Playful
Hello Again My Love,
Do you ever get tired of adulating? Are you living your life according to the checklist in your head?
We all have those phases in our lives where we feel driven to:
- Check all the boxes that our or other people’s expectations put in front of us
- Make the things we long for happen
- Take care of the things that need to be take care of
- Work hard to cross every T and dot every I.
All of a sudden you look down and life isn’t fun anymore. I know, I know…. I can hear the limiting voices shutting you down already.
“Life isn’t supposed to be fun; it’s hard work,” said the Limiting Voice.
“You can’t enjoy it, you don’t deserve that kind of freedom.”
The Limiting Voices scream, “There are too many things that need to be done, that should be done before you can relax.”
The fear behind you limiting voices cracks like a whip on your soul. I am here to remind you of a very valuable fundamental truth.
You my love, are playful. Before you shrug it off sit with it for a moment. Believe me you heart is begging for this pivot in perspective.
I know you have a lot to do, not just in your day but also in your life. How do you want to feel while you are doing it? What kind of energy do you want to fortify all those things that you do and create?
Long before you adopted limiting beliefs that put you into a box, life was a great adventure of learning and discovering. Your silly and joy-filled manor of taking life in, and creating was playful.
Imagine your day-to-day life filtered through your fundamental truth of playfulness. It is ok for you to tap back into that playfulness. Trust me life is so much richer when you do. “But how,” you ask? Start small and let it build.
- Tap into to moments where you feel like a kid again.
- Sit in this meditation
- Find photos of yourself where you feel playful
- Call a friend that make you laugh
- Listen to children laugh (literally pull up videos on YouTube if you have to)
- Dance to music (before you start checking off any list)
- Put yourself in places where you discover new things
Remember the energy that you carry into your day breeds and fortify what you do.
You were gifted a heart for whimsy and wonder. You have a fundamental truth that say, “I AM PLAYFUL.” It is time to come back home to that truth, and live from that place of freedom. Gift yourself permission to be playful in your life. Allow that playful energy that make your mouth turn up with a smile, illuminate your heart and spill out onto every moment of your day.
Let’s quiet the fear and limitation with a dose of what is fundamental to your humanity and divinity; playfulness. Plug back into your truth and say, yes I AM Playful.
BONUS Ways to Own Your Truth:
Find an image of yourself where you feel PLAYFUL, add some text to the image, and put that physical representation of your truth where you can see it. This is a photo of me at one of my many slumber party birthdays. There would be twenty girls in sleeping bags all over the living room floor, giggling and playing until the wee hours of the morning. From a young age I surrounded myself with amazing people who loved to laugh and be silly. Age hasn’t changed that at all.
Once you create your image post it on social media with a note about your truth. It’s valuable to claim your truth externally as much as you do internally. Use the #awakeningtoyourstory
