Aloha,
we are meeting in the Circle today.
Please keep taking in the beauty and abundance of nature and filling your Island of Self with the sensual impressions of the season.
I made a brief review of my year’s goals, since we are 2.5 weeks away from midpoint, acknowledged what was difficult or time consuming and released with gratitude what is behind me now and no longer an obstacle.
As I’ve been consciously working on my time management, I notice progress and the benefit of becoming mindful of where time is spent and gaining a more accurate sense of how long certain tasks will take. What surprised me is that allowing a bit more space and breathing space between commitments can boost the mood and, with it, the perception of the day; and if micro breaks aren’t enough, boundaries work.
Self-improvement in areas like awareness or mastery of time can sound a bit humdrum to a bystander, but once you decide to come along on this journey, it reveals a lot about serenity, our individual motivators and priorities, and how we acquire skills. These contribute to the knowledge of who we are…
Self-knowledge curbs consumerist patterns and ideologies that none of us can fully turn off living in places that suggest to us that “this new thing” will provide a quality of experience that we were meant to generate from within, sustainably and for the long haul. One of the benefits of becoming more knowledgeable about ourselves is sound judgement, discernment and ultimately, well-being.
On this day, please bring your creativity tools to session, because they are being treated with reiki. All participants are getting an infusion of reiki, too, so that you welcome the weekend with open arms and lightness in your step.
According to calendar, summer is starting in a week and a few days; but in the land, summer has already established itself in many corners in the global north. Stay hydrated, and fill up your cup in every way you can fathom.
Vibe with the joy and the splendour of the season. In gassho. I humbly receive.
