FLOW

Good morning FLOW community :) Here is a position you can practice this week to welcome more ease into your life. What do you do to relax after a long day's work?

Also known as the Alexander position or active rest position, the constructive rest position will help you release the lower back and the muscles of the body to their normal resting position if you stay there long enough. This practice is ideal for people working in the medical, educational field as well as essential workers working on their feet all day. People working seated can also benefit a lot from this position as it allows the back of the neck and shoulders to rest fully supported by the firmness of the floor. You may also take this position in a quiet room where you will not be disturbed for a few moments if you are feeling anxious and need to find comfort and relief.

Enjoy your rest and take loving care of yourself.

Touch the Earth with Faith
Know that you are there for you as this new season begin. Know that you have everything you need to succeed. The time to start is now. The pace to go is your own at this moment. We invite you to welcome new habits in a way that is full of kindness towards yourself.
More info shortly.

The word routine can inspire a sense of redundancy or even bland repetitiveness for some! For those who find “routine” constraining, thinking of routine like a very personal ritual can create an atmosphere where each action carries a loving meaning or purpose.

The subtle difference is that by calling it a ritual, we choose to remain present in each action to appreciate what we are offering ourselves. A routine is a powerful habit enhancer because little energy is spent on thinking about the sequence of events.

The intent behind using the word ritual is to be present and create an emotional link to an activity that promotes wellness. See this emotional link grow over time as a result of this investment in your future self.

Performing a daily routine as a ritual can be a sign of love for the body, sends a message of hope and courage to the heart, and leaves an open space for the mind to welcome a new day.

…And if the word ritual does not resonate with you, find what feels good to you. Let the intention of your actions take you in the direction of your desires.

Rituel? Pourquoi?

Le mot routine peut inspirer à certains un sens de redondance, de répétition peu inspirant. Pour ceux qui trouvent le mot “routine” contraignant, penser à une routine comme étant un rituel très personnel peut créer une atmosphère où chaque action est empreinte d’une intention ou d’une signification remplie d’affection.

La subtilité de l’usage du mot rituel nous invite à rester présent dans chaque action, apprécier ce qu’elle nous offre. Une routine est une façon merveilleuse de consolider de bonnes habitudes puisqu’elle nous épargne l’énergie nécessaire à planifier quelles actions suivront ensuite.

L’intention de rebaptiser sa routine en rituel nous rappelle d’être présent et créer un lien émotionnel avec une activité qui favorise le bien-être. Voyez ce lien émotionnel grandir avec le temps comme étant un résultat de l’investissement dans la personne que vous serez dans le futur.

Pratiquer un rituel au quotidien peut être un signe d’amour pour le corps, envoie une message d’espoir et de courage au cœur et laisse à l’esprit un espace vaste afin d'accueillir un jour nouveau.

…Et si le mot rituel ne vous convient pas du tout, trouvez ce qui vous fait vous sentir bien dans votre peau. Laissez l’intention de vos actions et votre présence vous mener dans la direction de vos rêves.

Tempted and resisting?

Food doesn’t have to be the enemy.

Taking the time to savor food can be another way to show ourselves self-love. It doesn’t cost anything to be present to savor every bite and the pleasure that comes with it.

At your next meal or snack, start by taking the first piece of food like a beautiful offering to yourself. You can add an affirmation saying, “I am grateful and happy to offer myself this piece of chocolate,” if you’re having chocolate.

How does it feel? Live this moment with loving attention. It is unique, memorable and completely yours. Welcome new habits and elevate your lifestyle.

Our 8-week FLOW journey invites all to experience a portable urban retreat with openness, curiosity and playfulness. We invite you to follow us on our multiple social media platforms to keep you encouraged, focused and inspired.
