Good Morning.... lets be kind to ourselves this weekend, take time out, regulate your nervous system, turn off devices, walk on the grass, spend time in the sun, breath.... its what our body is seeking out.... less is more, we would be wise to remember this.
We are living with our nervous systems braced - the world is on sympathetic overdrive, hearts racing, shoulders tight, breath shallow, hyperalert and hyperdisconnected. The news cycle never sleeps. Our devices never stop calling, with most people now seriously addicted. Our calendars leave no space for stillness - and lists, constant never-ending lists… Then we collapse into bed, mentally drained, and can’t sleep. We were not designed to live this way. Our bodies know the rhythm of tides, the hush of forests, the slow drift of clouds. Step into a forest, onto a beach or even into the back garden with your shoes off, and the pace changes. Spending time in that slower rhythm isn’t a luxury; it’s a way to remind our nervous system what balance feels like. In a world that won’t slow down for us, we can choose to slow down for ourselves. Put the wee phone down for 10 minutes and breathe - go on. Get outside, if it’s raining put on a coat. In a world that runs on overdrive, even a few minutes of nature can feel like an act of quiet rebellion. Your nervous system will thank you.☺️☺️☺️
