(Mood) Swinging into Spring
It’s the time of year in Virginia when you might spend lunch eating salad on a patio in short sleeves -- only to find yourself bundling up against a hard freeze at night. Last Saturday, my daughter and I were scooting around Albemarle County in the convertible with the top down, her impressive playlist blasting as we careened through country roads. All-day, utter JOY! And on Sunday, I curled up by one last fire as wintry clouds hung low in the air. I was moody all day. Geoff and I called it the "first sign of spring hangover".
During times of transition, even seasonal changes, we may find ourselves using extra energy to weather the dynamic shifts. We plant seeds in the warmth of the sun, only to rush out in the afternoon to cover them with tents and protect them from the frost. We keep winter coats and spring sandals by the front door, so our bodies are comfortable despite the fluctuations.
And when you’re in the midst of big life plans -- New school! New job! New baby! New house! OR if you’re feeling STUCK when everyone else seems to be on the up and up -- it might be helpful to offer yourself a little emotional scaffolding as well.
In light of this, I’ll be hosting IG Live EFT meditations in April on Tuesdays at 8 pm EST.
If you’re not available at 8 pm, no worries -- I’ll post them to TheLovelyUnbecoming grid as well. (If you're not familiar with EFT, head over to my YouTube Channel for a tutorial.)
Thank you for the suggestions for tapping topics!
Here’s the schedule for April:
April 6: The Waiting Game -- Releasing feelings of anxiety when you’re waiting for that call
April 13: It’s Not Me, It’s You -- Releasing feelings of irritation after a challenging conversation
April 20: Get Grounded -- This Spring is about transitions, and we take a moment to get our bearings
April 27: Cultivating Ease -- Let’s tap into a peaceful, relaxed state. Rest is an essential part of growth.
In the meantime, here’s an Audio Meditation on CLARITY, because the sun is out today, but it’s gonna rain tomorrow.
Enjoy the wild fluctuations of this week! I'll see you on the other side.
