Blog Thoughts: Awakened Living

Sylva, North Carolina

I love how our Co-Presenter, Lori Briscoe, of Appalachian Teas & Botanicals wrote on a recent Awakened Living retreat promo: 

To “Awaken”- is to shift your perspective on how you see and then move through the world.
To awaken is to stand in your true power and choose how you experience your one precious life.

This photo is in front of our home for the retreat. Every time I am in these mountains surrounded by this view, I breathe deeper than I do anywhere else.

When is the last time you paused?
When is the last time you took in the beauty around you, especially in this beautiful fall season?

Stop.

Self-care is understanding that we can't pour from an empty cup. We need to rest and find our center; AWAKEN to the part of ourselves that we push down in order to be the perfect person on the outside. 

I am challenging you to STOP. 

Can you give yourself two days to breathe in and awaken to this beauty?
