Do you have days like this?
Wow. The energy is super intense this week.
Today, I threw a tantrum in co-op because I couldn’t decide on what gluten & dairy free dessert I wanted from their miserable selection of confectionary ...
When I have days like this I have to make myself pause, relax, & remember…
THIS TOO SHALL PASS
It’s not the kind of ‘ah let’s take a mindful pause’- the kind I experience on a ‘good day’.
It’s more like a ‘Alma, just pause, because pausing is good, so just do it’ kind of pause.
& so I reluctantly pause, focus on my breathing, remind myself it’s okay not to feel like a shiny rainbow unicorn all the damn time and that ‘it too shall pass’ like everything does, like it always has & always will.
I understand that on some days you wake up grey for no apparent reason.
On some days you need a duvet day even though it’s a ‘work day’.
On some days you need to hold yourself in the bath & cry your eyes out.
& that’s all okay
You’re okay
& this too shall pass.
Sending love to you on this coming weekend - take all the time & nourishment you need x
