Putting yourself first even when it feels the hardest thing in the world

I'm sitting here tonight and reflecting on my world in the last week
I'm not ready to share why but it's been one of the hardest weeks I have had in a very long time for so many reasons but do you know what
I practice what I preach
I listened to me and I mean really listened
I knew I couldn't show up and I told everyone around me that I needed to look after me and my closest
I retreated even though at the time I felt like the world might leave me behind
I knew that none of it mattered
What mattered was to look after me and to those I hold close
The support I have received has been phenomenal, so much love, support, and guidance, I felt all the love
My god, what a week
I lived and breathed the work I do in the world
I embodied my emotions
I let it pass through my body with ease, without resisting the pain I was feeling
I let go of it and I connected to love
I connected into me
To what I really truly needed to nourish my soul
I let myself be held and be witnessed in all my vulnerability
And now the fog is starting to lift, I feel stronger but know the pace of life is still slow... and that feels good
I feel so lucky to know what I know and what a lucky being I am for everything I have experienced, the people I have met and the amazing wealth of knowledge I have learnt along the way
I share this because I want to inspire you to always be YOU, to put yourself first even when it feels hard
To listen, to always listen to what your heart is telling you , your heart is your soul, the depth of you, your true self, Listen....
