Sometimes we just need DEEP rest in the middle of a beautiful forest, 🌳 listening to the forest sounds and bathing in the forest’s healing, calming energy! I’m thinking the bird sounding in this 1 minute mindful walking clip is a lyrebird? Can anyone confirm? So much to listen to that all my senses were focussed in this moment, breathing in the scent of the wet forest and listening in my heart to the forest wisdom of the old and the new, the thriving and surviving, the stages of growth....and then... I discovered a leach, drinking its fill on my leg, and there was chaos and human noise in the forest!!! (I am NOT calm around leaches!!!) I still have so much to learn about staying calm!! 😂🌳🙄

Are you surviving or thriving? I’ve been thinking of this a lot lately as we worked in our garden (it had been a long time!!!) Amazing to see these sunflowers my daughter planted absolutely thrive while others planted just 3 metres away survive but not yet blossom! (Swipe right to see my sage only just surviving in a pot to being planted out day 1 and then thriving day 3!!) 🌱 🌻 What helps us as human beings to thrive rather than just survive? There’s so much in these crazy times that we can’t control but what conditions can we change to support ourselves to thrive? I was feeling burnt out awhile ago and have since prioritised doing what I can to thrive not just survive (my favourites being starting Pilates, more exploration in nature, more swimming, weekends away, more being time, more rest and meditation, & slowing life down to the essentials). As Tamu Thomas @livethreesixty recommends in her podcast with Michaela Thomas @the_thomas_connection we need to actively choose to step off the toxic productivity treadmill and do many small daily practices to support us to feel safe and calm in our bodies so we can thrive 🌱🌻🌳 May we all be safe, and be planted in good soil with great sun/rain to thrive 😊💖

One of the most important things I learned as a partner and a parent...when our threat system is triggered and we’re in fight, flight or freeze mode...no one is listening to understand, only to defend themselves! Taking a break, having a pre-arranged signal/agreement to do this if things get heated, and actively choosing to do something that will soothe our nervous system and bring our calm and connected system back online works so well (when we remember to do it!!) Practicing often makes it easier 🙂

First the pain, then the waiting, then the rising- my favourite quote from @glennondoyle (thank you 🙏🏼💖)...we need to feel, acknowledge, allow the pain of our emotions, then wait (rest, listen within, be still for awhile), only then will we know the next right step, we will RISE! And then rinse and repeat in this spiral journey of life!!! I feel like I’ve recently experienced this need for deep rest, waiting in stillness and it’s been wonderful this last week to trust the process and feel a gentle rising of energy and joy again 💕 Walking In Werrikimbe National Park recently, burnt badly by the fires two years ago, it was such a visual reminder of the pain, waiting, & rising...So sad to see the destruction and loss and so beautiful and hopeful to see the new growth, the abundance of spring flowers...the optimism of the new saplings...so too may we experience the new growth, the hopeful spring blossoming xx 💖🙏🏼 #spring #springflowers #bushfirerecovery #newgrowth

So great this am to kick off another season of CanToo Swimming 🏊‍♀️🏊‍♂️🐬and fundraising for Cancer Research.

What supports you to see clearly, to see the big picture, to see the multiple perspectives in complex situations, to bring in compassion, acceptance and your inner heart wisdom? For me, being in nature, journaling and getting still (meditation/visualisation) are my preferred 3 tools, but what works for you? I just loved the other night viewing the world through a jellyfish 😊😂 I just bought a new mic and recorded my favourite visualisation to access inner wisdom (I do a version of this almost daily!!)- would love your feedback 💖🙏🏼https://deepheartwisdom.com/free-resources/
