Happy 5th of December ‘17 darling
Today I wish to express with a transparency that is vulnerable yet real.
Exhaustion is not something that is always easy to admit to.
As with it comes the admissions of the many omissions we have feigned away or avoided in order to keep going even when what we really needed was a break, a rest, a moment to breathe, a helping hand, a shoulder to lean on, or arms to hold us as we fall apart for a little while...or however long we need.
It’s okay to feel and be tired.
It’s okay to express it.
It’s okay to ask for help.
In a world that praises on doing, it is no wonder we are tired.
Rest is a key ingredient into our wellbeing. For without we struggle against the current and restoration and rejuvenation is not able to be met.
Responsibilities are many.
💛Yet so too is ones responsibility to self in ascertaining that rest is received.
For if not, we burn out and that dulls our shine and dims our spark of life.
It’s okay to be tired.
It’s in truth, a signal telling you to slow it down, take a rest, recuperate and recover.
We are so very demanding of self, and this is so very exhausting.
Your wellbeing and total wellness is met through self care, hence rest being an essential part in restoration and maintaining of ones vitality.
We can push ourselves right out of wellness and happiness if we push ourselves too hard...
A healthy balance is needed. Nothing perfect, but awareness to catch ourselves before we fall...
A tender loving reminder that it’s okay to be exhausted, and if so, then it is our responsibility to take the means necessary to restore our energy. Asking for help is a precious gift to self and to others, as is the opposite 😘
With love, in light, through life
