Thanks to @spadeandplow for the inspiration and amazing, fun produce to provide the inspo, @thecheeseshop1 for the young gruyere to provide that extra bit of creaminess, and @joycewinecompany for the perfect pairing with their Submarine Canyon chardonnay.

Beach reads.

Rest, stimulation, inspiration, more rest. Nature, nurture, nature and a dose of that vitamin D. 🌞 Times of stress call for going in, exploring the shadows and darkness, seeing what lies within, which I've always been good at. The reemergence, however, has always been a boomerang for me. You've wallowed enough; time to get back to work. Try to make up for lost time. Guilty for taking the time and making the time.

When I teach asana, I always stress to release slowly, to not let the body boomerang back to it's previous shape. In engaging the muscle to stay as The hand, gravity, the prop releases, we build strength in our flexibility, strength at the end range. As within so without, right? To slowly emerge from rest, introspection, and nurturing, we build strength, finding our way back with more ease, instead of knee-jerk-return from busybuzzybizzydizzy to collapsing into "rest".

Stop, pause, rest.

🍂🍃🍂
It's that time of year to snuggle into your nest. Take some time to rest. Pause and reflect. It's time to do doing and just BE.

🍂🍃🍂
And in that being, see who you are right now.

Happy Thanksgiving. May you find plenty of time to just be this weekend and this season.

day 19: treasured (time)
.

Treasured time to check in with myself. This has been a theme lately. How much time do you dedicate to checking in with work, email, social media, your family versus checking in with yourself? How does your body feel? The muscle tissue, the joints, the bones? What is the state of your mind? What thoughts are playing on loop up there? How often do you say, "How am I right now?"
.
Self-care is health care. Self-care starts with understanding what's happening in the Self. Check in.
