Luxury of Self Care

Happy Holidays! It's the week of Christmas and I am talking about all the ways I am surrendering into the holiday season. 

So much has happened in the past month and quite frankly, the past years. But this time of year always tends to be both joyous and depressing at the same time.

I share things I'm doing to truly "surrender" into this season and see what happens when I just "Believe and Breathe" through the not so joyous moments. In order to make more space for creativity, love and giving.

I can't make this sh*t up! With my life kinda in shambles, I've really been leaning into to "Patience" and "Time" this week. Meiko, Douglas and I are currently crashing at my Mom and Step-Dad's while our house is getting it's unplanned renovation. It's not only tough to find moments of self-care when you aren't living in your own home, but making sure to lather in as much communication as possible by sharing and asking for what you need. 

This weeks quotes:

"The two most powerful warriors are patience and time." -Leo Tolstoy

"One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. While one moment of impatience may ruin a whole life." -Chinese Proverb

"Patience is not simply the ability to wait, it's how we behave while we are waiting." -Joyce Meyer

This is the time of year that we are all getting financially nervous because we are starting to spend money for the holidays. Between gifts, travel and outings to get into the holiday spirit we spend money a lot quicker over the next couple months. But the first thing we decide to cut in order to save are our forms of self-care. Today I focus on ways we can still self-care and save. Navigating budget but not cutting the much needed self-care moments especially during this time of year.

First off, this is a friendly reminder to please express your right, and go vote today! Though that is not the theme of today's episode. 

I find that I can be an adaptor, or and chameleon to those around me. Especially to those I love the most or I am living with. Always wanting to do things with people and spend quality time with them. Whether it be projects, group fitness classes, an activity or just indulging in a self-care moment. Though that is not "self" time. Self-care can, and should be focused on things you do alone or on your own sometimes. Though it always looks different on me and all of us, today we focus on the "self" of self-care.

Due to high demand Chelsey is joining us again! It's been awhile since I've had a guest on the show and it was so nice to have her back. Chelsey is a delight to laugh with and we discuss relatable life changes, to black out days, to boundaries with our parents, to navigating ways to self care. You are going to find something in this episode that's relatable, makes you chuckle and/or think twice.

Coming back after fully indulging in my time with Chelsey. Taking a note of feeling content, instead of always striving and pushing for more. Fully diving into some things I have learned and taken note of during the past couple of weeks with her here. Being able to soundboard with her and learn tactics and tools to help me move forward and get things accomplished, while still be grateful for what I do have. 

Be sure to tune in next week with Chelsey's fabulous episode we also recorded today. You are not going to want to miss it!

I've always loved the quote by Thomas Jefferson: “NEVER PUT OFF FOR TOMORROW, WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY” though lately I've been having trouble sleeping due to stress and the list of things to do won't turn off in my brain and I can't fall back asleep. This episode goes over a few tips that I use to help ease me back to sleep, take note of that dreaded list and use a Mantra to assist me in relaxing back to sleep. 

My dear friend Chelsey, will be in town and on the next two episodes! If you have any topic ideas you would like to discuss, shoot me a DM on instagram and we will touch base on them.

It's Fall Y'all!! Also Douglas also just left for a mission for another 5 weeks. Sometimes good, comes with bad. Sometimes we are more depressed than usual. Sometimes we need consumerism for the next holiday, just to get in a pleasant mood. And sometimes we just need to block everything out, and have a blackout day to reflect and recharge in order to move forward. It's all okay to just be where you are at. If you are in a slump this episode may enlighten you a bit, or at least let you know you are not alone.

I'm BACK! Comparison is the true thief of joy. We must enjoy what we have been given and have created from that. Today I recognize I'm not perfect. We see how everyone floats through life but finding the true reality and being excited about that is what makes it great for you.
