Hello Steemians!

in #introductions6 years ago (edited)

My name is Lindsay, and I want to better understand what it means to be human:

What do we value and why?
How can we live more in alignment with our highest values?
How do our values give rise to our actions?
How can we can heal ourselves and others?
What is the role of our physical bodies?
How we can learn to love one another (and ourselves) better?

I'm a student of conflict resolution, a peace builder (and breaker), a community creator and supporter, a nester, a friend, a lover, a yogi, a cat mom. I'm curious about communication, consciousness, relationships, ego, trauma, power, social justice, Buddhism, dance, food, empathy, compassion, and the natural world. I intend to use this space as a way to continue to find my voice, to wonder and inquire, and to engage others on these important topics.

I look forward to meeting your courageous hearts and curious minds.

Welcome to Steemit and looking forward to what you feel called to manifest here :-)

Thank you for the warm welcome! :)

Yes! Welcome Lindsay. You are in the right place, but of course you are with the tribesteemup lads getting you on board.

Great questions to be asking, and I think that if we are really alive then we will all be asking similar questions (any many more!).

Synchronistic to call yourself thelynx, that particular animal seems to have something to do with questions, secrets and mysteries. I like lynxes, and I also love felines of all kinds :)

Looking forward to seeing what you write ✩

Yes, I've been drawn to the lynx because of its associations with wisdom and secrecy. I like to think of myself as an open book, but as I get to know myself better it's been surprising to discover how much I keep secret from myself and from those around me -- an especially strange discovery for someone who strives and aspires to constantly uncover hidden truths about herself and about the world.

Thank you for the warm welcome. :)

Welcome @thelynx to Steemit! You must have some connection to @kennyskitchen . Your interests seem very much inlign with mine so I'm hoping to connect with you more here on Steemit, perhaps Earthtribe! I followed you to see what your musings will be about.
To my fellow cat lover -
Meet JJ. He appears off and on in my blog.

What a sweetheart JJ looks to be (and what a lucky cat to live in such a forest)! I'm looking forward to connecting with you here too, and learning more about how our interests align. :)

So happy to have you joining us here on the wonderful STEEM blockchain my love! I greatly look forward to your message, your curiosity, and your beautiful self rippling out into the world through this portal :-)

I would recommend editing the post and adding more tags; you're allowed to have 5 per post, and they are what make your post visible to folks who haven't followed you yet. Maybe philosophy, spirituality, yoga... If you want to use the introduceyourself tag, that's one of the most read ones, but if you plan on putting out a longer biography at some point I'd hold off for that one, as it's generally frowned upon to use that tag more than once per account.

Upvoted, resteemed, and of course I was following you the minute we created your account :-)

Thank you! I was a bit baffled on which tags would be appropriate for a "hello world" post. I'll edit with your suggestions (and if you have any more ideas for tags, I'd love to hear them). So grateful for your support!

Thank you for introducing me to this world, my love. I'm looking forward to exploring it. <3
