today I went on a little adventure to the AGO (the Art Gallery of Ontario). . . . .I’ve wanted to go for months. I kept putting it off saying that I would go on Wednesday nights when it’s free. but it didn’t happen. . . . .so today while the kids napped (and my hubby was home), I decided to get on the subway. I bought a yearly AGO pass for $35 and now my visits can happen outside of Wednesday nights. . . .there was no particular exhibit I wanted to see. I just wandered until I found something that inspired me - which was a really cool exhibit on mail art. . . .and I left with three things: . . .1) a reminder that art is thinking in visual form. artists are people with something to say. . . .2) I need to do this more often. Julia Cameron talks about the importance of Artist’s Dates (actually taking yourself out on a date - to go out somewhere on your own). Have you ever done it? You need to try it! 👌🏼 . . . .and 3) I left with two questions jotted in Notes on my phone: What do I think? What do I want to say? . . . . #thesearchforself #mindfulnessliving #wellbeingjourney #wellbeingtips #mentalhealthwellness #momencouragement #intentionalmom #selfcareideas #selfcareaccounts #braveandfree #choosingme #seekingjoy
have been playing with the idea of using tarot cards to create weekly goals / fun personal challenges. . . .last week it led me to a beach adventure with my kids (in the snow), a yoga class and trip to the gym, and sharing more of myself online. . . .if you’d like to give it a try, I pull three cards and share them in my insta story every Monday. pick a card (or few) and have fun creating a weekly goal for yourself ❤️. . . . .#thesearchforself #mindfulness #mindfulnessliving #wellbeingjourney #wellbeingtips #mentalhealthwellness #momencouragement #intentionalmom #selfcareideas #selfcareaccounts
this is my happy place ❤️. . . .every weekend or so, I get to sneak away for a few hours to a local coffee shop that I love, while Eric does something fun with the kids. . . .It’s a chance to write and think and make things. A little window of time when I can finally pour everything out of my head that’s been gathering and bouncing around for weeks. (today it was my book proposal and new pieces for The Search for Self for February!) . . . .this is what self-care looks like for me. I feel so much better afterwards - as though lighter. I feel more like myself. . . .I’m getting better at noticing how I feel without it and learning to schedule it into my weekly planning. I’m also getting used to the idea that having a routine or schedule isn’t restrictive and takes away freedom. Instead I’m putting things into place to take care of myself, whether I like it or not sometimes. . . . .for those in The Search for Self (@thesearchfor_self ) I’m wondering if you would be interested in seeing how I schedule self care into my monthly planning? Was thinking of doing a fun video with my planner. DM or let me know here!👇🏼 . . . . . . .#thesearchforself #mindfulness #mindfulnessliving #wellbeingjourney #wellbeingtips #mentalhealthwellness #momwriter #momencouragement #intentionalmom
