YES YES YES! I love that book and ALL of Tricia Hersey's reminders that our worth is not tied to our productivity. We have intrinsic value just BEING, and I remind my team of that frequently. I mean, we all gotta hustle, but also need to live in joy every day, not just on weekends and vacations.
FWIW (and it may seem trite), but yoga really helped me slow down. As a native Ohioan AND an Episcopalian (ahem), I looked askance at yoga for years: too new age-y, to woo-woo, too California, etc. You know - something “respectable” people don’t do. Well, now that I’M a Californian, I can confirm that it’s all that….and it’s been marvelous for me. Not just mentally but as an athlete. I hope you are able to practice it at least occasionally, sweet girl.
Love this--particularly speaking of the loss of "dream time" and respecting the need for our unconscious areas to grow and renew.
This is great. Much needed and much appreciated.
Thanks, Leanne. I just ordered the Rest Deck. I’m looking forward to a delicious nap - and restful time with my beloved - today.
Yes, yes! I slept till 10:00 this morning!
Brava!

SO true. Thanks, as ever, for the reminder.

I LOVE my yoga practice! Only wish I got to the studio more often. xoxo
