Have any of you felt unbalanced this week, or was it just me? Just checking in with y'all.
My energetic & mental powers haven't been aligned since Monday, which is wild considering the great start I got on Sunday.
Connecting with my tribe after Sunday's class at one of the locations that has Fermentorium's kombucha on tap was such a rejuvenating experience!
Isle Of Us is such a quaint little cafe on the upper east side with a refreshingly simple decor, delicious food, and Fermentorium's tasty Ginger Mint Kombucha. The food had nice texture with flavors that were well balanced, not too heavy, and that drink was a great combination of light, flavorful, fizzy, and healthy.
I came home from tea with my peeps Sunday refreshed and ready to forge ahead on my projects with energy excited and ready to work. Only to find on Monday & Tuesday my mind was wandering in la-la land - unfocused, exploring abstract tangents, and just plain empty without a single thought at all. So much so that I left my wallet at home Tuesday and didn't realize it until I got halfway to my destination. That's NEVER happened to me before.
So I've been quiet this week, seeking balance and understanding in stillness and solitude while paring down my to do list to the absolute minimum, avoiding navigating important work decisions while in space-cadet mode.
And through that practice I learned what it feels like to modify my productivity to honor what I'm experiencing - my energy was roaring to go, my mind was on a SLOW stroll. I stopped fighting the call to mentally meander, and found I still moved forward with my work projects just not at the pace I originally set.
I'm proud of myself for being able to identify a shift in alignment and plan a recourse that respected the experience I was having while ensuring I still took care of business. And I'm so grateful for this life I've created that allows me the flexibility to do that.
Have any of you been thrown for a loop this week? How did you handle it?
