I’ll be honest… rest has been hard for me lately.
I haven’t been getting to bed on time, and by the end of the day my mind is still going a hundred different directions.
One thing that has helped is getting the kids settled earlier.
When they’re finally down, I can start my own winding-down process — even if it’s not perfect or consistent.
Sometimes that looks like sitting in silence for a few minutes, turning on my diffuser with lemongrass, or just sipping something warm long enough to feel my shoulders drop.
I’m learning that rest doesn’t begin with a perfect routine…
It begins with one tiny decision that tells your body “you’re safe to slow down now.”
So if evenings feel hard for you too, try choosing just one small ritual tonight.
Not to fix your whole life… but to give your body a moment of calm after carrying so much.
Your soft life starts with one soft moment. 🤍
Which ritual are you choosing tonight?
