Hey Faithers! Welcome Back! Happy Monday!
Welcome to Episode 48;I am not doing my best at work! We are in our new series, "Grieving as an adult."
In episode 48, we discuss being an adult, grieving, and why we are not doing our best at work. Whether you are a 9-5 worker, student, entrepreneur, or part-time worker, we are feeling the season's woes and may not be showing our best. Let's discuss why this might be!
We picked cards from The Body Gratitude Deck of Cards and Butterfly Affirmations.
Card 1: "I am a unique child of the Universe, perfectly me, exactly as I am meant to be."
Card 2: "Life doesn't have to be perfect in order for me to choose happiness. Today I choose happiness.
The Body Gratitude Deck of Cards:
Card 3: "Our ability to connect with others is innate, wired into our nervous systems, and we need connection as much as we need physical nourishment." Sharon Salzberg
"Thank you for allowing me to experience the warmth of connection."
1.) We are all feeling the seasonal woes.
2.) You may not know that you are grieving. You could be grieving your kids, the life before you were an adult, your marriage, or any loved one you lost.
3.)It does not matter what type of "adult worker" you are (9-5, full-time, part-time, first shift, 3rd shift, school, stay-at-home mom, entrepreneur, etc.) We will all feel unmotivated, and like we are not living up to our best selves. Sometimes showing up to work is the battle, but we must understand that it is the season, and we might be grieving and lacking boundaries.
4.) You have the right to set boundaries between yourself and work. No is a complete sentence.
5.) Even if taking a break from work is not an option, find 5-10 minutes every hour to sit with yourself, be creative, take a lunch break, and find little loop holes like taking out the trash or going to the bathroom to get a few minutes to yourself while at work. To be our best selves, we must find time throughout the day to cater to us and take breaks.
Affirmation: "I am worthy of being healthy while I work. I can work, grieve, set boundaries, and still be my best self. All of this can exist at the same time."
