You in the flow? Or in the funk?
|
Hi hi dear Reader Many greetings apply this week - happy new moon! Happy Summer Solstice! It’s that time again - and you’re like what do you mean??? 👀 About 1-2x/month, I get this feeling I’m either in the flow (woop woop 🎉) or I’m in a funk (something needs shifting)! When I’m in the flow my playtime is great, 1:1 time with my family members is rockin’, and important projects are in forward progress. If I am feeling funky (not disco funky - just OFF), my space feels cluttered, I am tired, I have been eating too many scones. (Because you’re curious 😆, I like the scones that have more crunchy tops and yes with that special type of sugar on top!) When you are in flow, you celebrate yourself. If in the funk zone, its time for…🥁 #1 Start and #1 Stop #1 Start = What’s my #1 positive behavior that I know will benefit me the most when I do it? #1 Stop = Whats my #1 negative behavior no longer serving me that I know I need to stop? And how: Make your start: easy, visible, and celebrate it! Make your stop: hard to do, invisible, and celebrate or needs work it! This cycle I am (re-) starting taking a shower after Gordie’s bedtime. (why? to move my bedtime up 10-15min and get more sleep!) I am stopping kitchen work after 8 pm. (why? to increase time spent with Marshall and David reading or resting - and that feels good for my ❤️) **Reader, the WHY is the force multiplier here. If you don’t have a strong enough why - or dont let yourself dream or reflect on this, the start and stop are just empty promises that you won’t follow through on… Really you already know what needs celebrating and shifting. Some of my start and stops are ongoing so don’t feel bad if thats you too. We are all halfway through this year and take some time to see how you want the rest of your journey of the year to go! ➡️Go check out my site where I put up all my YouTube playlists, good to bookmark! *I can only hope you feel more clear, relaxed, and balanced after you spend time moving and breathing. Physical self-regulation IS a THING thats why I’ve devoted my life to being a student of movement as it relates to physical-mental-emotional-and spiritual well being! Big Solstice love! Enjoy the peak of the light! ps if you're local come see me for the next couple of Mondays for breath and some R&R! ~“The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.” Joseph Campbell~ xo 💕Christina Doctor of Physical Therapy Heroic Performance Coach Yoga Teacher and Soul-full Wellness Movement Meditator YouTube channel: @Drchristina-powers |

It’s the breath! Hi hi Reader! Throughout some of my day I am doing and being on autopilot - the “needs doing” parts of life. When I can stop and attend to my breath - even just for 1-2 cycles…it grounds me back into my physical body and also gives me clarity, calm, and focus. I would say most transitions with my boys are a bit hectic (with still the question of if Gordie has any shoes on when we leave the house😆). I have made a new practice of getting into my car and setting my hand on my...

Hey hey Reader, I want to close this loop for you...Gordie my 9 year old picked ice skating as what he's learning this year. ⛸️ (I know you were curious!!) He does look adorable in his big soccer socks and t-shirt in shorts when we go. ❤️ So last week when I talked about YOU figuring out some cool things to do with your summer... Did you write a list? Did you put it up somewhere to see it...or did you go down a rabbit hole of non productive scrolling and reacting to other people? You got to...
