Who or What is teaching you right now? What are you learning?
Life has been teaching me quite a bit right now. We lost 3 family members within weeks of each other in September and October and we managed to make 2 trips to Florida to be there for my family.
Those experiences taught me that I need to make the time or the space (probably both) to connect with them more.
My body has been teaching me that doimg the right things for it, is not always easy. At the beginning of the year we were working with a trainer and we were doing better on nutrition, we were working out. I was getting my health concerns addressed. It was going well. Then, at my 6 month imaging appointment, came back abnormal. So, I have been following up. Next week, I have a procedure to see if what they found is cancerous or just something to watch. What I’m learning from this is first to not live in the what ifs. Second, life is too short to live in a body I don’t feel at home in. After I know what’s recommended going forward, I will be meeting with a surgeon to see about finally seeing on the outside what I feel on the inside.
The last lesson I’m learning lately is that routines/structure is very important for me. Building my routine is ever evolving but, as I find the rhythm that works for me in the morning and evening. The burnout I can feel is much better managed. And, my inner monolog is quiet.
