It has been a moment since I posted on here. A lot has been unfolding in my personal life and in the world. If you are reading this, I am sending you love and strength.
I’ve never been one to fear solitude, actually I crave it most of the time, I love spending time on my own, with my thoughts, or meditating, drinking tea and practicing yoga and mindfulness are my acts of self-care. Decluttering and reorganising my own space is a big part of practicing mindfulness for me. All of these practices come fairly natural and easily to me when I’m in an optimal space and mindset. Of course the challenge is to take the teachings further during a time of let’s say, non-optimal circumstances.
Moving to Australia has been one of the biggest blessings in my life, and such a magic journey that would be a whole other story. But the ongoing Sydney lockdown pair with heavy news of terror, environmental destruction, political divide, all around sickness, has been wearing me down. I’m sure I’m not alone in feeling this way.
When I feel down, I retreat to my practices even more. I miss my sanctuary in Hong Kong and the news of it closing its sacred doors has been another sad one. But I know vividly in my body the gratitude and lessons I’ve experienced there. So much so, I took them with me and I am deepening them to the best of my abilities, in my daily life, in my home (patiently waiting for studios to reopen in Sydney 😜🙏🏼).
This was a long post 😅 but all of these thoughts are deeply connected to the work that I do when helping organising a wardrobe and a home.
Stay safe and take care of yourself 💚
