June Exploration

I may not can take a sabbatical for a month to some place far away (just yet). But what I can do is take breaks as often as possible. I can take this month and say no to things that feel like bondage and feel too heavy. I can say no to overspending. I can go on mini silent retreats and participate in things that soothe my nervous system or make me happy. I can book a massage (if I stop overspending) because they really do help this body that battles with rheumatoid arthritis disease and fibromyalgia and maybe my body has been keeping score since childhood. I want to eat even healthier than I have been. And maybe it’s time to tweak my morning routine. I know my bedtime routine is inconsistent at times.

I intentionally aim to not do too much outside of me. I want to come home to me this month. I want to explore new art techniques and learn some new crochet pattern. Hopefully, that will spark my interests into getting back into it. And if not, that’s okay. Maybe it will come later on. I want to get back to writing novels. This is not a magical, cure all month. This is just a month set aside for deliberate healing, creativity, and organizing. It’s also a month for me to gain clarity and direction. All of this is what I am hoping will show up. But if not, it is all okay. Let’s just call it an exploration. I am trying to manifest the GUSTO, alignment, and things I shall not name. And I will be saying NO to “doing” too much and to people that vex my spirit.
