Slowing down · Enough, Already

Slowing down

Today was a busy day! We did our first somatics class and I filmed the first video for the “Start Here” classroom (it’s up there now for you to view!). I also had patients in the morning to see, and I had a session with my personal trainer. It was a lot. Too much.

It just goes to show that I’m still a work in progress too! Slowing down is the work. If you’re keen on finding balance, if you have health goals, if you want a better relationship with your body, slowing down is always the first step.

It just so happens to be the hardest thing to do. We all have busy lives. Most of us are probably overcommitted. Work demands. Family demands. It adds up, and it often doesn’t leave a lot of space for us to just…be.

Up here in Canada, we have a long weekend coming up. My husband and I are going camping and I plan to do a lot of slowing down. Also a hike and some fun. But plenty of time to relax, reset and tune it.

Camping just so happens to be my favorite way of slowing down.

I’d love to hear how you slow down. Let me know in the comments!
