@wholeself-in As a mom of two boys myself - I can so relate to your post here :) You speak truth! And if we lived closer, I'd love to go on a nature walk with you - probably with our kids in tow and once we scheduled it into our busy planners LOL Summer is here (long awaited) yet the reality is there is a lot to catch up with after a busy school year of putting less important things aside - including ourselves. My goodness the truth in your post!
Very inspiring and some reality check for me - thank you for putting it all out there with your raw honesty and wonderful story telling. Your story gave me a little power to tackle my lost power spots.
Truly amazing post!
Thanks for saying so! I tell you what, it's taken a while for me not to see it as some personal failing of mine that I just can't get into more solitary pursuits like meditation or any solo exercise when there is anyone else in the house.
I thought I was just embarrassed to work on myself with husband and son around. Maybe that's so, but it's more that I just can't or won't disconnect from what the family is doing, if we are together.
Yay summer - today I cleaned a bunch of old school papers from the top of the fridge... how'd they get up there?
I know I have this situation as well. I love being with my family. Then there is the aspect of go, go, go and a million things to do and the thought of sitting 'still' for meditation gets put on the back burner - as well, creative time....I can't relax with clutter. So I go, go, go to create that relaxing space....and then I'm too tired...and then, "Mommy!" LOL
It's all good
But you reclaimed your power spot ;) That is BIG!
Hope you enjoy the rest of your week, @wholeself-in
