Listen. Because listening’s important:
Hi and welcome to the Re-Enchant Your Life reminder.
Your sacred pause in the day where you’re encouraged to take a moment to stop and tune into your inner wisdom and become present, so that you can reconnect to your personal power and confidently embrace who you’re becoming, as you Re-Enchant Your life and create the change you truly desire.
Today you’re being reminded to look for the patterns.
Our lives are guided by patterns.
The seasons keeping rhythm, and the sun and the moon keeping time.
Internal body clocks and monthly menstrual cycles.
There’s a majesty in patterns.
They are dependable and bring structure, routine and order to our lives.
When you feel out of synch, disconnected or overwhelmed, look for the patterns that surround you.
Remind yourself of how they can be trusted to show up and guide you back home to yourself time and time again.
Day follows the darkest of nights, just as spring follows even the coldest and darkest of winters.
The moon always reappears after seemingly having disappeared from the sky.
Light always follows the darkness.
As adults, our pure innocence has gone, we’ve endured, and hopefully, overcome or are in the process of overcoming hardships, possibly many… We know that anything can change in a given moment.
And yet… we can still depend on the patterns and rhythms that govern and root us into our daily lives.
Pause, and take a breath. As you stop to notice the patterns that swirl around you and within you.
Today’s SHEro Action:
Today’s SHEro action is to pay attention to the moon over the next few days and nights.
Get familiar with where we are in her cycle.
Notice how she moves across your sky, where and when you can see her.
Become aware of her dependable patterns as she moves through the sky, cycling through her phases, no matter what is going on in our lives.
Start to pay attention to the cycle of the moon, she was after our first calendar.
Pause, and take a breath. As you allow the moon to ground and anchor you into the rhythms of life.
Today’s Affirmation:
“I trust in the patterns of life”
I’ll see you tomorrow for your daily reminder to Re-Enchant Your Life with me, Rebecca-Anuwen,
In the meantime, enjoy the rhythm of Your SHEro’s Journey!
PostScript
I love looking for patterns.
I love understanding the reasons why things happen and what will happen next.
One of the most informative patterns I ever discovered where the patterns that went on inside of me.
Once I started noticing my own personal patterns that cycled through the months, everything changed for me.
Instead of berating myself for wanting to rest when I needed to get things done, I started to understand that I was just in the part of my cycle that needed rest and that very soon, I’d be ready to go again.
After exploring my own patterns for a couple of months I could start to plan my calendar in accordance with my energy levels. I knew when I could do more work, when I could say ‘yes’ to more events and activities, and I knew when I needed to do less, rest more and if there was stuff that just had to be done, I knew I needed more time to do it, or that other things wouldn’t get done that day.
Patterns bring us comfort; they give us structure and they can make us feel safe.
At first, I thought if I stopped and honoured my need for rest, I’d never start again, that I’d want to rest forever.
But the truth is I can now enjoy my rest more, as I know that soon enough, I’ll be up and raring to go again.
