Spring finally feels like it has arrived! We have moved away from the mucky middle and broken through to the wonderful spring season we have been waiting for. Only, now, many of us find ourselves trying to hurry spring along to summer. Spring naturally brings energy. In Ayurveda - and nature itself - spring is a time of renewal and growth. We go from the heavy, inward energy of winter to a bursting outward “do more, move more” energy. That’s beautiful … but it can also be overwhelming. This time of year, I often hear my clients say: “I am way behind this year … I feel like I have to catch up … There’s so much to do, and I don’t know where to start.” So, why are we feeling hurried or rushed? Where are we going? Where else do we need to be other than right here in this present moment? There is a benefit to each stage (and season) that we go through in every aspect of our life Today, on Episode #152 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, I’m sharing my top 5 simple ways to stay mindful in the spring rush. Start with your breath Do one thing at a time Use nature as a reminder to slow down Set realistic spring expectations (and lower your expectations) Bookend your day with gratitude and calm Instead of rushing spring, try being in the moment of spring. Being engaged in spring. Rushing through spring without awareness can lead to burnout, frustration and even being disconnected from the joy of this season. Love, Lorrie xoxox Loving the show?
