June: Less=More

June snuck up on me.

I wrote out some really lovely things to share with you all. However, I won’t be posting it this month. 

Last month was weird and tiring and so far this month has been tiring in a different way. 

All this to say- I am human and this human tends to pour her energy into various projects all at once and right now I’m not gonna lie, I don’t have much to pour from.

The blog I originally wrote is sweet and personal, but I will have to share another time. Instead, I feel this is more true right now.

I am trying to do less, so I can do more. 

Remember hobbies? I miss them, I think I'm shifting some of my projects simply into hobbies, with absolutely no intention of making money from them. Simply enjoyment. 

Even yoga used to be more enjoyable when I was just a student, turning things to work starts to suck the joy out. I think at some point I began to confuse quantity and quality, thinking if I tell folks I’m doing all these things, I must be super capable. 

I am capable, sure. But, man do you start to dislike a lot of things that brought so much fun into your life. 

Just doing things for fun has become less and less common. Everything has an instagram page and price, even having a dog is an extra income opportunity if your furry friend has enough followers.

I want to share less on social media as well, some experiences get to be only mine. I like the idea of relishing the fun and joy without the constant need of validation of the eyes on the other screens.  

So in June I am doing less, and doing more. 

More being present. More moving and making from a place of joy. More quality.  

It’s a thought in process- I want less screens and more connections. I want to live in balance with the universe and trust that what I am putting out there has a return of energy. Sometimes it will be money, other times it will not. And that’s fantastic.  

I want to do less. I want to do more. 

Here’s to a full June. No more empty cups and no more feelings of failure, perhaps we are not meant to punish our joy with overworked purpose.
