Rest, renewal, and creativity are available to all of us even in ordinary moments on ordinary days. And, it can be helpful to take the occasional longer step back. A week away in some beautiful place probably sounds nice! What might be more doable more often:
A pause of anywhere from a few hours to a few days, in/near our own homes, for some nurturing experiences and practices.
When you imagine this, what comes to mind? You might have an art form you love and memories of being fully in flow with the time flying by. Maybe there is something new you’ve been wanting to try or learn about and it’s been hard to find and set aside the time. Or, just one simple day of freedom and spaciousness, away from devices and obligations. Some meditation, reading, journaling, a solo hike or neighborhood wander, mindful meals, a relaxing bath? These are experiences and activities we can gift to ourselves.
