (many thanks to whomever chose it for my feed) I've been indulging almost every day. Thank you for sharing your life, for being frank, open, real, and most of all for your calmness and amazing creativity. I can't always act on the inspiration you stir up in me, however, I'm inspired none-the-less and have created more since watching than before watching. Remember, when you're not feeling well, that you're much appreciated. I just got over a migraine this morning as well. It's so lovely when they're gone.
I just love your music. Thank you for your generous and wise comments.
Oh Dearest, so sorry for the migraine mayhem! I've suffered Acute Migraine Syndrome since 13 & no help from any prescribed meds. I am happy you were able to brighten my home with your UA-cam this morning. You are appreciated so very much. x's LJ P.S. Frida Kahlo is one of my heros!
Dear,dear Wendy thank you for that quote by Frida Kahlo. It brought tears to my eyes and such a wondrous nostalgia. I have called it “mental pause” since I went through it myself!you have my deepest sympathies as I too have suffered from migraines since I was 12 yrs old.
This was a beautiful vlog.
Love your videos Wendy! So genuine and reaffirming. Thanks oodles for sharing your journey with us!
New to your channel, Wendy, and you're a breath of sparkly 'fresh air'. I'm a fellow artist whose career has been four decades in animated film. I crave getting to oil paint, for myself and have given that studio space to my photographer boyfriend. You've inspired me to carve out whatever space I can find to just 'create'. Thank you, be well, no more migraines...love your spirit and lovely art. 🎨
Glad you are feeling a bit better Wendy.
Your comment about doing too much or not being aware of overdoing it really resonates with me. I live with ME/CFS and have done so for over 30 years. I recently came across a wonderful book called “Classic Pacing” by Ingebjorg Dahl. There is a line in this book that really spoke to me and I have been sharing it a lot. It doesn’t necessarily need to be appropriate only for people who struggle with energy but I think it is good advice for anyone.
“The activities you do you must be able to do every day without getting worse/needing more rest.” This simple concept has really changed my way of doing things. I do things for a shorter period of time and then rest for the same amount of time. I seem to get more done in this way than doing something in one go and then crashing or feeling unwell for days. I hope it is helpful for any folks who struggle with energy limits.❤
Yesterday I spent 3 hours working in my garden. It's got very jungle like over winter and since I haven't been physically able. Fortunately new medicine has helped so much to decrease pain and stiffness. To my amazement I wasn't too sore or stiff this morning and so did an hour more. Being in my garden really transforms me in that I become more of myself in that way that is so difficult to put into words. I think of it as an alchemical process where the trees, plants, insects and birds become one. A Jan waffle doesnt sound nearly as good as a Wendy waffle. I think waffling and warbling is fantastic and becomes most commonly found in the older woman who remains fascinated and fascinating, curious and curiouser, babbling, brook like in creative worlds of our own unruly, and sometimes a little rebellious, design. Lots of love to you from me in Aotearoa New Zealand. Xxx
"nurturing all the areas... ❣....and give yourself some grace"
My dear Fairy Girl as I like to call you, you looks beautiful with your hair flowing . I too suffer from migraines and totally get you!
I ve had a headache all weekend myself. My son spoke in his church today and I went to listen, the lights really bothered me as I want out of it with the head.
Your quiet videos are just as thought provoking as when you speak to us. Time flies I do not know where … hehe… did two journaling pages this week and got lost in the process.
Lovely walk I. The woods. 🍂🍁🌇☮️ lovely seeing your faces come together. Love your Wendy Waffling….
All the music in your videos are so beautiful.
Getting out of our head and into our heart is sometimes hard to do but when it happens it is mystical. That’s when the energy really flows. It’s amazing when words flow easily and write in poetry form and you are right about the not thinking state.
I am glad you are taking care of yourself, your talk on this today spoke to me in columns. I once told my friend that I felt I was born in the wrong era… because I felt like I was on the outside looking in… if that make sense. I still do at this age if 74 and I’m finally okay with that too.
Wendy you help so many of us with your honesty an love. Love you to bits too. Thank you for being YOU and shingles your light on all that follow you. ❤❤❤
I love house plants, and have quite a few. I'd like to see your "plant babies" and hear any special stories about them.
They make you studio so cozy!
The Frida Kahlo quote is spot on❤
Hi Wendy, thanks for reminding us to take thing's at our own pace and not always pushing on through is the right thing to do . Like you I suffer from really bad migraine 🙃 which is awful and I just have to go to bed and try and sleep . I get them when I'm stressed or over tired . I think as we get older we learn to deal with them better and now at the grand age of nearly 60 I have recently learnt that I can say NO which means I'm not always at everyone's beck and call 24 hrs a day . It's not selfish it's me time so go ahead Ladies say NO every now and again and take a day off .the world will still carry on spinning and after time out you get back to it a better re freshed you .thanks Wendy hope you feel much better this week . Love the music for your videos of the lady singing what is it ? Can't find her anywhere . Sooooo calming it's beautiful . Much Love to you all xxxx
It's called "Herbal Tea" by Velvet Moon 💛💫🌟 It's lovely, isn't it!
@@love-light369 thanks so much x
“Nurture, grace and rest”. Good advice. Glad you’re feeling better! 🤍✨
Good morning from the other side of the world 🌺🙏🙋🏼♀️ Hope you all with Migraine feel better ❤️
good evening!! hahahah!! xxxxxxx happy morning to you!
Think I’m 11 hours behind you in time 🤯
Broken brain can't figure out HOW....
You're a Beautiful person.ty.
Love from Canada.X
Ah thank you Wendy! You do make me feel better like I’m not so alone in my way of being! I know it’s cool to be different coz you are such a cool lady so I must be too….. Why is it hat being a creative and oddball seems to go hand in hand? Love how cosy the studio feels just from this side of the screen….. oh and keep Wendy waffling! Going to watch the vid again at some point coz it feels like there was just so much to take away from this one that I couldn’t get it all in the first go 😂…… Anyway thanks again! And have a lovely week….. 😊💗
Not sure why you wrote that you could have done better. I enjoyed the video, especially the part where you were painting the beautiful faces. When you mentioned Frida Kahlo I smiled - only yesterday I shared a quote of hers on Facebook. It's also very relevant to what you've been saying: "So absurd and ephemeral is our passage in this world, that the only thing that reassures me is the awareness of having been authentic...Being the most self-like person I could possibly imagine." :)
Good morning beautiful Wendy ❤️
heyyy xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I love a "Wendy waffle" look forward to seeing you every Sunday! Thank you
Congratulations, James and Harvey! Well done muddling through a week car-less and James-less, Wendy! So sorry to hear about the migraine. Glad it's let go. Love the Frida quote, cleaning and self care. I'm going through a bit of a sad moment, doing self care and finding my way through car-less and alone, as well. Also trying to be a little more productive. Looking forward to the new week's start tomorrow. Thinking of starting a quote a day habit. Thanks for the inspiration. Bright blessings.
You really are the most adorable human I've seen in a long time.
Love you
I got so encouraged by you. Thank you. Went to a Thrift store and hardbacks even were 10¢ ea. Bought one to paint in, so fulfilling it is. Wished I bought plenty that day, but eh I wasn't confident being raised by parents that were avid readers I could get myself permission to go ahead and do that.
Been free painting in it, real loose like way back on the handle.
It quite so nourishing.
Thank you
Time disappearing in a creative context is called Flow. It's the immersion of self into a 'task' to the point where you loose track of time. Its incredibly nourishing to the brain and to emotions and energises self.
I'm so glad I have older videos of yours to watch! You bring me into the world of self- awareness, affirmation and care. I can allow myself to have a creative outlet, rather than just being busy getting things done. Love the Wendy waffle, also ..is it bits and bobs, no, know what you mean but I forget what they are called! haha.
THANK YOU WENDY😊You really light up my day! Sending you all my love😘
I've been watching your videos whilst recovering from covid and I have to thank you for reigniting my creative spark which had been fizzled out for a while.
I have 4 new journals (that I didn't really need lol) that I made one afternoon whilst watching.
And yes the menopause does have a curious effect on our inner selves, I've found bits of it quite freeing - the "say what you mean bit" in particular. Thank you for your inspiring content :)
I totally understand the whole body shutting down/migraine thing. I may “think” I am managing my stress, but my body will shut down when I am not. Weather fronts can trigger mine also.
It's always a pleasure watching your videos ☺️ I look forward to Sunday when I know your video's are up to watch .
I experience an odd euphoria post migraine, yes, we survived, we being all the parts emotional spiritual intellectual. Pushing thru by creation is healing and since my sight is still auric, my art journals paintings can be unusual. hugs and cheers Wendy.
Just love your channel 😍 I'm a left handed migraine sufferer and artist too. I'm nearly 60 and only just thinking about a studio. Take care of yourself lovely lady 🌹💖
Thank you for being you. Really really struggling lately and you're one of the voices I go to when I need some grounding at night
❤❤❤
Ha! I had to stop immediately when I saw you cutting out your faces for your journal. I love how you painted them. All messy and then adding different colors etc. Because I'm familiar with your art that didn't faze me because I KNEW you would do something special with them. And you did/are. I've been dabbling with art journaling in your style and if I can ever just learn to let go 100% and just let it all flow - that it will be an amazing experience. I've got so much in my head that I get stuck on what to draw/paint/ journal that I don't do anything at times. This video gave me a gentle nudge to just DO IT. Thanks Wendy! Much love from Susan in AZ.♥️🥰♥️
Oh Wendy,take your time when your body calls out for a rest. Look after yourself. I can wait for the next video and i am sure i am not the only one... We all need to listen to our body more closely.
I love the fairies and mermaids you draw the are so beautiful 🧚♀️🧜♀️.
Have a wonderful week🍁🐿☕.
Dear Wendy. Hope you are feeling better. No need to edit of too much. We care about you and your vlog's just the way they are. Always look forward to your updates. Thank you for being you and creating such a community that is safe, comforting, fun, educational and magical. Lisa, Ontario Canada 🇬🇧🇨🇦🌟❤️
It's all about balance & each individual's balance setting is unique to them. 💛💫🌟
Dear Wendy take care of you and thank you for existing💚✨🌷🦋🌞
Look after yourself Wendy 🥰
I suffer from migraines, too. I've had headaches and migraines most of my life. Recently, it's been more about learning the difference between a migraine (spike in the head!) and a stress/tension headache (a vise is tightening on my head!). I have meds now that help for the migraines, but they still make me sleepy. I need to build more balance in my days. I start really well, and then stop. Thank you for your videos. They help me.
I love your idea of affirmation art/journaling. Heading into treatment for cancer, I continue to practice drawing and painting but feel very unfocused. I've started playing with painting more abstract "healthy cells" on tiny watercolor papers and I might add affirmations on these as visualizing as well as continuing with other subjects (i love painting animals and plants). I love your talking about listening- for art, spirit and body. My journey with menopause and cancer is a chapter of life of returning to intuition, following the messages of body and heart. Your videos are very calming and reminders we are not alone even though we are all on our own journeys. Art informs life and life informs art...we just have to keep listening, learning, and moving forward.
soft healing for your journey and love your ideas about healthy cells with affirmations.. xxx big loves xxx
Dear Wendy and James,
Thank you for your video. I really needed your calming sweet voice today.
There are many migraine points to press, look them up, acupressure. A lot are on your cheeks, and jaw mandible. Rub for 240 seconds in little circles, you will know, it will be tender. When you stop, it won't be as sore. It can clear a migraine in 2 mins, and best done when you can feel it starting. I often get Patrick to rub parts of my face when really bad, as Love and massage, helps migraines, much better if someone else uses their healing hands, so ask James to help you. Look up the points for nausea too.
I saw a neurologist who said to me, "Panadol causes headaches, that are chronic", I stopped it, migraines stopped.
Who would have thought?
I found Alka seltzer better, an aspirin product, which dissolves. Acupuncture works well, so does chiro. Migraines can be perimenopausal and hormonal.
When I get so hot, I take herbal pills, and am fine, but I call my perimenopause," truth".
Blunt, I can not lie! I will throw it at you fast, Subtle as sledgehammer.
I am on my 3rd bed day.
Not sure why I feel so exhausted? Or is it stress and concern?
I am on day 5 of no sugar, honey, wheat, or coffee. I am doing well. A few cravings, but okay. Frozen blueberries yesterday helped with the sugar craving....
(I got up to day 8 last week and had to start it again as I had 1 and a half Lindt chocolates, which were very sickly sweet! But it was a short break away to the lower blue mountains, in Springwood, and when free chocolate and port are there, with a spa in the room, well.....what can I say?)
It is raining here. One issue I suppose is all the flooding in Australia, wildlife, and homes, shops, whole towns.
It is hard to love the rain when it hurts people by not stopping. I love the rain.
I used to walk in the rain as a child. I think I would need some wet weather gear.
Do you call your boots, "Wellington?"
We are in mid Spring, and it feels like we have just wet seasons now. :( Like they have in far North Qld.
My art studio is in a transitional mess. I want to put this there, and that here. So the things that had a home, I wanted to move furniture about. I thought about putting a blackboard and a tiled cork wall up, to cover a full wall, like I had as a child in my bedroom, but as it is a rental, I get a bit of cold feet. How would I do that?
I love how you Wendy, have been able to create your space in your second studio by making adjustments. I wonder if it will get cold for you in the coming Winter, and hope you get a rug for Autumn! Things to stop the drafts around doors or windows, and acrylic to cover the window panes.
We had a friend come up from Adelaide South Australia, for 4 days, and today is her last day here in Sydney, the problem though is I haven't seen her yet.
One wonders if I will get up at all.
In kindred spirit,
Eliza

Thanks so much, Wendy, for doing some painting in this video because that's what I enjoy the very most.. I would join your Patreon if I was able to commit to spending time painting and making the most of it, but I can't do that right now. much love x
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and space! Good advice!
Art journalling allows us to tap into our internal wellspring, to refill our cup from within. If we do this, as well as take care of our bodies, to keep that energy flowing, perhaps we can all have overflowing cups and will be able to share from our saucers.
And, I've dropped earbuds in my tea as well!
Glad the migraine has passed, and hope that wrung-out rag feeling has faded as well (familiar scenario post-migraine). Sending healing and strengthening energy out for you - perhaps the trees are storing it for you? Or are the fairies delivering it?
Love and light to all my sisters and brothers who belong to our unique and special group.
Big loves xx and thank you x
Take care dear Wendy
The thing about us constantly creative messy minds,nobody else can see it. But I bet in all that disorganized chaos you know where every pen,pencil,brush,bits of paper are located.
Dear lovely authentic Wendy thank you for sharing. I love the giving ourselves complete grace when we need it. I fell 2 days ago and ended up with a fractured ankle and spine. I'm forced into resting and giving my body what it needs and I love the expression Grace. I love watching your videos and send healing vibes to you during this time namaste 🙏
Glad you are feeling better. Illness of any form is crushing. It takes so much for me to get back.
Thanks so much for sharing your walks with the trees.
I'm not an artist but you inspire me to draw and cut & glue pictures into my journal. I didn't used to like my journal before you inspired me to add art for Me.
Thank You so much.
☕ Cheers ❤️
Dearest Wendy-Waffle ... love that! such a pleasure to be in your company .... always feel better for it!! we love you lots and lots .... the unexpected adopted bonbon xo xo
Wonderful Wendy. I feel ya. We flow with it💓
dear Wendy, I find it so hard to find balance in energy with the long Covid problems I endure the last two years. It is limiting my plans a lot of times.
I love the way you talk about this struggling and try to find peace with this. I find it very difficult
Thank you Wendy😘❤️🌹
I knew for many years that I was odd, the loner, a little different than the others. And I learned early on to embrace that. As I get older, I embrace that a little more as the days go by till I am now at a point where I truly can say I love me. Thank you for the reminder that it’s OK to take a break. ❤️
Take good care of yourself, you can only do so much before your inner self objects. It’s difficult to learn to listen to our inner self. Stay safe love and hugs xx
Same here with the migrane...but mine affected my eyes more and my vision. Lots of auroras and vertigo. I was fine until the weather shifted from normal autumn cold to strangly warm, windy and humid.
oh gosh, soft hugs for yours! xxxx
Not surprised you had a migraine. I always get one just before rain n storms. Its thw changing preasure system and low hanging clouds. Wishing you a quick recovery.
Please work in your journals more! Its so encouraging. Im hooked!💕
Beautiful words to empower and inspire Wendy - thank you 👏🙏
I really love watching you create, it just blows my mind. I loved art at school but was guided away by well meaning adults because I would be 'wasting' myself, sadly I've wandered through life not really knowing where I fit. My question to you this week is do you think anyone can learn to paint, draw, "do art" because when I open my journal I can write for pages but the thought of anything artish and I freezer, I just can't do it. So afraid of not being good enough, not getting it right even though no one will ever see it. I guess the lesson is to be aware of how powerful our words can be especially to those still finding themselves......hmmm isn't that all of us??
If you immerse yourself in art on Instagram (just follow people who inspire you), you will see that there are SO many different kinds of art. It may free you from feeling that you don't fit in or aren't good enough. It helps me a lot to see others work.
Oh friend Wendy, you are a treat for my poor confused Soul, I now have permission to create in such random fashions. Thank you, thank you, thank you.... As far as talking before the brain is engaged, my father used to say - "her mouth flies open and allows the wind to blow her tongue around" - I used to feel insulted by that saying but now I can see it is as an artistic salute to a person who is in touch with the elementals and their love of play. Haha isn't it amazing how love can alter perspective. Life is a bit too serious sometimes, we so very much need to play. Do keep playing dear Wendy, the beautiful outcomes are pasted into your inspiring book.
love you wendy thank you
I have started journaling and I find it relaxing to do. Helps me put my feelings into it and how my day is going. Putting things into perspective. Creativity and processing thoughts into it. Very good.
Dear I am really happy to meet you.. your lovely.. I love you and your world.. Best wishes for you
Really happy you are feeling better. ❤ Love hearing from you today. I have not worked in my journal in quite awhile. I have been working with my drawing skills and sketching some studies of animals and some figurative work from other artists lately on toned gray paper. It has really been interesting. The forest walk was very relaxing. Have a great Sunday. 🙂
I so loved spending Sunday morning with you dear. I am happy to here you are feeling better now and yes Our body will let us know when we are out of balance . So important yes to take care of all of us Spirit mind and body . Thank you so much for sharing your walk in the woods so beautiful I am not able to go and do this right now so is like I can go on a walk with you.,I do have some beautiful trees in the front of the house That are very old wise trees and have been here for many years they are so beautiful so I can enjoy them. I love your expression of when you art journaling as is yes so special , and yes going into heart coherence . I take time every morning and ask what to do this day and sometimes it has nothing to do with working but may be to Dance or relax or dance can be wonderful letting the inner child express as can be so healing and taking care of the soul. Dear I believe we all have time we forget and miss signs sometimes in the busyness of the world you are so perfect as you are beautiful Wendy Divine Goddess . love to you and thank you for sharing with us you are inspirational always . much love xxxooo
I forgot to say that I really love the fairy’s in your journal👍❤️🌹
Perked me up! Thinking and feeling along with you! Been doing some real fast and mostly not that good (Inktober) but surprisingly some of them really worked! Got Covid booster and extra strong flu shot, which made my entire arm painful, now it is achy! Inspired by how you work out what helps you! Blessed and safe days!
Hey Alice xxx Blessings to you too! xxx
Thanks Wendy. My Daughter suffers from those headaches. We call it having too many Irons in the Fire. I can always tell recently when she is about to get one. Running around with her two kids and her volunteer work, and a recently retired husband has kept her on her toes. She needs to recharge her batteries. I’m glad I’m close to help although my Art journaling gets put on back burner. Her Cotton Brain usually lasts longer than the headache.
Wendy, you are a treasure!
OHH! You and I were in the same tunnel. I take Magnesium at night to help me sleep and relieve that pain. I feel like the downpour we had here cleared it all out and I could finally take a deep breath.
I also take magnesium at night and it really helps! loves to you in Texas xx
@@theunexpectedgypsy
Lovely video, could definately relate and some kind words of wisdom. Loved the Frida Khalo quote too. I've finally gotten to the stage where I don't really care what others think of me - or at least I'm about 90% there!
We are all strangely beautiful you are not alone beautiful Wendy....I love turning all the lights off lighting a candle and inviting cat into my arms while watching your Soothing peacefilled videos you are sooooo sweet Wendy thanks for sharing 😘
Sweet...❤️✌️☺️
Sorry you had a migraine! They are horrid things to deal with! Look after yourself Wendy x
I always wave back! Sometimes I wave first! X
awww, Rose, The best! xxxxxxx
Very wise Wendy. Thanks for posting the video and glad you are over the 'lesson" Hugs
Goodness I got a migraine last week that I can't seem to completely shake off no matter what I do. Sometimes this happens & that it goes away soon. Glad yours is feeling better & that you're healthy. TFS Wendy. You always help in us in some way or another 🙂
That's one of my favorite quotes from Frida 💙
Dear Wendy, so sorry you have felt poorly. Love light, healing and blessings to you 🙏🌞
