What do you want to feel on Labor Day?

Welcome to Your Self-Care Summer!
 I have something special for you! You have worked hard all year long, and I know it’s been a lot. Summer has arrived, and every week this summer, I will send you ways to recover, regroup and recreate. It’s our Summer Self-Care Series! Our hope is that it will make your world a better place.
 
We begin at the very beginning. You. If you grew up putting others first too often, you may now live life in the same way. This week we focus on building a better relationship with yourself.  

Now that my kids are out of the house and many days are spent in quiet and writing, my relationship with myself is critical. I sometimes spend the day with my own worst critic, or do battle with a part of myself that doubts and regrets.  I want to create a relationship with myself that will build hope, optimism and resilience within.

Taking time daily to tap into my centered self is crucial for me.  My center is calm, courageous, confident, curious and at peace.  By taking daily quiet time and letting the world’s demands fall away, there is room for my centered self to speak.

 She is wise and encouraging.  Spending time with her is a gift.  She will not shout at me above the din of busyness, and she is always there, ready to share as I am ready to listen.

My centered self is my inner guidance system.  When I am cultivating that relationship, I can hear/feel with my heartsight what is good for me.  When an opportunity arises, and my heart swells in confidence and energy, I know that’s a good place to go.  Conversely, if my energy sinks (that gut feeling of your heart sinking into your stomach), I know it’s a no, thank you.

As a side note- Listening to your center reminds you that you have the right to be here, to take up space, and to thrive.  You are important.  The messages around you may not have always encouraged that, but it’s still the truth.

Be proud of who you are! Listen to your soul.  Cultivate a living, loving relationship with yourself.

Choose to do something you love this week!

Your self-care assignment for this week:  Listen to the latest A Creator-based® Life Episode, Number 156.  You’ll be glad you did.

All my love, Beth

 

Did you know?

We hold Coach n Clear twice every week! You could be missing your soul tune-up!  

We are forming guided mastermind groups for the winter quarter.  The people who join will be matched into groups that are similar in 3 ways.  Your group members will have a similar challenge to you, a similar goal and similar circumstances.  Sessions are held with two coaches twice a month, at a time that is convenient for your group.

Our goal in Creator-based® Coaching is to train and give you the tools, while you build relationships within your mastermind that help you as a group to outgrow your coach. You can continue as a group of friends helping and supporting one another.
