We act like joy is a luxury for when we have the time and space for it, but it's so much more. It's actually a powerful force that is not only life-giving for us, but also what fuels our resilience and our ability to make positive change in the world. #joy

The way the natural layers wind down the length of one side of this green banded agate heart with the #kintsugi repair curving around to bisect them makes for an intriguing look. akintsugilife.com/product/kintsu… #kintsugiheart #kintsugijewelry

The deep purple of this purple howlite lets the set of #kintsugi repairs that mend it really shine. akintsugilife.com/product/kintsu… #kintsugicross #cross

Happy Monday morning! Wishing you all the deep knowledge that you are loved beyond measure as we enter this holiday week. ❤️❤️❤️ #Mondayblessings #love

"Times of scarcity need to be met with generosity, times of fear with comfort, times of uncertainty with presence. When we care for those around us, we create a field of love." ~Thomas Hübl How are you caring for yourself & others as we move through this year of uncertainty?

Love is both what we need most and too often the source of our deepest wounds. This leaves us defending ourselves from what we need most. This year more than ever we would benefit from letting down our walls to create a field of #love around us. akintsugilife.com/creating-a-fie… #advent4

This is my wish for you this Christmas and every Christmas. May your day be filled with love and good things, even if it's not the celebration you were hoping for. Merry Christmas, everyone! akintsugilife.com/my-christmas-w… #christmas

"What in your life is calling you, when all the noise is silenced, the meetings adjourned… the lists laid aside, and the wild iris blooms by itself in the dark forest… what still pulls on your soul?" ~Rumi How will you follow that call in this coming year?

The #kintsugi repair that mends this red #agate pendant cuts right through the bands in the stone to add extra beauty and character. akintsugilife.com/product/kintsu… #kintsugijewelry

Some big changes are coming here at A Kintsugi Life as I seek to better balance the demands on my time and energy due to changes that 2020 brought my way. Here's what is (and isn't) changing and why: akintsugilife.com/changes-ahead/ #change

A set of #kintsugi repairs adds so much to this petite blackstone teardrop pendant. akintsugilife.com/product/kintsu… #kintsugijewelry #kintsukuroi

It's not selfish to seek to heal our own pain or to create more joy in our lives because it doesn't just make our lives better, it also stops the spread of pain when we reduce our own pain. Pain is contagious because hurting people hurt others.

Gotta love that shade of purple in this #kintsugi repaired crazy lace agate broken heart pendant! akintsugilife.com/product/kintsu… #kintsugiheart #kintsugijewelry

This blue Italian onyx heart broke in such a unique way, and the #kintsugi repairs that mend it result in an unusual pattern that contrasts nicely with the layers of the stone running through it. akintsugilife.com/product/kintsu… #kintsugiheart #brokenheart
