Today I’m continuing a conversation not about MAKING new patterns, but about NOTICING new patterns. We tend to keep our eyes on the prize, look ahead, keep moving, and live in the future. Or maybe that’s just my anxiety talking? Just me? I don’t think so either.
So we are talking about noticing the patterns, dynamics, reactions, responses, feelings that are NEW to a situation. The new experiences that are a direct result of the work you’ve already done and continue to do. Because this is an important step in really harnessing the power of neuroplasticity which we talk about in this week’s mini episode of the podcast.
But before we do, I want to share about an incredible event going on with my friend Jenny Jackson’s store Ave Lumi and ANNUAL WAREHOUSE SALE. I met Jenny at an event for mama owned and focus businesses. Jenny kindly befriended me, introduced me to people, and laughed at my jokes. Which is obviously easy because I’m hilarious.
Ave Lumi isn’t following the fast fashion playbook. We’re talking about beautiful merchandise at achievable price points that not only make a family's daily lives better, but consider the earth and maker in the process. Last year I bought a ton of stuff in various sizes so E is still wearing some of my prizes! And I can’t wait to do it again this year. Check out the Ave Lumi sale here!
Ok, so as you know I was at Canyon Ranch last weekend as a featured expert. None of us are shocked to hear that it is AMAZING there. I am blown away by the people I met, the way people showed up to my workshops, and how great it felt to be working with people in real life.
I was away BY MYSELF, at a spa retreat, in a cozy robe, teaching about the Pelvic Floor, and obviously journaling a ton. Literally removing myself from my day to day allows me to see what’s going on more clearly. I can zoom out and anything fuzzy comes into focus. I freaking love it and this is why I’m so into taking time BY, FOR, and WITH MYSELF!
Ok, so three things showed up clearly that mark some big new patterns that I’ve literally been working on for years.
