Here's a peek at what I've been working on this month :3 Kira was helping me too hehe (last photo). You can join my patreon at patreon.com/charliettea for $2/month to get a digital version or $8/month to get a hard copy. Otherwise you'll have to wait till it hits my ko-fi! #zines #zine #wip #zinewip #rest #brumation #hibernation #mapleleaves #changingseasons #permissiontorest

A photo of the cover of a quarter page sized zine. Some decorative papers and a beige gel plate print with a grid pattern and scattered circles make up the background. A red three pointed maple leave is in the top center of the page. The title, Brumation, is pasted on top of the leaf. The author's name, charlie t tea, is at the bottom of the page. The text is typed in a typrewriter kind of font.

A photo of an inside spread of the zine. The white paper has some circular tea stains on it, and there are some ripped, yellowed pages as background color. There are a couple mushroom and fern stickers as well as a few orange ish yellow ginkgo leaves drawn on the pages. a very dark purple brown maple leaf is pasted on the upper right corner. Some text is typed out and cut and pasted on the pages. The text says, "Brumation: a state of sluggishness, inactivity, or torpor exhibited by reptiles (such as snakes or lizards) during winter or extended periods of low temperature. Brumation is a natural process that allows healthy reptiles handle stressful environmental conditions such as cold temperatures, drought, and/or extended periods of extreme heat."

A photo of another two page spread inside the zine. This one features small decorative mushroom papers in a couple corners, a red ink print of a maple leaf in one corner, a few marker drawn seedpods twirling down the page, and a marker drawn horse chestnut as well. There are sage green heart shapes in the center of the page which were printed with heart shaped bubble wrap. Decorative green leaf paper and a scrap of an old yellowed title page of the fall of the house of usher are also in the background. The text scattered on the page says, "perennial plants have periods of dormancy. Some mammals hibernate through winter. Reptiles brumate when it gets cold."

A photo of Kira the black cat sitting up on a grey couch in front of a white folding table. The point of view from which this picture was taken is sitting next to Kira on the couch, and she is looking at the camera with a somewhat annoyed expression. Her eyes are greenish yellow and she has a few white furs on her chest. There is a zine in progress sitting on a mat on the table, and if you zoom in you might see a spot of drool on the corner of the zine. There are a couple books and scraps on the table as well as an open laptop. Behind Kira on the couch there are some assorted papers and a blue nintendo switch lite. A pillow and a purple blanket are squished in the very back.

For the longest time, I THOUGHT I HAD to work 9–5 (or the Danish equivalent 8-4)... even though I built an entire business to not do that.

I had made the structure to fit myvery own rhythm and give myself freedom and flexibility - but I hadn’t given myself permission to live inside it.

Because deep in my own little Pandora’s Box, was a whole tangle of guilt, programming, and inherited beliefs about how I SHOULD be showing up.

Things like:
⏰ You should be awake early.
😴 You shouldn’t rest at weird times.
💡 You shouldn’t be building dreams at 10pm.

I know it's business related, but I hope you catch my drift.

Opening that box didn’t make it worse, though - it freed me.

And now I honour my body, my creativity, and my flow like they’re sacred. And keep practising it, because I still feel the pull of old habits. But the decision to go my own way is final!

🖤

So, love… what’s in your box?

What have you shoved down, labeled “not now,” or hidden behind logic and shame?

You don’t have to open it alone.

Self-abandonment doesn’t always look like collapse.

Sometimes it looks like smiling when you want to cry.

Sometimes it looks like saying yes before your body has a chance to answer.

Sometimes it looks like being so “understanding” that you forget you have your own needs.

Let this post be a reckoning, and not something to give you even more shame.

Because the more gently we name these patterns, the more power we get to reclaim.

You don’t have to abandon yourself to belong!

You don’t have to over-explain your no.

You don’t have to earn your softness.

You just get to return.
To your rhythm!
To your body!
To your self-trust!

That’s why I created The Liberation Spell™ - and why it lives inside Feel Good Rebel Academy.

You don’t need more steps.

You need a space that meets you where you are, and walks with you toward who you’re becoming.
