Push Pause
There used to be an advertising scheme, to encourage people to move/exercise more called ‘PUSH PLAY’ - but as life is about balance, I think it is also important to remember to ‘PUSH PAUSE’ as well!
There is a rhythm to life, just as there are changing seasons – SPRING + SUMMER + AUTUMN + WINTER. This isn’t just talking about as we age, but also a reminder of the importance of taking time to pause… to breathe.
This is one of the things I love about creating, it causes you to pause, to breathe, to contemplate, to be ‘in the moment’, rather than just focusing ahead on the list of ‘to do’s’.
I sometimes feel the ‘craft’ we find ourselves doing, isn’t actually the important part, it is more about ‘learning’ to take time out of our busy schedules, to just step aside for a moment.
Surely taking time to ‘step aside’ has been one of the positives we have learnt from the season we have all found ourselves in recently.
So pencil it in, book it in, create a space to create! Julz
