As a mother and human with a full life, I have to intentionally prioritize taking space for myself.
I have to schedule it and then guard it.
I have to honor the importance of it.
When I do not, it is so easy for me to fall back into putting everyone else around me first.
I have gotten really good at finding moments for myself throughout the day. I have become a master at weaving in those spaces for myself.
I homeschool and I work out of my house, so this has not been an easy feat. However, I take pauses for water, MELTing, time outside, breathing, meditation, movement, naps (on the rare chance I can lie down!), etc.
But carving out the longer spaces, more than a pause, takes a larger intentional choice.
This year I am committed to consistent solo trips away from my family. As a way to prioritize my own body, being, needs and desires.
Alone space and time is a portal.
A portal to return to when I need to sense my self.
When I need to process and integrate something.
When I want to celebrate something!
When I desire to amplify my essence.
Space to take separate from my kids, from the roles I play, from the expectations that I put on my self and my business.
A gateway to reconnect to my vibration and how I can energetically desire to BE in the world.
I need to be able to show up in my fullest essence and frequency because that will serve the people in my life in the most generative way.
Can this be as simple as starting with creating SPACE for myself?
Why yes, it can!
