A Journey of Patience and Compassion…

I received a message earlier this week to “Be more patient with myself”

I had a healing session yesterday with the resounding theme of needing to be more compassionate with myself and to let go of the things that are heavy within me and no longer serving a purpose.

I can’t do it all…

And yes, it really hit home with me.

I am a busy bee, always have been, jumping from one task, project and event to the other. But lately, I have been feeling it. Feeling it in a way of hearing myself sigh A LOT, talking to myself about what “needs” to get to done and what can wait, spending hours writing and typing on the computer and loads of brainstorming.

Yesterday, it hit me like a wall…I am friggin TIRED

Love what I do but man alive I am tired.

So I have made a commitment to myself to do more of what makes me feel greater compassion to myself.

I work with people daily; mainly women, and talk to them about making sure to honour themselves and take the time to move, nourish, hydrate, breath, write and find some inner joy.

I’ve created a life where most of it happens daily but what I don’t do often enough is to just stop and PAUSE; to look at how far I come and just sit in it to enjoy before jumping on to the next thing. I am not offering “patience” or ponder to myself and need to.

I bust my ass off everyday and work very hard to create the business and life and I want. It is NOT perfect or easy or blissful or filled with SIMPLICITY most days of the week. Usually it is me chasing down the clock to get everything done, looking at the pile of emails I just can’t get to today and staring at my ever-growing to do list and then ultimately making the decision to stop and sit with my family and go to bed early.

To be honest; most posts I write about living your dream, taking the steps to make it happen, believing in yourself, keep going etc I write for me too:-)

I don’t know exactly what my journey of patience or compassion will “look” like but I definitely know how I want it to feel.

“I cannot do everything but I can do something and I will not let the things I can’t do interfere with what I can”
