Today’s WORD of the day was/is *Clarity*.
.
This may sound like complete hogwash to some but it was a God nod to me.
.
So I had a total Self-Care day! I feel so clear – refreshed – cleansed – calm. This is the FIRST TIME in NOT just 7.5months (wow it’s been that long postpartum already 😲) BUT add on the 40 weeks prior to that! So basically. The first time in a long time I’ve felt this refreshed.
.
My day didn’t start off this way though. Via was up multiple times through the night and her last time was 3-4:30am. Then with a 5:30am alarm *wake-up to workout*, I was dreading getting up and talking myself into staying in bed. BUT at that point I was wide awake so got up anyway. {Had FOMO of my fellow virtual fit fam sooo. up. I. got. even if I was in sloth mode.}
.
Today was my last day before back to my campus work routine. I’ve been on struggle bus – up and down – with the closing of my studio and routine change. I decided to just have an open mind and go with the flow today. Literally!
.
After dropping the kiddos off I headed out. I took a Warm Flow Yoga class. I just went by myself – for myself. It was some much needed *self-care, recharging, and cleansing*. While there I had a memory of another yoga experience and the instructor saying “set an intention this morning for yourself and your practice”. The word Clarity popped in my head. I’ve been praying and seeking clarity for a few things recently. I felt a sense of comfort with that word. Through my morning and afternoon I continued to have moments of clarity and comfort. With those moments feeling more and more calm and refreshed.
.
Like I started off. Some may eye roll or find this hogwashish…BUT…not me. I feel that when we pray and seek Gods support sometimes his answers and guidance comes in unexpected ways. We have to look and listen with our heart. It’s not a bright neon fluorescent sign blinking in our face.
.
Sooooo….seeking guidance – support – clarity? Sometimes it just takes a little self-love, open mind, and open heart. Find what recharges YOU. Don’t neglect yourself to long -PLUS When you give yourself some necessary self-care those around you can and will reap the benefits too 😍.
