Honoring Where You Are

Hello!

Before continuing reading, take a few deep breaths. 

​How are you feeling right now?  Where are you with your energy?

So often we do not take stock of where we are at in any given moment.  Our to do list is ever expanding, does it grow on its own?? People need things of us, plus what about our goals??

Today I honored my energy level.  I was about to go out for a walk.  And I thought "I just don't want to."  The success was that I stopped and listened!  I said to myself "ok, what would I like to do" and I heard "yoga."  When I do yoga on the spot like that, I set up blankets outside, and do a yoga video, usually Yoga with Adriene :)

I found a video that felt right and enjoyed delicious yoga outside.  The routine was mostly laying down so I enjoyed doing most of the yoga video with my eyes closed.  I just completed my exercise, and I feel replenished.

I feel replenished because I honored myself, with where I was at!  How often do you check in with yourself and see where you are at through out the day?

How might it influence your day?

I can speak for myself, and I'm betting a lot of you ladies feel similarly.  My energy level fluctuates a lot.  So at any given point in the day, I may not have the energy for what I planned on doing at that time of day.  Yes, I am currently dealing with and healing very serious fatigue, but I know so many other women that complain of the same exact things, or worse, are actually diagnosed with an auto immune condition.

I want to encourage you, to check in with yourself several times through out the day, and see where you are at.  See what would make you feel best.  This is the easiest to do with what you eat, what you do for exercise, and the order of your to do list.  

Just take a minute to breath deeply and see what would make you feel more whole next.  Or fill you up just a little bit more.  My personal goal is to be overflowing, as Lisa Nichols says.  I want my cup to be "so overflowing that I have more than enough to give you from my saucer".

Practice self love, do a 1 minute check in several times through out the day, and honor whatever arises.

Sending love, Jessica
