Do you consider yourself a high-achieving woman? ⠀
⠀
Ya, me too…. So, why am I asking this today? ⠀
⠀
Something that I rediscovered over and over is my go-to response in any stressful situation: be “busy,” accomplish more! Can you relate?⠀
⠀
Slowing down does not come very naturally to me, I have to push myself and be mindful and INTENTIONAL with where I place my time and focus. Instead of doing 1000 things that I am “good” at, I intentionally choose to focus on what is aligned with my highest self and choose my GREATNESS instead! ⠀
⠀
So what does that look like?⠀
⠀⠀
Figuring out which daily rituals and behaviors NOURISH me and keep me grounded. And, I am not just talking about food- I am talking about physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally. ⠀
⠀⠀
I focus on managing my energy, instead of my time. You have the choice of how you spend your energy- so PROTECT it!⠀
⠀⠀
I am constantly checking in with myself to be super self-aware and take radical responsibility for MYSELF. Inquiry questions I ask often sound like this…⠀
⠀
Q: Do my actions match my aspirations?⠀
Q: I am showing up today as the woman I know that I desire to be?⠀
Q: What do I feel right now? ⠀
Q: What do I need? ⠀
Q: Where do I need to ask for help or support?⠀
⠀
I asked if you can relate above, but you know what… If you’re a part of my tribe I know that you can relate! So take some this week to slow down, and check-in with yourself- believe me, it feels SO GOOD!⠀
Lots of love and slowing down this week,
Carmen
