Elizabeth Frances Instagram – I was incredibly fortunate to start my year supporting @graciousmermaid in leading her first #soulfulfreedivingretreat with her company @saltwater.bodywork in #konahawaii 🧜🏽♀️
This group of amazing women/humans started 2023 off by diving deep into themselves and the water in the spirit of connection, embodiment, and reciprocity.
I saw women who are often caretakers, take time for themselves to connect, laugh, share their wisdom, their stories, grow, and also be cared for.
It was a wonderful reminder for me that pause, reflection, and awareness before movement, planning, or momentum can be so powerful. That a metaphorical (and non metaphorical) breath before the dive in to a project, the new year, work, a relationship, or the actual ocean, makes it that much more present and intentional.
So as we all are hit with things from the world, our lives, and moving towards what is next, I encourage you friends, and myself, take small moments of pause to check in with your breath, feel the feelings, find your presence and intention…and then move from that place. With your whole self and your whole heart. #divedeepwithinyourself this year ❤️🧜🏽♀️
