I've been "off" since September.
It all had to stop.
The hustle.
The grind.
The constant multitasking.
The over scheduling.
The over giving.
The putting my self care on the back burner.
It all had to stop.
I've been "off" since September, and I put that word in quotations because every mom out there knows there are no "off" days in the hood... (ya know, motherHOOD)...
Since September, I've been tending to my body - holding space for her to heal, to grow stronger, and speak clearly the words I've ignored for too long.
Since September, I've been tending to my spirit - taking space to see where we're at in this painfully beautiful metamorphosis called life.
Since September, I've been lovingly observing my mind - taking note of what old stories still like to hop in the driver's seat from time to time...

I've always been a creature who needs periods of deep rest and reflection, and what I know about this season of life is that I can no longer survive on breadcrumbs.
I can no longer override the wisdom of my body and the voice of my heart to accommodate to the story someone else has written.
I am the author of this magical life, and I think it's time I promote myself to main character. π
... to all my burnt out friends and followers, to all the parents, entrepreneurs, and perimenopausal baddies out there... to the hustlers, the overachievers, to the chronic illness warriors and all the beautiful humans who believe they're not enough, not worthy, or have a nervous system programmed to make them feel like they have to EARN rest -
π LET'S KNOCK THAT S**T OFF, K?!
You are worthy. You're enough. Rest is not a privilege.
As for me, I'm back at the end of the month. Stay tuned for a π kickoff you won't wanna miss.
....
**ps, I had the privilege to offer some outdoor yoga for Lakes Area Wellness Collective and scored some awesome πΈ action shots by Kylee Noelle Photography.
Go give their pages a follow to peep all the fun things they're up to.
