It's been a hot minute since I've been present here and for that I apologise. It's been 6 months of sheer hecticness with our family business.
It's been wonderful to see the business grow, getting my hands dirty on site and being there for my loved ones in any way I can (but mad all the same). You live, breathe and dream about it to the point it consumes you, sometimes in a good way, sometimes in a bad way. Blessed for the experience, the help and the continuous growth as a human.
The last few days I slowed a little, taking some time for myself whilst the jobs were too technical for my hands, I've been gardening, grounding and remembering who I am at my core, emptying myself of the must do's, the have to's and the endless lists.
It was wonderful. It's funny the very minute I stopped rushing and breathed deeply, three people came to me asking for readings. Now I haven't advertised for a very long time but they still found me by word of mouth.
I was resigned to the fact that my spiritual self was packed up neatly in a little box, stacked away for when I found the time to return to it.
I wasn't sure I'd even open that box back up if I'm honest as it wasn't a part of who I had to be in this "business" world. Today as I looked at my massage table, thinking 'this is in the way at home, should I sell it'... I realised, I know something is missing. A big part of me.
I am called again. If it isn't part of my life, serving others in this way I don't flourish. I become a robot day in day out, doing the necessary but not that which fills my own cup. It is who I am. We can be so many different versions of self but this one must be unpacked now.
I am not ready to massage again just yet, my energy can be given in other ways though!
I hope to resume readings and tuition, my reiki tuition and practice for others.
With love and gratitude for the space and time given to us while I could aid my own family, I would slowly like to step back into my own path as time allows - E.C.
