Hi everyone!
Welcome to another year of finding some space for ourselves and our needs amidst the hustle and bustle of the end of the year.
Whether you are celebrating a holiday this month, whether it is the last month of the year, or whether it is just a string of ordinary days in an ordinary month, the ambient hurrying stressfulness of this month can get to us all.
In the face of all of that, my Making Space posts are not about giving us something ELSE to do.
Instead, I am hoping they can be a reminder that you deserve space in your own life, that you don’t need to dedicate every second of every day to everyone else’s needs and wants.
I want to encourage to take a break in whatever form works best for you whether that includes the exercise/meditation videos I share or something else entirely, I am wholeheartedly encouraging you to make more space for yourself in your own life.
That might mean saying no to some things.
It might mean choosing not to do some other things.
It might mean scaling some things back.
It will definitely mean being kind to yourself.
So, with all of that said, let’s get started on the Making Space 2025 project with some stretching and a short meditation…or with whatever makes you feel like yourself today.
Wishing you ease đź’š
Your movement practice for today:
And here’s today’s meditation:
