Grateful Friday neighborhood walk through the woods and back again. 🌳🍄🚶‍♀️

I don’t know about you, but it seems like sometimes the Universe really needs to kind of smack us over the head before we’re able to take the hint. 🥹

For as much as I felt like I was slowing down, creating space and letting go generally in my life, my body was telling me differently. 😌

Several insights came to light when I was forced to stop basically all activity — even the most routine, taken-for-granted habits — last month.

As much as I try to accept the inevitable change and flow of life, it was an interesting experience to notice where strong clinging and resistance were very much still present.

Listen to “Ep35: Power of the Pause” coming soon on Oct 15! 🎧🧘‍♀️💗

Last month I suffered from several ailments, one after the other. 🥹 The grand finale was throwing out my back to the point where I could barely move.

The Universe apparently wanted me to slow down even more, and I took the hint.

“And I realize most profoundly now, writing about it all, how we (modern day humans generally, women specifically, and ESPECIALLY mothers) never really have that opportunity. We aren’t “allowed” to slow down, pause and take care of ourselves and our needs – sometimes even when we are forced to. Either because of our circumstances, our own internal engine that urges us to keep going past the brink, or a combination of the two, we rarely stop to take the time to simply rest, practice stillness, or embrace our own self-love and self-care. If there’s anything last month taught me, it’s that all of the above is imperative for our well-being. Rest, pausing, honoring, allowing our reality, nurturing and loving ourselves through it, are not luxuries, they are necessary for survival.”

We were never meant to carry it all alone.

We need each other.

We need to learn to ask for help when we need it *and* be generous in whatever ways we’re able (time, money, attention, presence, care) to give it.

Yesterday I took part in TELL’s “Step Up” 2026 challenge — taking 19,188 steps for every life lost to su***de in Japan last year. 😌

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve just recovered from throwing out my back to start (moving and) walking again, so I was unfortunately unable to do all 19,188… but I did my best! 💪💗✨ And decided to literally (and emotionally) carry that number with me as I took a long walk around my local dam.

September has certainly been a bit of a surprise. It seems like I’ve been physically suffering one thing after another — and then back again.

I spent a lot of time laying on the floor immobile when I was hoping to start enjoying the cooler temperatures outdoors, not to mention preparing for an annual local fun run in November.

But, despite all of the pain, discomfort and frustration (of which there was plenty), I also found myself extremely grateful for the life I have created so that I wasn’t forced to go into work or use sick days etc. I obviously needed to slow down and rest, and I was able to do so. What a gift.

As I took a slow and thoughtful first tentative walk along my usual morning run river path yesterday, I appreciated how much I have healed and what I’m able to do again.

Simply being able to walk again — what a gift.

Seeing — and taking in — the good, stopping to smell the flowers and see their beauty amidst all the weeds. ☺️❤️🌼

What are you grateful for this Friday?
