Monday may not be everyone’s favorite, but around here, it’s become a kind of personal ritual. I believe in starting the week not with pressure, but with purpose—and a few small, meaningful actions to get grounded.
🧺 Monday Chores: Start Fresh, Feel Grounded
One of the first things I do every Monday is strip and wash all the bedding. There’s just something about climbing into crisp, clean sheets at the end of a productive day that shifts my whole mindset. It’s a reset button—not just for the house, but for the heart.
If you’re feeling scattered or behind before the week’s even begun, start there.
It’s simple. It’s powerful. It works.
🛍️ What’s Happening This Week in the Studio?
I’m in the process of moving all my semi-cured gel nail wraps from my Shopify store over to eBay. Why? Because I’m making room—for something that’s been calling to me for a while now.
Metaphysical items. Crystals, intention tools, and soulful pieces that align with my next chapter. This transition is more than just organizing stock—it’s about clearing space for growth.
🐴 Farm Life Update: A Baby Donkey Named…?
Last week, we welcomed a tiny baby donkey to the homestead! He’s the newest member of the barnyard crew, and his parents—Shrek and Fiona—are doing just fine. He’s still a little guy, but he’s already full of personality. No official name yet, but he’s definitely got main character energy.
(Photos coming soon. You’re not ready for the cuteness.)
✨ Monday Motivation: A List for Your Fridge, Journal, or Phone Wallpaper
Make your bed like you’re preparing a throne
Do one thing you’ve been putting off
Touch something from your past and honor it
Make space for what’s coming—even if you don’t know what it is
Take a five-minute walk with no agenda
Write down three things that went right last week
Say “I’m proud of you” to yourself today
Drink water like it’s magic (because it is)
💛 Final Thought
You don’t have to do everything today.
Just start the week with intention, a little movement, and maybe a bit of comfort—like fresh sheets and the smell of morning coffee.
It’s not about having a perfect plan.
It’s about having a soft place to start from.
Here’s to your Monday, your momentum, and your magic.
With coffee and calm,
Tonya 🌾
