SELF-CARE AND CREATIVITY
TAKING TIME OFF
the treadmill of life
WORDS TALITHA TALAREK

et’s face it, life is busy and when you are not busy, it’s probably an 8 out of 10 (ok 9.95 out of 10) chance that your mind is busy. ‌kids, food shopping, study, Aunt Jane, someone needs new socks, rain is coming, walls need painting, an earthquake in New Zealand, season finals, pretty flowers, oh look shiny thing, GOAT!!! It’s common to keep so busy, so that you avoid one of the most crucial aspects in your life‌YOU!!! Then it starts‌ realisations of life – your life, and then there’s that abominable thought. “How did I get here?â€? The moment that creates deafening silence. Followed by, “What about me? It isn’t fair‌â€? As sad as it seems, most of us have been there at some point or another. So as it goes, we pull up our big girl panties (or pull on those man boots) and declare that “things have got to
change, and they are changing NOW!â€? Which sounds really great, feeling empowered, you go book yourself in for that massage you have wanted for weeks (ok months‌ hmm righto years) and then try that new restaurant everyone has been raving about and then you realise you are wearing the same outfit you were wearing in 1998‌ time for a new one. Discovering new aspects of yourself you feel relaxed and joyful. Then on the way home you encounter those old thoughts, feelings and beliefs‌ “Sammy needs new runnersâ€?, “we actually could have put that money towards car payments or at least into savings for a family holidayâ€?‌ “who am I to take from my family?â€?‌ Oh the guilt!!! A lot of those situations stem from historical beliefs. Beliefs which are deep in your subconscious of not being good enough nor worthy, obligations to put everyone else first; not knowing how to live without being deprived‌ etc.
This in no way means that you have to resort to missing out, it is actually a wonderful opportunity to grow from. And to initiate a deeper level of self-care and understanding. As you begin to understand yourself on deeper levels, you can upgrade your belief systems from what is no longer working for you and transform your life and yourself into that which you desire. You are important, you have value, you are here for great reasons. So that call you made that things are to change now‌ make it a real one. Invest in yourself in a way which is going to keep on giving to you, that will become expansive. It may take some dedication to yourself in time and money. But the improved outcome you experience, which on-flows to your family, is beyond worth it. Your last holiday may have been 10 years ago – but that doesn’t mean you can’t have 20 in the next 10 years!! www.evolvewitheta.com
