đŹď¸ What if putting yourself first⌠wasnât selfish, but sacred?
What if honouring your energy, your breath, your boundaries â was actually the most efficient, integrity-filled way to move through your life?
Iâve come to understand this not just as a concept⌠but as lived, embodied truth.
Because when youâre not attuned to your needs â physical, emotional, energetic â decisions get clouded.
Communication gets complicated.
And you end up in commitments, relationships, or roles that drain you⌠instead of reflecting you at your best.
I see it all the time in my work, and Iâve lived it in my own life.
Weâre taught to override ourselves.
To perform at being present while abandoning whatâs real for us.
To stay in sync with whatâs expected⌠even when our breath is telling us to pause.
But when you come home to your breath â and start listening to your body, your thoughts, your nervous system â everything shifts.
Clarity gets faster.
Discernment gets easier.
You start acting from the truth of who you are, not the conditioning of who youâve had to be.
And that, my love, is what putting yourself first really means.
Itâs not an indulgence.
Itâs a powerful practice of inner leadership â one that serves not just you, but everyone around you.
đż If youâre feeling the call to deepen that connection, I always recommend starting with your breath because itâs the only consistent companion we have our entire lives.
And learning how to be with, work with and expand your breath, expands everything you can imagine and all the things you have no idea would be affected by a life well breathed đŹď¸
