Is it just me, or did Fall suddenly just happen?! It seems to have crept up and then landed...hard.
I usually feel inclined to refresh in September yet it felt so "summery" that I kept doing what I was doing. Now? It's definitely Fall!
So, back to the question...what are you ready to get back to? And, perhaps further to that, is there something you need to let go of to bring that back?
We are now in yet another phase of getting "back to normal", whatever that may mean to you. For some, that may mean starting to go back into the office; going to get your groceries rather than getting them delivered; heading back to the gym vs. online workouts. Again...whatever pops up for you.
For me? A couple of things have bubbled up recently.
Writing, journaling. For some reason I have let this habit slip away. So I started again this morning, just a paragraph or two. What did I need to let go of in order to do that? The idea in my head that it wasn't important enough to spend time on. Basically not true.
Increasing the intensity of the working out I have been doing. I moved on to a more challenging online workout and, based on how sore I am today, it seems to be working! I had to let go of the idea that going to the gym was the only way to get that kind of workout. Again, not true.
Getting outside in ALL types of weather. I had started to let the grey, rainy days be my excuse for not getting outside. I had to let go of summer!! This might have been the toughest one.
How about you?
What are you ready to get back to? Is there something you need to let go of in order to start again?
So let's get to it...
Are you willing to try this out?
Your challenge for the next week...
Check in with yourself.
Ask yourself "what am I ready to get back to"? Allow whatever surfaces to be the "thing". It doesn't have to be a big thing at all. Just trust what comes up.
Then? Ask yourself...is there something I need to let go of to do this?
Then do it. One little thing. See what happens.
If you're ready to get intentional about how you're showing up, Contact me for a chat. It's always good to hear from you!
Stay safe and well.
Warmly,
