SaY YES to Self Care
Self care is an elusive thing. It’s really not about a massage, a pedicure, or a bubble bath… Although, Hello! They are wondrous! True self care starts from within. It’s a willingness to be true to yourself in a way that too few are courageous enough to be. It’s giving yourself permission to be vulnerable, to question and to be OK with messy answers, and to allow pain, judgment, and expectations to take a backseat to your happiness. It takes courage and it takes a strong will. Isn’t it time you make a commitment to yourself? You won’t regret it. Let me help.
Volition:
{vo-lish’un} (n.) the act of willing or choosing: the act of forming a purpose; to choose on one’s own volition
Who are you to Soar? Who are You Not To?
Are you uninspired, feeling stuck? Have you forgotten how to experience joy? Do you have ideas and plans for whom you aspire to be yet never act on them because you don’t know where to start? I call it BBS, Bird in a Box Syndrome. We all have glorious wings with which to fly yet we can oftentimes feel confined as though we’re in a box with the lid shut tight. We don’t know how we got in the box and we surely never saw that lid coming down. And so, we sit or we pace with our beautiful wings tucked neatly beneath us, waiting for someone or something to pull that lid off. I’ve got news for you. That someone is you. It’s always been you. Are you ready to soar?
.01
Embrace
Embrace the place you’re in. Seriously. Squeeze it tight! There are lessons to be learned and insight to be gained from right where you are. Don’t rush it and don’t resist it. Breathe. Let it come. What’s it trying to teach you? What’s it trying to say? Are you listening, really listening?
.02
Create
Create new habits and rituals that support the changes you want to see or experience. Think outside the box but take your time. Lasting change takes time. Be patient with yourself and allow your intuition to guide you. Trust in it.
.03
Elevate
Elevate your mindset and embody the version of you that you aspire to be. Lean into it and fill out your potential. With patience and self-care, your authentic self will morph into that renewed vision you have for yourself and you will be forever changed.
Walk the Walk
“Talking the talk” and “Walking the walk” are two completely different things. Wouldn’t you agree? How simple is it to speak from a place of strength and self-worth (the Talk) but then do things like self-sabotaging behaviors or make other destructive choices (The Walk)? Show of hands, please! (My hand is up!) I have found that literally talking and walking in nature is a powerful and cathartic experience. There is a certain vulnerability that takes hold when you’re surrounded by the beauty of mountains, rivers, and the Big Sky, the type of vulnerability that is necessary when we’re ready to dig deep. It’s humbling and it inspires me daily. Walk with me.
