The tough news - no one is going to do the work for you. No one can show up for you and eat your vegetables, drink your water, get your solid sleep, get your steps and the movement that’s good for you. You’ve got to show up and do it for yourself. Motivation may not be there, but if you build the ritual, if you just take the first step and show up, I promise you it gets easier to put in the work. You also have to love yourself. We only get one you. So, my wish for you this month is that you will love yourself as much as everyone around you does and show up for you. This month, 20% of our proceeds will be contributed to Freedom For Immigrants. Freedom for Immigrants is an immigrant-led, abolitionist organization committed to ending immigration incarceration. They organize alongside leaders directly impacted by immigration detention, their families, and communities across the country to advance their liberatory vision of abolition. Their work is guided by the wisdom of those who have experienced detention firsthand. They believe these leaders are the heart of their movement and the true experts in their fight for collective liberation. Through organizing, strategic communications and storytelling, and other forms of advocacy, they fight to free people from detention and shut down deadly detention centers while also working long-term to structurally realign our societal priorities away from criminalization, detention, and deportation and toward non-punitive, humane, and welcoming policies. Informed by Black abolitionist visionaries who have paved the way before us, they understand immigration detention as one thread in the broader web of mass incarceration and the criminalization of Black and brown people. They fight for everyone - regardless of prior contact with the legal system or criminal record - as they practice community care and build popular support among the public for their vision.
