Can you believe that we are past the halfway point of this year? It seems only yesterday that we were thinking about what this year would hold for us.
The older I get, the faster the years seem to slip away. When I was a child the year seemed to go on forever and I thought it strange that my grandparents always remarked how quickly time seemed to be slipping by. And now I’m the grandparent and I totally understand where they were coming from.
The passing of time seems to catch us out. I have been reflecting on this recently and realise how important it is to make every moment count by being fully present in that moment. We don’t get those moments back.
We can work ourselves into the ground, trying to get everything right, forcing change, trying in our own strength to make things happen. Maybe we need to take a step back, appreciate what we have; the people around us, the experiences, and the moment.
Of course, it is worth putting effort in to get the job done. But as I get older, I realise that taking time to nurture the inner person, to breathe deeply, develop supportive spiritual practices and to be kind to myself, actually enable me to get the job done more effectively.
By engaging in these practices, I am healthier, I can think more clearly, and I am definitely more productive. I don’t want to let any more time just slip away. I want to be present in the moment and I invite you to join me on the journey.
For this reason, in my leadership coaching, I am focusing more on leadership wellbeing. This means adding in a well-being focus on all my coaching as well as dedicated 1 and 2 day well-being retreats.
I’m kicking these off in just a few months. Each retreat will have limited numbers to enable a more personalised experience. I am also developing our 5-day getaway experiences, which i will be starting in the new year. If you are interested in these getaway experiences, check out my website www.thespiritualtraveller.net
