I understand that not hustling is a luxury but slowing down is also a choice. What we need to strive for is a balance.

I want to go to happy hour for espresso martinis with the girls, but I don’t want to get nothing done the next day

I used to struggle with discipline, but discipline has become a habit now that I have practiced enough. The more I follow through and show up for myself the morning after, the more confident and eager I am to balance these two worlds. Go to the happy hour, and don’t let it stop you from a productive day. Now that I’ve cultivated a disciplined set of wellness habit, I am working on being okay with taking a day or two off because I know I am discipline enough to jump right back into my groove.

On the parenting end, this year has helped me realize that I want to treat “Mom” as a more important job than my paid employment
Keywords: Expat Life , Expat Parenting , Expat Work
Embrace work-life balance and eschew workaholism. Like I said above, my current role is very supportive in terms of work-life balance. Meanwhile, my new mom efficiency (gotta get as much done in 30min in case the nap is only that long!) means I’m able to get a lot done in a short amount of time daily. But my American workaholic brain is having a hard time letting go of the metric of “hours worked” as equivalent to productivity and success. This year, I want to work on rewiring that part of my brain.

The moment I knew that I want to carry on this pregnancy, it was a completely different feeling all together
Keywords: Writing
Even today, I am not able describe that feeling. It was just so peaceful. The thought of bringing a new life into this world was making me nervous as well. I just started preparing my mind to accept it whole heartedly and be at peace all the time. I believed a mothers’ mood impacts the baby (foetus) health. I told myself, ‘If I want a healthy, happy baby, I will have to be like that. No more shedding tears, unless absolute need 🙂 . No more argument, just healthy discussions. You become the one that you want your baby to be when he\she will be in this world.’ Although I found it to be a bit difficult to stick to my pregnancy resolution later, due to change in body conditions. The hormones were at play and sometimes I was just becoming a puppet to them, unable to control anger. Will discuss about it later in depth.

I want to be invincible again
Keywords: aging , falling , hiking
I have friends who have stopped going for walks in winter, afraid of slipping on icy sidewalks. I’ve given up ice skating, and other friends have given up skiing. But how do we balance our need for exercise and getting outside with being safe? I was talking to a friend about this, and we agreed you need to find a balance: be more careful and more aware but don’t let the fear stop you from doing things you love. It’s a hard balance to find, but one that’s becoming increasingly necessary as we gingerly step into a new phase of aging.

When I do good in one area, I want to keep that momentum going and consequently fall short in another
Keywords: {0}
When I am on a roll with writing, I neglect my family. When I spend time with my family, I worry that I didn’t do enough to find a job. At the end of one task, I will try to do another and seemingly lack the energy and focus I want. The wheels in my head start turning and by the end of the day, I feel like nothing was accomplished.

I want to advocate that it’s okay to take things slow
Keywords: {0}
I do know there are many out there , like me, wanting to take things slow but too afraid to drop out of the race around. Many out there who think maybe if I put effort the next two days I can’t relax t he next three. But honestly that’s not how it works. All the five days need a balance. And it’s okay to be slow. You aren’t competing with anyone. You’re just getting yourself better. You’re growing. And that’s what’s important. YOUR GROWTH.

I believe we can’t help but to want to be better human beings and do our part to make this earth a more beautiful home for all living beings
Keywords: teaching
My breath become fuller and my back became stronger and more flexible. I felt more confident in myself and I found myself wanting to be a better person, to improve on qualities such as practicing patience and forgiveness, and balancing out the various aspects of life such as work, socializing and play time, exercising, eating well, spending quality time with Rick, spending time in nature, gardening, learning, reading, sleeping. I know that maintaining balance is a constant effort; it’s the dance of life. Yoga helps me to navigate the dance gracefully.
