We have been taught to believe that our performance and achievements determine our worth as women in the western world.
That we have to prove ourselves every single day.
That we must always be productive, strong and available.
And somehow, we’ve also been taught that we should wake up every morning feeling the same.
But the truth is
There are days when we feel slow.
Days when we don’t want to socialize.
Days when we are tired, quiet, sensitive, or simply need to withdraw.
What if we stopped forcing ourselves to live according to a rhythm that was imposed on us…
…and started listening to the rhythm that is actually ours?
Because perhaps the goal isn’t to become better at pushing through.
Perhaps we would do better learning to honor our cycles, our seasons and our need to rest as our desire for expansion.
