Look at you, with your golden shimmer across your skin. All fresh with that new season clean slate feeling. I hope you’ve filled your days with sea dips, walks in the breeze, iced coffees and celebrating the abundance of sunshine.
I know September is the month when we’re all trying to squeeze in those last summer BBQs, make the most of the sunshine and enjoy the final stretch of the summer. (Parents ~ well done for the summer holidays!)
But now is your reminder…
If you’re standing reading this, treat yourself. Sit down. Get comfortable.
Take a big breath in… and exhale.
Drop those shoulders. My love, you do so much. And now is the time to clean the slate. You don’t need to feel the pressure that, because the sun is out, you have to be out making the most of every second. Start to slow yourself back down.
What routine and rhythm would you like to settle back into? What do you need to stop doing to get you closer to where you want to be?
A really lovely way to reconnect with nature, get out of our heads and find a little flow is to head outside and pick blackberries. There’s an abundance of them at the moment. Freeze them. Pop them into crumbles. Make some jam. Or simply eat a few straight from the bramble.
Allow yourself a little breathing space and mindfully head out foraging. Notice the breeze, the colours, the sounds around you. Let yourself be present for a while.
And, of course, the golden rule: leave enough for the birds and share the abundance with your loved ones.
Slow down. Breathe deep. Pick a few blackberries. Let September do the rest.
Lots of love,
Becky and the team from Wellness Warriors Yoga studio X
