Good morning beautiful people,
I do hope that you are safe and healthy, wherever you are in the world.
Most of us seem to devote ourselves to everyone and everything but ourselves.
We rush to please, we rush to make sure we have done the right thing, we rush to attend a social gathering or simply rush to be on time everywhere. Then, we wonder why we feel so tired!
What if the second half of 2023 was about making sure our inner cup is filled with nourishing behaviours, letting go of the rush rush rush and putting ourselves first, remembering that our mental and physical well-being is a direct reflection of how we live our life.
What if there was gold to be found in slowing down? Studies show that the better we self care and act slow, the more productive we become. It does sound odd, but it turns out we enter a sense of flow, trusting our inner gold and guidance.
So here is the deal, I am tired of rushing, and trying to do the right thing constantly. That imaginary pressure is old, and anyone abinding to any kind of pressure, will naturally deflate.
So my wish for us all today, is that we thrive in all areas of our lives, feeling aligned, guided and obviously at peace.
May we be healthy
May we be present
May we be free
With love and deep respect
Vanessa
