Week 49- Why Struggle? Embrace Change All the links - linktr.ee/barbarafaison

How are you treating life? I hope you are slowing down and getting the rest you need. I am practicing Hygge (pronounced HOO-ga) - which means to surround yourself with people, activities, and things that make you feel cozy, loved, happy, or content. Check out week 45 - How do you Hygge? to find out more about the practice.

Change is what life is all about, right? Doing less, following nature’s guidance and getting enough rest are a few changes I’m learning to embrace.

When I wrote my book/ebook/audiobook, Why Struggle? Life is too short to wear tight shoes, it was as much a reminder for others as it was for myself.

I’ve been sharing excerpts from the book and will continue doing so over the next few weeks. It's a simple change that allows me to share some of the topics and it's great way for people to find out what the book is all about.
I hope you enjoy this excerpt called Embrace Change.

Embrace Change!

You probably got up this morning and got dressed. You may have showered, brushed your teeth, eaten breakfast, driven to work, read the newspaper, and had a cup of coffee or tea. You have already been through at least six changes. Every moment is a new change, every second is different from the last one. Change is a natural part of the life cycle. Learning to embrace change is a major step toward peace of mind.

Imagine seeing an old friend whom you loved dearly and giving him/her a loving hug. Think of this image the next time you have to handle a major change in your life. Picture yourself opening your arms and welcoming the opportunity to grow. Change will show up at your door regardless of how you feel about it. Learn to open the door and welcome your new friend, CHANGE, with a warm embrace.

Practice: Think of all the things that change in one hour. If you are having difficulty accepting change repeat the affirmation, “I am open and willing to accept change in my life.”

Affirmation: I trust the process of life and I easily flow with change.

Life is filled with changes and interruptions. I’m learning to go with the flow even more. lol. Most times.

I take a deep breath and say to myself… Barbara, what if you decided to go with this instead of fighting it? This question helps me reset my mind and reminds me that everything happens at just the right time.

How are you embracing change? You may reply to this newsletter/blog post or you can reach me at [e-mail]. If social media is easier for you to reach out, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn are best.
