A little personal reflection // I’ve been wiped out lately, lingering cold, bad eye and a migraine that won’t shift (the kind where you think you can still function okay because there’s no head pain but the anxiety, sensitivity to smell, light and sound alongside dizziness says otherwise).
The guilt that flares up as someone in the space I’m in struggling but also remembering that this is why I love & advocate for what I share because it’s what has helped me so much.
So time to fill up my own cup. In doing so though, I caught myself last week creating a “project plan” to make me feel better, I kid you not, I opened up excel and created myself a 3month plan with unrealistic and unachievable milestones of things I was going to do to daily & weekly to make myself feel better, which I wouldn’t achieve and would only make me feel worse. Created purely from the head and completely setting myself up for failure (seems the programme manager is still in there 😜 even after all this time away from the corporate world).
I’m all for the masculine energy coming in to help us get things done, it’s a much needed and appreciated energy, but this plan allowed no space for rest. It was purely hitting targets. No space for actually noticing how I feel, listening to my body’s wisdom and giving her what she needs minute by minute, hour by hour, day to day. No grace for flow. I smiled, had a good laugh at myself and screwed up the plan. Time to listen to my body’s wisdom and give her what she needs, flow a little more, spiral and weave ♥️
