This morning, I finally unfolded my yoga mat again. It’s been a minute. It would be a lie to say I’ve had a good work-life balance lately. Hence, being away for so long.

After a few months of freelancing and getting nothing, I had to find a new job. When I struggled to find a job, I had to rest my mind.

Thankfully, I could return to my old kickboxing club and spent a lot of time there to stay focused and manage my stress. This period led to some great experiences and inner growth.

After a few months, I landed a new job, and another job opportunity came in. My Airbnb season kicks off, and everything that involves logistics and management of an Airbnb in a remote area, making sure everyone is happy. Freelancing suddenly went bonkers, and we made new sales for our AI-transformational programs daily. At the same time, my own business took a backseat.

It’s been a rapid shift from 0 to 100, and I’ve been neglecting self-care. But I’ve stayed dedicated and patient and found acceptance very relaxing when there is less time for other practice.

“This is the time I am in now, but it’s not full—on forever “ has brought so much peace and comfort in the chaos.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve been feeling tired and tense, experiencing constant brain fog, and feeling pain all over my body. It’s easy to sit in solitude under a tree and feel good. But dealing with everything involved presents a real challenge, and that’s where past practice, mindfulness, and awareness come in handy.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There will be plenty of tears these following days on my mat, releasing tension and stress my body has stored these past months. But I’ve got some great things done, and I’m so glad to see the end of this period getting closer.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Flexibility, non-judgemental mindset, and acceptance help us a long way, and suddenly, we are back at it again 🌱
