Top 10 Things I Do All Week
People are curious as to what my morning routine looks like or what my day to day schedule includes. Honestly, no day looks like the one before. Each day is a blank canvas full of opportunities. And my number one goal is to lay my head on the pillow at night and say to myself, “I really LIVED today.” Some days HEART FULL LIVING may include a morning walk to the coffee shop to return home and immediately start writing and creating, while other days I’ll start with a meditation, breath work, and movement followed by a dreamy cup of butter coffee so that I have fuel for one or two back to back meetings. Some days may be completely adventurous like attending a birth and then skating in a parking garage like I’m a teenager, while the next day may be chiropractic care in an office, video meetings, coaching fitness, and writing blogs and creating content for BIRTHFIT. The unifying strings of all my daily activities is that I make a solid effort to be 100% present. It doesn’t matter what I’m doing or with who because that moment deserves my undivided attention.
That said, discipline plays a big role in self love and freedom for me. For me, discipline is a choice to show up for yourself and practice things that may otherwise be challenging or present an opportunity for which you can grow. Down the road, discipline leads to freedom because of the practice, the willingness to go deeper, and the soul confidence you build by continually showing up for yourself, even when it’s uncomfortable. Discipline is definitely an ingredient to HEART FULL LIVING.
Above you’ll see a list of things that are important to me and help me to optimally function. I make a solid effort to check off 3-5 of the bullet points a day. I don’t beat myself up if I miss a bullet point because it is what it is and I’m a human. I look at this list each week to see if it still checks out in my books. I revisit and reflect on each bullet point. Maybe there is a bullet point I haven’t done all week. I need to examine the why if I want to keep it on the list. Maybe there is a bullet point that I have done every day; is there a way for me to evolve this practice? I usually keep. 10-11 bullet points on this list. These are bullet points that help me to tune into me, be the best version of myself, and evolve my overall wellbeing. I’d encourage you to make a list that contributes to HEART FULL living for yourself. AND continually reflect and adapt this list as we are constantly arriving at newer versions of ourselves.
