Time to get real and be the change we want to see in this world and era.

We cannot go into 2021 without really recognizing, accepting, and forgiving ourselves for not knowing (even if you did know, forgive and move forward) but do not forget how unsustainable, unequal, unjust, and white privilege affects the majority of the population on this planet.

We ALL have a lot of unconscious work to do (those who have being awake, and sharing your work. I appreciate you. Thank you.), and become anti-racist is work too. Let’s still hold accountability to corporations, governments, the education system, and corrupted greenwashing companies. Let’s take matters into our own hands, (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle), compost, donate what you don’t need anymore, less consumption, less waste,

support BIPOC and POC businesses and support local + eco-friendly brands!

I’ll start by letting you know, how I’ve been reducing my ecological footprint. Which has been a journey of roughly 7 years and 2 years of no more meat consumption. This blog post is a mix of it with some cheer holiday mojo for ya.

The minimalist and eco-warrior process has not been easy, however, it has saved me money, energy, time, and cleared space to be more creative. I’ve shared some of it here. During these times of being at home reading and researching in my environmental field. My work has been getting deeper meaning and urgency lately.

The more I’m learning to decolonize my mind, my ecosystem and help my community by sharing what has worked and doesn’t. The more is clear, we have a lot of conscious work to do because the mainstream media, the government, and all “It’s out of your control” BS which is basically, profiting of our unconscious minds and making it normal because it is what it is. Right?

Is not and we should remember that humans rights need to be respected when it comes to people’s health. Keep tuned, I’ll be releasing more blogs during this month and one of them is about massive research I’ve been doing on the new vaccine.

I’m still a student. Even though I’m an environmental scientist. I still have a lot to learn, since my education most probably was whitewashed and colonized bias education. I’m still grateful to know (not so much of student debt because I swear, I’ve been learning more outside of University than I did when I was there. But hey! here we are. The price of colonized mindset and living in cities where capitalism, white supremacy, and patriarchy thrive. We are all paying the price of it. In some form or the other. Unless you’ve been privileged enough to pass the middle class and poverty line. Just accepting, recognizing, and moving on).

I’m also grateful that I know nothing. And I’m here learning, dismantling, making mistake, failing by trying, not giving up, forgiving myself and societally imposed limitations, my second language is English, educating my girls, building a community of equity, justice, and earth warriors plus still continue the journey of being a good and conscious citizen for Earth.

We are done with the BS commercials and brainwashing media Christmas whitewashing strategies.

#themoreyouknow: Jesus wasn’t white by the way, and he was very awake and conscious men who die telling us the truth about our unconscious minds. The bible was written by men who were unconscious just like our colonizers. Jesus was killed because he was telling the truth. Which we already know that’s what societies and governments do to people who preach the truth right? He set us free by sacrificing and freeing himself. That’s what being awake is. It’s a form of death. The death of your unconscious mind. The ego. We are all God’s creation, and we are all creatives with special abilities. We just have been conditioned and programmed NOT to believe it. Again, it benefits those who thrive through inequality. Religion and time are illusion folks. Ways to control the unconscious and human psyche. This is why I’m very skeptical of this vaccine and the secretive ways they magically decided that it fits all humans. I’m not for or against it. Just facts. Love, nature, and your conscious + emotional intelligence are your true religion and your medicine. Meditate for 20 mins daily and you will see. Decolonize your mind, and you will see what I mean. Do your own research.

Now, let’s continue because is time we start realizing that our patterns of consumption are unsustainable and it only benefits 1% of people. Which are already extremely and ridiculously wealthy in the middle of a world pandemic.
