Happy Holidays everyone!
\nAs we talk about holiday preparations and plans, my empathic self asks why (you may hide it with a smile but you are literally hurting me while you share your stress with me). Why do we jump through hoops and stress ourselves out over gifts, decorations, and expectations? It started with love and how we want to share joy but we hang out in the position of lack/fear of not having and next thing you know we can't wait for this time of year to be over.
\nCould you take a few seconds to allow yourself a break? Could you extend those few seconds to bask in the joy of self-care, no matter the size and effort? Then could you ask yourself if what is creating the feeling of dissonance, whether it is stress, overwhelm, anxiety, or straight up haterade, is in your highest good? If it isn't, could you change your course of action to get back to joy?
\nI think we need to heal the holidays. I'm not saying the holidays are bad but what I am asking is if the energy we bring to it is in our highest good. Every now and then (sometimes multiple times a day) I need to take a break and check myself. Am I happy with what I'm doing? What is my intention? That is what I propose. When we start to feel like it isn't fun anymore, take a moment for yourself and get back to the joy.

Have you ever stopped and thought, my life is so far from what I remember it being. For me, it was when I had my first kid. The days following his birth were full of this disconnected feeling, like I had no idea what was next. Everyone says motherhood changes you and my gah, they weren't kidding. Those baby blues got me and they got me hard. I wasn't debilitated with sadness but I've described this feeling at other times in my life as if i had no baseline or emotional/mental gauge, as if i was ungrounded. I only compounded the feeling by retreating and being a hermit. I withdrew from most of my friends and wouldn't allow myself being away from my baby. I was struggling to reconcile what I thought I needed to be vs what I was craving to be. That kid is 7 years old now and I'm just starting to feel like myself again. In the flow, doing things for me, and not worrying about who gets upset on the way... wait what?! If you felt that "wait what?!" then you misunderstand. There's nothing wrong with doing things for you when it's heart centered. Doing what makes your heart happy fills you up with energy. It helps you illuminate so that you could be a bright inspiring light for those around you. This is a big part of my journey. Being a mom, or even a spouse, doesn't mean giving up your life to make someone else a priority. It means taking care of yourself so that you can be there to support the other person.

If that means letting yourself workout, do it.
If that means letting yourself pamper or groom yourself, do it.
If that means giving yourself 5 minutes for meditation, do it.
If that means crushing da candy for 5 minutes, do iiiiit.

Do you recall how good it feels after giving yourself that? I was pretty addicted to Word Blast for a hot second. If I was feeling stressed, I would allow myself a quick game and it was energizing. Whatever floats your boat, do it. But make sure you do something you love.

I challenge you to think of 3 things you can do on a daily basis that bring you joy. Think of something. When you need it, and oh you'll know, turn to any one of these 3 things. I want to hear about it.

Take what resonates and leave what doesn't ✌
