🌿 Softness Is Sacred

 

By Dr. J. Bliss

Today, I chose myself.

I shut the world out, turned inward, and created a sanctuary of stillness and care.
There was no rushing. No apologizing. No proving.
Just presence.

From the affirmations on my wall to the herbal steam rising beneath me, every moment was a quiet offering. A soft devotion.

I sat on my yoni steam with herbs curated not just for my body, but for my spirit — for my nervous system, my womb, and the part of me that carries what I don’t say out loud.
Then, I entered the sauna. I soaked in love. I poured warm water. I applied oils.
Every drop… a reminder: “You are seen. You are valued. You are supported.”

As women, our bodies hold so much — especially in the days leading up to our cycle.
We deserve rituals that help us release, reset, and reconnect.

Incorporating herbs into the sauna allowed my skin, my womb, and my breath to receive what they’ve needed all along: peace, warmth, and restoration.

No guilt.
No explaining.
Just intentional rest.

We are allowed to pause.
We are allowed to tend to ourselves.
And today, I did just that.

Softness doesn’t mean silence.
It doesn’t mean shrinking.
It means choosing to be whole — without apology.

If this resonates with you, let it be your reminder:
You are worth tending to.
You are worthy of your own devotion.

I write these softness letters for the women learning to return home to themselves.

You’re always welcome here. 🌿
