Sorry if your name is Marge ..I'm sure you are very nice The ' name it to tame it' has been so helpful as an overthinker who sometimes isn't very nice to myself. It's a reframe that always makes me giggle and that makes it easier to direct my thoughts to a more high vibe productive place. Your thoughts create your actions and your actions create your life after all. So onward and upward Marge 🥰

The constant reminder that taking time for myself isn’t selfish. It’s actually one of the ways I’m able to show up more fully for my family. I think this age and stage of motherhood requires more mentally in a lot of ways. It’s not just the daily rhythms and responsibilities, but also navigating emotions, boundaries, and the growing curiosity that comes with raising preteens I’ve noticed that I’m so much more mentally capable when I take time in the morning to fill myself up first. Keeping it simple and prioritizing ( because I love a catchy rhyme ) appreciate, hydrate, and motivate (move my body) which helps me create a more chill baseline for the rest of the day. It helps me show up with more patience and the ability to get out of my own head so I can see things more clearly .I’m also a projector in Human Design which means I need alone time to recharge. How does your Human Design help you navigate parenting? Or is this something you are curious about? Also Also this hook felt hard to write ( but let’s be honest all hooks feel a bit cringe to me)lo9- like all those years of programming about not being selfish- but I’ve learned you can't be of the greatest service to others if you are always coming from a depleted place ❤️ Tara x

Puttering- the act of engaging in light, unhurried, and pleasant tasks without a strict agenda Contemplating -It is the process of pondering a potential future action, studying a concept, or observing something thoughtfully without necessarily rushing to a decision Contemplating is indeed an art. I love a quiet morning where I can sit and become aware of my thoughts. Weeding out ( couldn’t pass up a cheesy gardening reference) the ones the don’t align with me or my goals❤️ And there is something so magically about an early morning backyard putter and checking in on what has bloomed Noutished Summer Series 🌞 Follow Along 💛 #fansofrichardrudd

I think our mindset around anything determines how we view it. I've shifted mine to view social as a place of authentic expression, creativity and inspiration. This has mainly been done with an app called @opalapp ( not sponsored 😉) l that locks me out of distracting apps and has a time limit. So I've learned to enter social media apps with the above intention. Am I perfect at this… No. Did I quit my Opal session to bingewatch World Cup visiting Europeans reaction to America... Yes. But it was so joyful. All the things I missed about America when I was living overseas. My other rule is to create more than I consume in all aspects of my life. Again. Not always 100%. But it's a mantra I keep coming back to. I think: Would you rather leave behind a beautiful documented life or a lot of hours scrolling with no creation behind it? Also, the library has a great cookbook and gardening books for lots of analog inspiration So no quick fix just lots of intentional moments and Opal
