A pause for reflection.
Over the last months, whenever I think of my BIG project, I find myself seizing up with tight shoulders, self doubt and overwhelm, with anxiety manifesting in my body. My mind has been protecting me by pushing the uncomfortable thoughts and feelings away, pretending that this task doesn’t exist, tuning myself out, getting busy with other tasks to fill time …and ended up procrastinating for months….
Enough is enough. Luckily with yoga, I am facing this imbalance inside and taking charge. I am so glad I finally took the courage and moved my a** 😅 Still, there is a nagging voice in my head that said ‘you should know better’.
Oh well, that will be musing for another rainy day…
Giving thanks to the wonderful opportunity to start my Research Project. Week 1 done, so much insight🙏 looking forward to week 2.
Now my body feels safe again, ready to move with the waves.
