What day is it?
It was one of those weeks last week - the overwhelming emotions that came up last week had me all sorts of dysregulated. That plus sick kids and holidays - it was hard to remember what day it was!
So much so that I missed my regular schedule of sending emails last Friday and again yesterday.
REST.
Sometimes, even the little things (like writing an email) are just too much. And taking a short break is allowed.
LISTEN.
To your body. To the still, small voice that guides decision-making.
To the wisdom that comes from the journal.
Last week, I did my Month-End Review for May.
And, what it reminded me was that
IT'S SUMMER. (finally)
Do things differently.
In that 30 minutes of journaling, I realized that I wanted change my work schedule so that I could have more free time/days off during the summer. I wanted to s l o w - d o w n and enjoy the summer.
Permission to do things differently during the summer.
More REST. More PLAY. More time to CREATE.
And for me, fewer emails - for the summer.
I'll send just one per week (On Monday) until September -
then re-evaluate during the month-end review in August.
What decisions will your month-end review help you make?
