Every time this year, I feel as though I embody a version of myself that’s been hibernating most of winter, and all of a sudden, there’s SO much more movement.
So since the launch of my book back in the beginning of the winter, I came down with COVID. That was unexpected.
It was a slow mental and even physical climb back into “normalcy,” whatever that really meant.
Workouts at the gym were slower and lighter, and I even found myself not fully 100% until about February.
Then somehow the magic of the fun date, 2-22-2022 on a Tuesday got me excited. Not sure why, but things started to shift, and I was finding myself back into the version of me I became familiar with - creative, inspired, focused, and yet, still human: wanting safety, connection, and quite plainly, love.
I’ve been on and off with my writing and I was trying to figure out why.
It’s because sometimes it can get really intimate and deep–with myself. That can be a little daunting sometimes, just as I learned from when I wrote the manuscript to “pleasing me” and going through its consequent revisions.
I recognized that this was an opportunity to take that daunting task and turn it into magic.
I was writing, creating, collaborating and resting, just in different ways!
Since, I’ve crafted and launched my latest course, “21 Days of Body Peace: Your Personal Pathway to feeling good naked, and finding peace with the skin you’re in”
I’ve co-facilitated virtual workshops, found myself back at podcasting, re-reading books and even my own book, to nourish my mind, and even took a solo trip to San Diego, California.
And tonight, I get to celebrate myself as what I affirmed today for myself at my Author’s Gala celebration:
“I am a divinely supported and greatly loved generational curse breaker.”
I am the first author of my family.
I am a model for a way of mindful work and wellness.
I am proud of myself for taking on the responsibilities of creating all that I am meant to, with the people I’m meant to be with, and I am stepping fully into this, today.
Thank you for simply being you, in my corner, by my side, always: supporting and loving me through all the movement.
