It is late October and I have been burning the wick at both ends. You know what it’s like. Trying to accomplish more than is possible during waking hours. You are spinning too many plates and you begin to watch them crash to the ground in slow motion. Of course, then you criticize yourself for dropping the ball on this or that. The pressure builds until you can’t help but face it.
I am at that point and taking a much needed vacation. There is something amazing about vacations, leaving your normal routine behind and suspending your life. It gives us a chance to step back and witness our lives (and our schedules). Stepping out of your daily grind gives you a chance to pause and reflect. What are your priorities? Are you on auto-pilot or conciously experiencing your days?
With time and space to really evaluate their situation, many people come back from vacation with not only renewed energy, but with a new perspective. Sometimes it results in changes to your routine or schedule that weren’t serving you. Sometimes it affects the way in which you choose to move forward with a particular relationship. Either way, vacations are a great way to slow down, reflect and consider how to connect with greater awareness upon your return. That is my desire for myself.
I want to introduce you to a dear friend of mine, WendyCuba-Danca. Wendy is a wellness coach and she has been kind enough to offer to guest blog for me over the next two weeks. I hope you enjoy her musings as much as I have.
Warmest regards,
Karen
