Solitude & Sunshine 🌿
Yesterday, I was out at a festival sharing and supporting a teacher in a wide-open, high-vibe energy of a Biodanza Vivencia... I loved it, but afterward, a wave of exhaustion hit.
Under the influence of the New Moon, I woke up feeling so low this morning. My nervous system just wasn't handling the external world or the leftover noise from all those people.
So today, I disapeared to my allotment for hours.
Hair a mess, no make-up, pottering around in my leggings, completely as happy as Larry with my plants and the earth. Just letting myself be raw, unpolished, and completely unplugged.
I now feel re-charged, grounded and back in my own skin and bones .
Lately, I’ve been wondering if I’m turning into a bit if a recluse....
Outside of holding space for people, I just don’t have the desire to be "sociable" in the normal way anymore...
I used to blame it on my age, but I know that’s not true, I have way too much vitality and vibrancy for that.
The truth is, something deeper is shifting.
I’m realizing that when I give out so much energy, the quiet that follows is entirely necessary. It’s a retraction, yes, but it’s how I catch my breath.
Moving softly on the land and in the sunshine today was that breath for me.
I’m learning that fiercely protecting my solitude isn't a bad thing. It’s how I stay vibrant. It’s how I keep my energy good so I can hold space for others later.
To anyone else navigating a heavy New Moon slump after a busy weekend..... go find a patch of green.
Look toward the sun. Let the earth hold you until you feel ready to step back out. 🤍
Big love ❣️
