It has been an odd summer
COVID messing with plans and opportunities to connect
Unexpected periods of isolation
Shortages on the shelves
Illness
Sudden shifts in how we are being asked to respond to the world
Many clients calling, naming their exhaustion and a wondering how they are going to cope with the year ahead
Naming a generalised anxiety
As we collectively wonder what is to come next?
We make space for the experience to become known
And speak about going back to basics
I ask clients to name 3 things and 3 people, that have consistently filled their cup in the past
I hear of rock climbing, long baths, old school friends, journaling, baking, neighbours, meditation, yoga, swimming in the ocean with a group of girls, partners, pets and the like
Whatever it is for you, go there
Invest in those 3 things every day
Whoever those 3 people are
Invest in them in too
Take time to be with your experience
Take time to connect
And Invest in your self-care
Make this your practice
Multiple times a day
Love Sarah xx
