Daily Affirmation for June 28, 2025 to Kickstart Your Vibe
✨ Today's Affirmation: "I am safe, guided, and ready for the journey ahead—even if my heart needs a little extra time to catch up." 💫 Vibe Check: Feeling tense about a trip you didn't exactly choose? Whether it's for work, family, or something else, leaving your comfort zone can stir up all kinds of nerves. You're not alone. Today's energy invites you to make peace with the unknown. You don't have to be excited—just open. Let this chapter unfold gently, one breath at a time. 🧘♀️ Why This Works: When you're traveling under pressure, your nervous system can go into overdrive. This affirmation soothes the flight-or-fight response and helps you ground yourself in the fact that you're being taken care of, even in unfamiliar places. 🌿 Your Mini Mission: Ease into emotional security with these travel-prep rituals: – Pack a comfort item (yes, even if it's just a hoodie that smells like home). – Jot down one good thing that might come out of this trip, no matter how small. – Practice a grounding breath: In for 4, hold for 4, out for 6. Repeat three times when you feel the stress sneak in. 🎧 Power Up Playlist: Songs for traveling with courage, not fear: 'Unwritten' – Natasha Bedingfield 'Home' – Phillip Phillips 'Let Go' – Frou Frou 'Send Me On My Way' – Rusted Root 'Free' – Florence Arman 🔮 Bonus Energy Tip: Carry a small piece of black tourmaline. It's a powerful protection stone—great for travel, grounding, and shielding you from unwanted vibes. Hold it whenever you feel unsettled and say: "I am protected in every place I go."

Daily Affirmation for June 22, 2025 to Kickstart Your Vibe
✨ Today's Affirmation: 'I release what I can't control and focus on what lights me up.' 💫 Vibe Check: Feeling anxious? Like you're carrying the whole world on your shoulders? We get it. Some days, the weight of uncertainty can feel extra heavy. But here's your cosmic reminder: you don't have to hold it all together. You're allowed to breathe, to pause, to let go. Today's energy says — let that sh*t go and make space for what brings you peace. 🧘♀️ Why This Works: We live in a hustle-heavy world that celebrates burnout and busyness. But control is an illusion, and peace comes from within — not from having everything figured out. This affirmation calls you back to your center, reminding you to nurture what's in your power: your joy, your purpose, your presence. 🌿 Your Mini Mission: Let go of the pressure to micromanage every outcome. Try this instead: – Make a 'let it go' list: write down 3 things stressing you that you can't control — then tear it up. – Schedule 15 minutes for something that sparks joy: dancing, doodling, or just doing nothing. – Say this when anxiety creeps in: 'This moment is mine. I choose peace over panic.' 🎧 Peace Mode Playlist: For the days you need to exhale and come back to yourself: 'Let Go' – Frou Frou 'Breathe (2 AM)' – Anna Nalick 'Peace' – Taylor Swift 'Good Days' – SZA 'Gravity' – Sara Bareilles 🔮 Bonus Energy Tip: Light a candle or incense. Watch the flame or the smoke rise. As it moves freely, let it remind you: your energy flows best when it's not being boxed in. You're allowed to surrender. You're allowed to shine.

Frou Frou, Remy Zero Reunite For Los Angeles ‘Garden State' Anniversary Concert
More than 20 years since it became required listening for any mid-aughts music fan, the artists featured on the soundtrack to acclaimed indie film Garden State have come together in Los Angeles for a one-night only affair. Initially released in July 2004, Garden State served as the directorial debut for Scrubs star Zach Braff, and earned itself a nomination for the grand jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival. Though it avoided much of the Hollywood glitz and glamor, the film developed a cult following, thanks in part to its eclectic soundtrack. More from Billboard Kurt Cobain's Legendary 'MTV Unplugged' Acoustic Guitar to Go On Display For First Time in Europe Jordan Davis Slates Headlining Ain't Enough Road Tour: 'It's Going to Be Some Great Music' Guster Perform With Cast of 'Finn' After LGBTQ+ Musical Canceled Following Trump Kennedy Center Takeover Equally influential and acclaimed, the soundtrack collected names such as The Shins, Coldplay, and Iron & Wine as something of a snapshot of the era's indie landscape. Ultimately, the soundtrack peaked at No. 20 on the Billboard 200 and won the 2005 Grammy for best compilation soundtrack for visual media. In October 2024, it was announced a special concert celebration would take place at Los Angeles' Greek Theater on March 29, with proceeds from the affair going to benefit The Midnight Mission, a homeless shelter and services provider founded in L.A. in 1914. Promotion for the event promised appearances from (almost) every artist featured on the soundtrack, along with 'very special guests' by way of cast member appearances, and on Saturday (March 29), the full anniversary concert came to fruition. Artists such as The Shins were on hand to perform the likes of 'Caring is Creepy' and 'New Slang' (which attained widespread fame thanks to Natalie Portman's character insisting the song will 'change your life; I swear'), while Cary Brothers, Bonnie Somerville, Colin Hay, Thievery Corporation, Cary Brothers, and Sophie Barker of Zero 7 also appeared to perform their respective cuts. A handful of notable absences did alter the dream lineup, however. While pop heavyweights Coldplay weren't on hand to perform 'Don't Panic,' neither were Simon & Garfunkel available to run through 'The Only Living Boy in New York.' In their absence, Laufey and The Milk Carton Kids got up onstage to cover their songs, respectively. Likewise, Iron & Wine paid tribute to the late Nick Drake by adding a rendition of 'One of These Things First' to his scheduled performance. The event also resulted in a couple of rare performances from the likes of Frou Frou and Remy Zero. While Imogen Heap and Guy Sigsworth of Frou Frou have been active again since 2017, the pair had not performed live since 2019, with the Garden State concert seeing them appear onstage once again. Remy Zero, meanwhile, broke up in 2010 and reformed exclusively for the Saturday concert. The band largely reunited to play their 1998 track 'Fair,' though they also used the opportunity to provide fans with a chance to hear the track 'Save Me,' which found fame as the theme to Smallville from 2001 to 2011. On the non-musical front, the event also featured appearances from both Braff and Portman, while Danny DeVito (an executive producer on the original film), and Braff's former Scrubs co-stars Donald Faison and Sarah Chalke took to the stage to partake in the festivities and the fundraising efforts. For those that missed out on the event, the concert will be available to purchase for streaming from April 6. Proceeds from the stream will also be donated to The Midnight Mission.
