Trusting myself & pyjama Thursdays

• Guys - indulge me...it’s Self Care Story Time, Living the life of your dreams!!! (All that good shit) I think you’ll love it! She’s a feisty one about TRUSTING the FEELS.
  ✨Seven months ago I quit my day job and never looked back.
  ✨Let me tell you, The road to your dreams, it’s not all unicorns and fucking rainbows....its bumpy as hell mate. And thank the lord for tissues - because I’ve cried a lot this year. ✨ But it’s been so worth every second. I have learned A LOT.
  I’m writing this today, on a quiet Thursday afternoon, in my sanctuary, in my pjs...because I can.
  ✨It’s not very often I wear my pjs all day (I’m a get ready for the day kinda woman) but today is one of those days. ✨And so why is this so important you ask?? For years I dreaded going to work, often many of my jobs required me to wear clothing that felt dull, restrictive and just totally not me.
  I always thought, you know, I just love teaching yoga, guiding meditation, making art, having gatherings, all the things! (the list goes on) because at least I got to wear my own clothes. And I LOVE my clothes ✨Many years ago without really knowing it, I planted a seed.
  I knew that in my dream life I would get to wear exactly what I wanted - ALWAYS, no exceptions. That I wouldn’t let myself work somewhere or for someone that didn’t accept me for exactly how I came. Or had a uniform policy that I just wasn’t on board with.
  ✨Which in my case is often in VERY comfortable pants (for the record I don’t live In my yoga pants, well, that’s a lie. I pretty much do, but ripped skinny jeans and kimonos make their way in at least once a week) ✨Moving on. Here I am, sitting in my pjs, in front of my fireplace in my cozy sanctuary sharing this story with you.
  I may not have everything I envision in this life of my dreams right now - BUT that’s what the journey is for!!! The important part is that I totally TRUST I’m on the right path and I’m heading in the right direction. Grateful for now.
  ✨I know I’m living THE WAY both exciting and filled up with all sorts of challenges (AND rainbows 🌈) The important part - is that I’m headed On THE PATH. Less concern, more aligned in PURPOSE.
  
  
• When my heart was telling me I didn’t want to wear certain clothes or work certain jobs - these feelings were coming straight from my heart.
• Not from logic (because let’s face it we all need money sometimes, that why we work the crap jobs and wear the monkey suits)
  
  But these little thoughts about my clothes - the big warning signs about wanting to feel more aligned in what I was wearing - THEY WERE MESSENGERS!!!
  Trying to navigate me back onto the right track.
  Back onto my path.
  In the direction of my dreams.
  To live my BEST life.
  
  I’m allowed to have pj Thursday in my office - no one’s gonna stop me!

But perhaps gently ask yourself the question if you’re feeling good about where you are....it doesn’t matter what you do, it’s how you FEEL about what you do that will make all the difference in the world.)

On one more note - I’ve recently heard a lot of interesting comments about how people have been feeling when it comes to the whole “LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE” thing....the pressure it puts on people.
To those who are challenged with the whole pressure thing and living up the the BEST LIFE thing - let me just say that there is space for that here too.
Like I said - I know I’m living my BEST life - right now, on the path, in each moment. This doesn’t mean each moment is easy. I took the whole afternoon off work yesterday to get tests done with my doctor and about three different clinics - not a very fun experience. I’m struggling with a few things and some I can’t even quite figure out yet. But am I still living my best FUCK YES I AM.
