“Concentration navigation , keep in rhythm”

Those who know that game hope this catches your attention . I hope it makes you smile. Life is a bit like a game at times but it isn’t always easy to keep to the rhythm :-)

Things will never be perfect in life but it’s about navigating life the best we can. Sometimes just as we think life can be so perfect the waves and the rhythm of life changes. “Dum dum dum duka dum dum duka dum dum” (and some of you may get which song I’m singing in my head , :-)

It’s ok life is full of ups and downs, twists and turns and some eye opening thought provoking events that can change you as a person from the inside. These are all part of life and without them I wouldn’t be who I am today .

Recently I felt like I’m drowning due to the noise and busy nature of it all. I got scared but I managed to pull myself out some internal challenges. I thought I needed change . However on reflection I feel it was a test of my endurance mentally and physically . It actually helped in some ways to make a better plan to navigate this year.

I’m a lot stronger than I think and know. I often forget this and become a victim of myself. . It can be a kind of internal battle. I kind of think to myself that I need to do so much more. I think I just have to stop this natter in my head and talk to myself more kindly.

“Everything is enough as it is and I am enough as I am “, I have to keep telling myself this. I think this maybe my new mantra. I can only do what I can and if I can’t do more it’s ok. I’m only human. I often thought that I have to push myself and be some kind of super woman but I can only be who I am and do what I can. Ive learnt to say no too which is a powerful tool to protect my well-being. I’ve been through a lot and immensely grateful for where I am now.

When I reflect back to where I was 14 years ago I am so grateful for everything. It’s crazy how time flies so fast though. I remember the times when it was so hard in the beginning . I know life can be challenging but I’m going to plod on because the steps I take today right now will help me tomorrow. I’m just going to concentrate on today and this moment (breathe in and out ...:-)

I’m so grateful to my friends and family . Thanks for being there and helping me navigate the new me. One thing I’ve realised is that I need to be there more for myself. I feel when I’m alone I feel more peace especially when walking in nature . I also really enjoy meditation too which has helped me along with exercise, cranial and somatic experiencing. Thanks to all those who continually support me and check in, text or call me. It does mean a lot to me. Thank you! I hope this blog may help some of you too.
