Lifestyle
Here’s the crazy thing about being alive today, about getting to live our little slice of life in this particular time in history: we have the world at our literal fingertips, we should feel like we have all the answers already, so why does it sometimes feel like it’s still so bloody hard? We see carefully packaged versions of other people’s lives more than we ever see the tears and the troubles. No wonder we sometimes feel so lost. No wonder we question whether we measure up. But this life isn’t about perfection, is it? It’s about authenticity, intention, meaning and joy.
Let this be your reminder to use those moments of exercise or mindful awareness to check in. Are you making time for joy? Are you giving yourself time for something that makes you happy, just because? We don’t have to change our lives wholesale overnight for them to start to feel easier, happier, healthier. We just need to take the time for ourselves, to remember that this is our life to live as we wish.
I want to support you in making those habit changes that will transform your life, I want to cheer you on as you remember the person you are underneath all the noise, and get back to being that truer self, once again.
I want us to remind each other of the fundamental truth of the Stoic philosophy, Momento Mori. One day, we will die. And until then, we will live as boldly and beautifully as we dare.
