Embrace – a new painting
Do you have days when all you want to do is lie in bed and watch 6 movies in a row?
I do.
Those days have been a part of my natural rhythm for as long as I can remember.
But I’m no sloth.
When I’m focused on a work project or in the creative flow, I’m equally happy with the long active and productive hours. I’m no stranger to 16-hour workdays.
Embracing these personal rhythms has been key to my inner peace.
There’s no use feeling guilty if I choose the company of Netflix for a day. It’s not a waste if I enjoy it.
The same goes if I spend a day in nature mid-week instead of working.
There’s as much power and peace in acceptance as there is in knowing when it’s time to shift.
Just as with our beloved trees, there’s a time for us to:
- be dormant
- bud & blossom
- bear fruit
- let go
So allow yourself to be. Allow yourself to do. Embrace both your active and passive phases.
Respect your needs for alone and social time.
Design a career and a life that supports your rhythms. You’re worth it!
This new painting called “Embrace” is about accepting your own rhythms in wellness and happiness.
In this painting, the triskele, or triple spiral is a symbol of both the active and passive. It’s a reminder to balance your being and doing.
As a symbol of motion, it also beckons you forward through the cycles of your Life Path, much as the moon influences the cycles of the oceans and the seasons.
The key is not to get stuck.
Workaholism can lead to burnout and other health issues. So can spending too many days watching movies in bed.
May you dance to your own tune in harmony with the rhythms of the Universe.
May you embrace and love yourself for who you truly are in all your ways of being and doing.
