Hello First name / friend , 

 

This is a watercolour page I created a year ago. It began as meditative brushwork, loosely repeating these shapes. The words that came to mind when I contemplated the painting were, “pockets of space for yourself.”  

As I looked through photos for today's email, this journal page spoke to me. The week was a busy and emotional last few days of school for my two children. From meals, to sleep and exercise, to down-time, our routines quickly were out of order and space for myself was feeling slim. 

 

There are weeks where you can think, "let's just get through this and then we'll sort things out next week”. And yet….here we are with two months of summer on the horizon and I will need to be very mindful in carving out space for myself in between the fun adventures. 

 

We all experience busy times - both fun-busy and stressful-busy. It's so vital for us to recognize and honour that we need space for ourselves. Space to move. Space to be still. Space to think. Space to process events, thoughts and feelings. 

 

 

I'd love to hear from you in our online community. Please join us, if you haven't already and feel free to post!
