I’ve got my mind on Mardi Gras and Mardi Gras on I’ve got my mind on Mardi Gras and Mardi Gras on my mind 💜💚💛. I have to be honest that my little Mardi Gras heart shattered into a million pieces when they said no parades this year. But like so much in the last 12 months I have learned that the best parts of the things I love are the feelings I got from them. So while we will miss being on the Avenue this year we will come up with another way for Mardi Gras to live in our hearts until next year. Today on the blog I am telling your four ways you can Mardi Gras in place.  Link in bio.

The combination of taking down the Christmas decor and being stuck in the house for 10 days quarantining had me flitting all over the house purging things and moving stuff around. Every room has a fresh little look for the new year which makes my doer heart happy.

Lent – When to Subtract and When to Add

I was not raised catholic but my grandparents are catholic so I was brought up knowing about the traditions around Lent.  In the past several years I have really grown to appreciate the season.  I like the idea of letting go and focusing in on something.  Whether it’s prayer, mediation or just looking to better yourself Lent is a way to re-focus yourself.

Last year I decided in my participation I wouldn’t give something up but instead I would add something to my daily routine.  I was going through a particularly challenging internal conflict at the time so I chose a 40 day of yoga and meditation challenge to myself.  Each day I tried to do a short yoga practice when I woke up.  Several days of the week I would take a 40 to 60 minute intensive yoga class and then other days I would meditate in my home.  It was enlightening to have carved out that time for myself each day.  I not only saw difference in my clarity but also in my body.

40 Days of Intentional Living.

This year I was thinking about what I wanted to do and I came across the word intentional.  As a wife, mom of three small kids and a business owner I am pulled in a lot of different directions.  Then add things like Junior League, Mardi Gras Krewes, Room Mom and trying to keep up with my friends.  There are many days I find myself with little left to give.  It is a complicated stage in my life.

Rather than adding something to my already busy schedule I decided to focus on being intentional with my time and energy.

Everyone needs a reboot sometimes. Just a time to consciously mind your words and actions.  This is what I am trying to accomplish over the next 40 days.  A chance to watch my yeses and my no’s.  To know that I am making good choices with my time and working toward something rather than just spinning my wheels.

I encourage you to think about being intentional this Lenten season.  We don’t always have to think about giving something up.  Sometimes our heart needs something deeper than that and a better lesson to learn.  Focus on your heart and what you truly need.

XO,

Tippy
