Cultivate Your Superpowers: Choosing to show up for yourself, over and over again

Nov 14

What started out as 10 minutes on my yoga mat when Levi was little, (desperate for time to myself), has now become my most treasured, non-negotiable time of my day. It has been transformative.

Nearly six years ago, I made a decision to show up for myself.

I truly needed it on a deep level, so I just kept doing it one day at a time.

The benefits were immense, the greatest of which was how good it felt to show myself that I mattered enough to make time for ME.

Every day for 2000 days I have shown up for myself and it means more to me than any award I could win or traditional measure of "success."

I'm no different than you are. I'm not special or exceptional.

I simply choose, (on purpose, over and over again), to make my AM "meditation" routine an essential absolute in life.

That's really all discipline is.

Making the same choice over and over towards a higher purpose/why.

Choosing for you.

For me, whether stretching, PT exercises, AM walk, meditation, affirmations, journaling, somatic work, reading or laying on a neck massage tool while listening to an Insight Timer track, that time has pulled me forward, closer and closer to the woman, person, parent, wife, coach and leader I wish to be.

Have I had to make changes so I can get up between 5 and 5:30 daily? Sure. Do I stay up late? Um no! (Just ask my family 😂). AND it’s worth it.

You may have routines that you have daily (scrolling anyone?), that don't draw you towards your best self or cultivate your Superpowers.

It's ok.

Start where you are.

Pick one thing you WOULD like to ad in. (And reflect for a few minutes on WHY it would matter so much. See it in your mind, how it might make a difference and support you towards who you wish to be.)

Start with 5 minutes.

Start with 2 or 3 days a week.

Link it to a habit you already do daily (i.e. coffee, getting dressed, brushing teeth).

One day at a time, keep showing up for yourself, because you CHOOSE to.

What's one thing you'd love to build some choice and discipline around?
