Cambodia is one of the most bombed countries in the history of mankind, and has the largest amputee population in the world.
Purple Buddha Project handcrafts jewelry created by upcycling weapons of conflict from Cambodia such as bullets, bombshells, and other miscellaneous accessories of war through fair trade Cambodian cooperatives.
The purchase of each jewelry piece contributes to three pounds of rice for children at schools in need in Cambodia. 🇰🇭 🍚

I want to talk about something we sweep under the rug a lot of the time
Friendships are more complicated than we make them out to be. Some people can be easy to hang out with. It doesn’t take a great deal of effort to keep conversations going, there’s care given both ways; it doesn’t take a lot of spoons
But some people take more out of you. Hanging out can be draining and difficult when energy is in short supply. It can take too many spoons and if you’re anything like me, your spoon collection is very very small
It’s hard to be honest about this. It feels really shitty to tell someone “hey, i cant really hang out” much less “hey, i dont really have the social energy i need to be around you comfortably”

Mental illness sucks. We’re really sick. Your empathy means so much
This free self-care guide will help you assess your current level of self-care and develop a plan to create the type of self-care habits you want.
You’re not selfish for doing so. Set your boundaries, that’s healthy.
