We all get so many messages to keep going and never give up, but it's actually really wise to pause - you're not 'quitting' by taking a break. You can go back to any kind of hard or painful work with renewed energy after giving yourself a bit of time away from it.
Whether you're finding your own way towards more successful learning or supporting others, the things that come up can be really heavy, and can sometimes slides us into the past.
These activities might help you return to the present moment. They might give you comfort, might help you gather strength, or just chill out. When we're overwhelmed, we might need tenderness and comfort. But sometimes - especially when there are too many thoughts racing in too many directions – we might just need to completely relax and quiet the mind.
Perhaps you already have your own ways of doing that, or you can try one of these options: You can watch a flower grow or sing a grounding song!
