How are you nourishing yourself?

How are you nourishing yourself…and I’m not just talking about food.

How are you nourishing yourself? How are you feeding yourself, not just with the food you eat, but the life you consume? It’s very easy to find ourselves floating through life on autopilot, doing the same things every day, moving in the same way, engaging with the same media, eating the same food, diligently following our routines, and these things are important….

Consistency and structure can help us to feel safe, provide a sense of security and anchoring particularly when we feel unsteady…but when we only follow the well trodden paths of what we know without exploring other possibilities, those structures and habitual behaviours can begin to stifle us, disconnect us from our fullest selves, from our creativity, from opportunities for growth and play, for exploration and adventure. These elements require movement in order to breathe and to flourish, they need feeding and nurturing just like the other parts of us, mind, body and spirit…

And how do we nourish these different facets of ourselves?

By exploring, giving ourselves permission to colour outside the lines and experience something new, and that doesn’t have to be in a big way. It could be as simple as:

• Reading a book on a subject that interests you,

• Taking a different route to work and mindfully witnessing your surroundings,

• Visiting a new cafe or restaurant,

• Taking a class or joining a workshop,

• Picking up a hobby you enjoyed as a child and seeing how it fits now,

• Playing with a new form of movement perhaps, dance (party round the kitchen) yoga, boxing what ever feels fun.

The key is following your curiosity, following your creativity and your inner child, allowing yourself to explore and experience, giving expression and space to the different parts of yourself, to the possibility within you, nourishing all of you so that you can feel fulfilled, inspired and alive, as a whole being!
