Life is all about balance.
You don’t always need to be getting stuff done.
Sometimes it’s perfectly okay, and absolutely necessary to shut down, kick back, and do nothing.
— Lori Deschene, Founder and director of TinyBuddha.com (Deschene spent more than a decade struggling with bulimia, depression, and self-loathing resulting from childhood trauma and bullying. After extensive treatment and an empowering perspective change, she began to focus on what she could do to improve her life. She began volunteering at a local yoga studio in exchange for free classes, which gave her sense of purpose and connection and helped her find peace. She then decided to begin using her former pain to help others. She felt that a website with this mission would help readers feel less alone with their challenges and more empowered to overcome them).
For me, a positive take away from this very challenging pandemic, is a deeper sense of community, sharing, openness. We’re all going through this together and this has created at least some sense of common ground. It’s felt weird and hard to be kept away from one another. I don’t know about you, but I’ve had moments of euphoria just sitting next to others at the coffee shop or in a restaurant. Just sayin’ :) Hugs. XO
Blessings,
