Last year my grief therapist suggested I take more time off than usual. Experiencing trauma and grief have a profound effect on our lives and we need to create space and build capacity to heal and continue to show up for the people that need us most and to continue to manage our daily lives.
It was the best advice I received.
I was off work this past week, and it’s been so helpful.
Homemade meals, daily walks, a day trip to the Scandinave spa with a good friend, an overnight trip with my youngest daughter to Toronto to see Zach Bryan, an overnight trip to Muskoka with my husband for his work event & just being present for all of it.
Feeling grateful for this pause in my schedule to recalibrate, reflect, and rest 🤍
