Rest to Embody Insights
This week I found my body sinking into a slower pace alongside the waning crescent moon, while also fighting against this softening. Thankfully I had my own words from last week to look at and ask– am I truly living all of these lovely insights on embodiment? A-ha! moments are great, but without integration, insights alone do not make for transformation.
Embodying insights happens in the in-between spaces. I asked myself whether I have been making space for integration, and the answer was: kind of. My habits have slipped quite a bit. Multitasking (aka rapidly shifting my attention back and forth) has crept in, along with more screen time and less quiet. I find myself avoiding silence in between activities, squeezing out gaps and occupying my attention. My energy feels slightly tense, and it’s tiring.
I am definitely ready for a rest reset. I still have consistent daily practices to connect with my body, and have become far more embodied while doing my day-to-day activities. I have a good foundation to build from, but am definitely ready for change. By rest reset, I mean reclaiming the practices, habits and beliefs that cultivate transformative rest.
I know that kind of rest is out there– I have tasted it, and it is delicious. More mornings where I wake up feeling refreshed across layers– physical, emotional, spiritual. More moments when time stills, and I feel fully alive and at ease. More expansive expression than I could imagine before, because I'm drawing from a deeper, next level well.
