I’m going to write this as if it was yesterday, because my ideal plan was to be super organised and have everything drafted ready to post, but that never goes to plan. And that’s okay! I was too busy with doing a huge 2022 cleanse, and getting myself ready for the new year.
I am so lucky to say I saw 2022 in with family and friends who mean the world to me, and we just stayed in, relaxed and listened to music whilst sharing laughs and eating pizza. I along with quite a few others didn’t feel like going out out this year, as I’ve got older I’ve realised being in an intimate setting with those you love is way more fun and meaningful than queuing for hours at a low vibrational bar trying to find a taxi, ew. But saying that, if that is how you spent your New Years and you had the best night, I am so happy for you. 🤍
We all deserved a good night, and a lot of us may not have. Some people may of lost someone, or ended up having the worst New Years of their life, which in turn reminds me of how I strive to be a better person everyday so I can help others, and stay grateful.
2021 was a strange one. I had incredible moments, especially over the summer. Finally taking Jono to my most cherished place; Cornwall. Being asked to move in with him, and discovering new places and beaches and creating memories I will never forget with him and my family and friends.
It was also the year of more pain, self discovery which came with a lot of realisations, which resulted in releasing, which wasn’t always pretty. It included breaking down during therapy sessions, going back to the doctors to talk about anti depressants again, having sleepless nights trying to get out of my own head and unlearning years and years and years of generational and personal trauma.
But towards the end of the year I slowly started breaking out of auto pilot mode. I felt the numbness shift and along with that came great confusion but also peace. I cared less but in a good way, because I was shifting my energy and care towards things that for once in my life serve me. I met huge goals in my professional career and am only growing. I am falling back in love with my passions again. I’m believing in myself again. I stopped pressuring myself to work out and woke up slowly, asking myself what my body needed that day rather than forcing myself. I was gentle with myself, and started befriending my problems and intrusive thoughts, looking at it as a person who is trying to protect me rather than hurt me. Because that’s all it’s doing.
I started my CBD journey rather than going down the anti depressants route to see if it works for me, and I can honestly say after being on it for a week I already feel more focussed and motivated rather than allowing myself to get into huge slumps.
So along with that, I have put together some little guides on what you can do to help cleanse yourself and the home ready for this new year. Remember there’s no rush and no specific day you need to do this, don’t fall for those pressure videos telling you to ‘get your shit together’.
You can find this here. 🤍
And finally on day 1 of 365, we got a little furry friend. A new addition to the home, this little dude. Meet Pebble. 🐚 🌊
