Meaningful Mondays-Slow Moments

Slowness. Pauses. Intentionality. Everything feels seasonal. Seasons can be personal to each of us.

I have noticed I take a lot of pauses in my business, and it is no different in my personal life. I tend to overextend and overwork myself, and feel bad when I take a break. I'm a Gemini sun, Virgo rising--so I am a BUSY body but I also have Taurus placements and truly enjoy moving slowly. These pauses stem from many places--overworking, overthinking, stressing myself out with creating appealing content and comparing myself to other businesses and creatives, feeling a much needed break arising within my being. I know the pause is approaching when my body reacts with feeling sick or feelings of discomfort. Unfortunately, that is when I realize I need to return to myself and re-center. With time, I am learning to welcome these moments of breath. They're needed--as humans, as creatives, as entrepreneurs, as female-bodied people. Our capacity and cycles are soooo different than the capitalistic, masculine-centered society we live in (but that's just my personal take).

This feels like a sacred reminder to both you and I to welcome in what the pauses and slowness tell us, for sure there are messages to be heard here. I hope this is an invitation for some rest and to be kind to yourself whenever you begin to hear the call to come back to yourself.
