We Got a Messed up Memo

by

How come when life is stressful, we think we have to go into survival mode? 
“I just need to get through this, and it will be better.” 
 
How come we believe we can only thrive when things are “perfect?”
 
It doesn’t make sense. 
Nothing is ever perfect. Especially not life. 
 
When one thing changes, morphs, evolves, something else comes up. 
Have you ever experienced this? Or said, “when things calm down, I’ll take care of myself.” 
 
How has that worked out? 
 
You can thrive all the time. 
And you can define what thriving means for you.
 
You don’t have to live in survival mode. Suffering is optional.
It’s a messed up memo – this idea of balance and easy. 
 
Let’s re-write it. 
 
Let’s breathe and invite ease. 
 
Let’s be centered and invite wisdom.

Let’s take care of our mental and physical well being. 
 
Whatever is going on in your life – because we all have struggles (I see you and honor that) –  
And 
I want to tell you, it’s time to thrive.
 
Yes, it’s your time to thrive. 

Many hugs, 
Laura

P.S. I didn’t make up the term “memo” in this use. It came from a chapter in Glennon Doyle’s book Untamed, which I highly recommend. ?

What is your perfect day?

We like to use “conversation” cards during family dinner. This week, we had “describe a perfect day” and I asked my boys (who are 15 and 12) to list mine. It was crazy, cool how the responses were pretty much my life right now.  Working out, being with clients in the...
