Self-Focus

I chose to dedicate the month of April as my self-focus month on a journey to self-identity, courage, self reflect, healing, and growth. I identified where I was mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I needed a Reset in life with a weight I carried in my new beginning and the overwhelming space I was in. Self-care was needed along with time alone with self to search deep within. Within this month I took an entire week off for solitude. I disconnected from the world I knew(family, friends, social media, work). I reconnected with my inner being. I learned more about self. There were great cries through healing. There were things uprooted that needed to be released. I spent each day following my heart and going where I believe God led me. Embracing the new life I have on an island that is so beautiful. Nature presented an amazing setting for me to self-reflect, smile and tear. The lighthouse was my greatest moment to reach such a height, override fear, and see the world from a different perspective was needed. I sought after God more than I ever have alone in communion with Him in His presence and embracing His creations around me. If I may, I encourage you to take time to check in with yourself. How are you doing mentally, emotionally, and spiritually? Do you need to give yourself space and grace to reset or just rest? There is amazing healing that takes place in time alone. Knowing self before reconnecting in the world around you is so vital and important. Where is your self focus and self awareness?
