Push Pull

This past week I’ve been really present to my body and its wisdom. I have a deck of affirmation cards and despite mixing them thoroughly before I pick one, I get the same card almost every time…

I am nurturing my body.

I’ve really noticed the difference between when I’m pushing myself to do something versus when I’m pulled forward by inspiration. When I’m pushing myself to achieve, my body feels heavy. My head feels thick. When I’m inspired, I’m so excited that I leap forward in contagiously unstoppable spurts.

Can you feel the difference? How much of your day is spent pushing yourself versus being pulled forward in-Spirit? It’s worth noticing.

Oh, the sun beckons me to come outside. More tomorrow…

P.S. Happy Birthday Ms. Hayes!
