Ahhh, Spain. 🇪🇸 ❤️ You’ve all truly got this wellness - and happiness - thing figured out.
I am so inspired by you - the ease, the slow pace, the beauty. It all seems so natural, REAL. This carefree life is so worth our time and effort to explore, and instill. ❤️☕️❤️
The food is healthy, wine free-flows, the sunshine abundant. Social safety-nets, kindness, and community are held dear - and for good reason. This is NOT a TV or car culture, or stressful lifestyle. Even full-time work is kept under careful watch so people don’t burn-out. ❤️
Spain’s emphasis on prioritizing the special care of all people - no matter what - and holding them up instead of holding them down, was truly lovely to witness. 🥹
No wonder its people are rated as the healthiest and happiest around the world. ❤️🇪🇸❤️
I’m left wondering just HOW to help others create this life here in America - the land of mental health issues, obesity, isolation, governmental carelessness about our health; ALL the deadlines, rigidity, and wayyyy tooooo much stress in everything we do… 😵💫
It feels like we are on our own over here. It’s maddening.
My #1 goal has always been to work on implementing a better sense of balance in my own life, create beauty around me, reach out to my loved ones more, and work with my clients on changing their stressful lives into happier, healthy versions steeped in amazing ease. ❤️
And Spain just reiterated this so well.
Because, we CAN have it here in our own country. But we must be willing to look at things differently.
Special thanks to my amazing sister Lib for doing so much to make our time together that much more meaningful; to my incredible sister Ana .forever for inspiring this trip; to - my stunning and wonderful girl who always looks for the best in our world. To our dad for helping to make our trip possible. ❤️
And, thank you to our loves in this world for supporting our desire to see life through the Spanish lens. 💃🇪🇸💃 (You all know who you are. ❤️)
🇪🇸
