Hello Beautiful Soul!

Life moves fast, but the moments that often matter most are the simple ones we share with the people we love. In this video, I’m taking you with us to my son’s 2-day baseball tournament in Poway. We’ll cheer him on, enjoy some picnic-style meals together, and talk about being more intentional with the time we have. It doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive.

Sometimes, the simplest things become the most meaningful memories.

Along the way, I’ll also share my quick go-to picnic food ideas: flavorful chicken wings, crispy potato wedges, and refreshing coleslaw. These are easy to prepare and perfect for a casual day out with family.

If you’re looking for encouragement to slow down, savor the present, and make space for the people you love, this video is for you.

Hello Beautiful Soul!
Just like the seasons change, our lives go through shifts. There are moments of growth, rest, joy, and challenge. Each one has a purpose. In this video, I’m sharing how I’m learning to embrace my current season while cooking some healthy and refreshing summer recipes, and reflecting on the beauty of spiritual growth, discipline, and intentional living.
What season of life are you in right now, and what is God teaching you through it?

Just like the seasons change, so do the chapters of our lives. Some seasons feel warm and full of growth, while others feel quiet, slow, or even challenging. Each season has its own purpose, shaping us, teaching us, and preparing us for what is ahead.

If you find yourself in a gloomy season, instead of focusing on the darkness, look for the small rays of light. Notice the moments of gratitude, the lessons you are learning, and the strength you are building. Even the coldest winter prepares the ground for spring.

If you find yourself in a bright season, thank God, be grateful, and be a blessing to others. Use your season of abundance to encourage, help, and inspire someone who may be going through their own winter.

Your current season will not last forever. Trust the process, lean on God’s timing, and remember that beauty can grow even here.💛

Also, we will be talking about how to achieve your goal without overwhelming yourself. This video will remind you to celebrate small wins, appreciate the simple joy, and slow down.

Life comes with many cares, responsibilities, challenges, and burdens we carry each day. But when things start to get out of hand and feel too heavy to manage, burnout begins to creep in. If we’re not careful, it can slowly unravel everything we’ve worked so hard to build. That’s why it’s okay to pause. It’s okay to rest your body and quiet your mind. Rest isn’t weakness, it’s wisdom.💛

Hello Beautiful Soul!

In this video, I’m opening up about something many of us quietly struggle with: burnout. Life gets overwhelming, and when we don’t pause, we reach a point of exhaustion, losing joy, motivation, and peace. I'm sharing my personal story of working long hours, pushing myself too hard, and finally learning how to rest physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

While I reflect on this, join me as I:
• Sew simple rustic-style curtains and a coffee table liner
• Clean and decorate our living and dining area
• Upcycle a light stand using my favorite DIY hack
• Talk about how I found healing through rest, hobbies, and faith

This is more than just a homemaking vlog. This is a moment to slow down and breathe. If you're overwhelmed, I hope this brings you calm, comfort, and encouragement.

Hello Beautiful Soul!

Time truly flies, and sometimes we get so caught up in the hustle and cares of life that we forget to breathe. But this is not how God wants you to live. He does not want you to carry constant anxiety or feel overwhelmed every day. His desire is for you to experience peace and joy in the blessings He has lovingly placed around you.

Take a moment to pause. Feel the warmth of the sun, breathe in the refreshing sea breeze, and notice the beauty of nature all around you. These are gentle reminders of God’s love and presence.

You are not meant to just survive each day. You are meant to live it fully!

I used to live life like a checklist, rushing from one task to the next, always chasing productivity. But one day, I realized I was missing the beauty of the present. I was overwhelmed, anxious, and disconnected from what truly mattered.

Now, I’m choosing to slow down.

To live intentionally. To find peace in the little things, cooking from scratch, tending to plants, making home feel like home.

Even in the city, I’m bringing in the warmth of country living, one quiet, meaningful step at a time.

I’m also learning to care for my body, naturally and holistically after years of ignoring what it needed.

This is the life I’ve been longing for.

And if you’re on a similar journey toward slow living, healing, and purpose, I’d love for you to walk with me.

Hello Beautiful Soul!

My name is Lyka.

After years of rushing through life, I began to long for slow living, peace, purpose, and healing. So I started a journey, bringing the warmth of country living into our city home, learning the rhythms of homemaking as a beginner, and choosing a healthier and more natural path to support my body through hormonal imbalances and fertility struggles.

This page is where I share the little things that bring meaning and comfort: quiet routines, simple crafts, nourishing habits, and honest reflections. If you are seeking rest for your soul, gentle homemaking, and a more intentional and natural way of living and healing, I would love for you to join me.

Let us take it one quiet and meaningful step at a time, together. 🍃💛
