Joanne Peh Instagram – With the arrival of spring, I continue to find pockets of time to slow down, a practice I like to call ‘active pausing.’ It’s a misconception that to pause means to be passive. On the contrary, it’s a deliberate choice to engage more meaningfully with the present moment. Through my own journey, I’ve come to realise that sensory overload isn’t exclusive to children; I experience it, too. Symptoms for me manifest as impatience and frustration. But now, instead of succumbing to these feelings, I acknowledge them and share what I’m going through with my family. It’s astonishing how simply voicing that I’m feeling overwhelmed can significantly diminish its hold on me. May this Dragon Year bring forth the transformation of potential conflict into opportunities for connection and understanding. #FendiSS24 @fendi
