Take the time to enjoy your life

In the busy pace of modern life, we often forget to take the time to stop and smell the roses. There is so much we “have” to do that there is no time for the things that would make a real difference in our lives. A balanced life involves having periods of rest as well as periods of activity.

The periods of rest are often more important than the periods of activity. When we rest, we give ourselves space to connect with what we really want rather than what seems like a good idea at the time. Taking a walk in nature, having a cup of tea, or even taking an afternoon nap can restore us and open us up to infinite possibility.

Infinite possibility pushes out the fears and anxiety and allows spirit in to co-create with us. We are wonderfully supported by the universe but sometimes we need to get out of our own way so that we can receive this support. “Getting out of our own way” often involves getting in touch with what gives us joy and this is what is most important to us.

When we are on the hamster wheel of life, the wheel is often spinning so fast that the opportunities that come our way bounce off and fall to the ground. We may feel guilty about taking time out just for us. However, this is exactly what will set us up to allow in the magic that the universe has to offer.

Alternating periods of rest with periods of activity, is the winning formula for loving your life. It helps you to feel nourished, cared for and loved by yourself and the universe. You will then be free to create your life in any way you choose. You deserve a joyful and fulfilling life.
