Losing myself in the busyness and chasing the next thing
Since I remember, I was constantly on the go. My days were overflowing with people to see, places to be, things to do. I prided myself on being busy - it gave me a sense of purpose and achievement.
But in my quest to keep moving, I never developed a connection with myself. I didn’t hear my body’s signals. I would feel tired or tense or just “off” but ignore it and keep moving on. I confused feeling wired and scattered with feeling alive and energised.
I thought this busyness is what a fulfilling life should look like
I sought out intensity in everything I was doing - late nights socialising, pushing myself hard during exercise - to cover up any unpleasant feelings that might surface. I was constantly busy as my mind was.
In chasing the next thing, I lived life with little depth, just skimming the surface. Following the life as everyone else was living.
Breathwork and mindfulness as a gateway to live authentic and purposeful life
This changed when I discovered mindfulness, breathwork, meditation and other practices that showed me how to slow down, turn within, and connect deeply with myself. I realised that not a thrill was my favourite feeling, but peace.
In stillness, I accessed inner wisdom that had been drowned out by all the noise. I connected to unhealed emotions in my body and began clearing them, peeling all the layers of unworthiness and self doubt. I started nurturing myself instead of driving myself to exhaustion.
Quieting my mind allowed me to discover my purpose and let my heart to lead. I got clarity about my values, passions, and purpose. I started hearing my inner voice guiding me towards a liberated life filled with meaning.
The journey continues, but my days feel fuller when living slower, consciously with purpose. I learned how to quiet my mind and connect to the body. This is the liberation I want for you too.
If you feel burn out and struggle to find meaning whatever exciting thing you do, this is the time to tune in inwards and connect deeply within. I have walked this journey myself - from disconnectedness to living in tune with my purpose. Now I offer my guidance to help you to awaken your intuition, shed self-doubt and feel fully alive. If you are ready, I recommend 1:1 Liberation Breathwork and Sound Bath to gain more clarity on your next steps.
