Overwhelm Guilt

Sunday Jan 08, 2023

Sunday Jan 08, 2023

Once your body and brain hits “overwhelm”, the only way “out” is by doing nothing. At this point, we must create the space for stillness, solitude, and silence. 
 
When we feel guilt, it means that according to us, we have behaved in a manner that we’re not proud of. 
 
Overwhelm guilt occurs when we feel as if we’re doing something wrong when we prioritize rest. 
 
I invite you to consider these questions:
 
What is your brain telling you that you’re guilty for?
When do you push yourself past capacity in order to keep taking care of others?
What is the worst thing someone else might think or say about you if you take a break to rest?
When do you notice arguing with your body’s needs?

Temporary Regret

Saturday Jan 07, 2023

Saturday Jan 07, 2023

When we let go of things, habits, experiences, and relationships, we experience some level of regret. 
 
I invite you to consider these questions:
 
How do you handle regret - do you allow, resist, or avoid it?
How willing are you to experience regret?
What are you resisting letting go of due to fear of missing out in the future?
What are you in the habit of thinking that creates regret?
By being willing to experience regret, what will you create the space to experience instead?

Doing Hard Work

Thursday Jan 05, 2023

Thursday Jan 05, 2023

We raise our self-esteem and confidence by achieving something we perceive to be difficult:
 
“The surest path to high self-esteem is to be successful at something you perceived would be difficult. Each time we steal our students’ struggle by insisting they do work that is too easy for them, we steal their opportunity  to have an esteem-building experience. Unless kids are consistently engaged in challenging work, they will lose their motivation to work hard.”
Sylvia B. Rimm, Ph.D.
Why Bright Kids Get Poor Grades and What You Can Do About It
I invite you to consider these questions:
 
What are you willing to experience that may be challenging or difficult?
When do you notice wanting someone to steal your struggle?
What work are you doing that’s too easy?
When are you engaged and lit up?
How motivated are you to squirm?

The Chaos of Change

Wednesday Jan 04, 2023

Wednesday Jan 04, 2023

Sunday Jan 01, 2023

When we receive GIFTS or PRESENTS, we may choose to:
 
keep them
exchange them
return them
 
We want to KEEP only what aligns with our values. 
We want to EXCHANGE what is just not compatible with the “size” of our spirit. 
We want to RETURN limiting beliefs, obligations, and expectations that others dump on us. 
 
Consider these questions:
 
What do you want to KEEP doing?
What do you want to EXCHANGE or differentiate to better meet your needs?
What do you want to RETURN? In other words, what did someone else give you (without your permission) that you are ready to give back?

Holiday Habits

Friday Dec 30, 2022

Friday Dec 30, 2022

It’s important to create habits, routines, and systems that work with your strengths and natural tendencies. 
 
Here are a few of my favorite holiday habits:
 
I batch similar tasks together to enhance efficiency and save time. 
I “tabata” home and work tasks so that I create variety in my day and can make progress on multiple projects at once. 
I set a timer for 15 minute increments that will alert me to drink water. 
I prioritize time for:
Silence
Solitude
Stillness
