Hello Lovely One,
This morning I’ve been pondering an email I recently received from a friend who is just re-entering her “business life” after taking a post-concussion-brain-care sabbatical.
Her message took me back to a year where I put my own “regular life” on pause to care for myself when my auto-immune system went bonkers.
Since that time, I’ve been learning to listen more sharply to my inner impulses that tell me to stop.
When I listen closely I know when it’s time to put myself in “time-out” from the routine of my life. When I don’t listen, the signals get stronger and stronger. Sometimes the body just says, “Stop!” It can knock me off my feet so that not stopping isn’t an option.
Now, here we are at the Solstice. Even the movement of the sun appears to stop for several days.
But isn’t this often the way of it? Often the times we need to take a pause and stop are the times when life feels unbelievable full. With that in mind I’ve included a powerful “stop” practice that can be done almost anywhere, anytime …. and it only takes a minute.
Experiment with this practice for an entire week. I’d enjoy hearing about what you notice.
Stopping in this moment with you,
Sharon |
