Yesterday I was teaching a class
And for whatever reasons only one person showed up despite several being bookedā¦
Iāve learnt to go with the flow & energy of whoever is present rather than show up with a fully planned class.
I usually have a theme to speak to
Always from my own experience and whatever Iām dealing withā¦
LIFE
And always about connecting deeply with our inner world
The felt sense
-As I do in 1:1 Coaching Sessions
Long story short
We rolled out our mats
Facing each other
The student facing the sea
And there we stood for over an hour
~TALKING
Them talking
Me LISTENING
Me REFLECTING
Me HOLDING SPACE
And the planned theme?
~SOFTENING
So we did
In Darwin thereās A LOT of people working in the under resourced over loaded community sector with a eternal to do list, another important project on top of the existing ones on your desk, and never enough timeā¦
And after work thereās LIFE
Thereās relationships
Thereās family
Thereās bills
Thereās housework
Thereās meals to prep
Thereās YOU struggling
Is it time you QUESTION?
Is it time you REPRIORITISE?
Is it time you SLOW DOWN?
Are you in survival mode?
On the fast train to burnout?
Going so fast
You havenāt even noticed?
My version of this culminated in a dose of shingles.
I got off lightly
And I have the flexibility in my life to adjust, intentionally built in
-THESE DAYS!
Because burnout is a great teacher
BUT creating a purposeful, sustainable, embodied life you LOVE is so much better!
This is the work
But more on that laterā¦
