TOGETHER WE CAN DO SO MUCH MORE.

I DIDN'T ALWAYS CHOOSEREAL.. RAW EXPOSURE & WHAT I NOW KNOW...

There was a time I didn't choose real. I chose to try and be like everyone else. I desperately wanted to fit in. But I couldn't. I was trying to be what I thought others wanted, but was always left feeling confused and empty. In my mind, I was not enough...  See the full post by our brave founder Ruth.

😂 Who else can be a PROcrastinator? What’s your go-to activity? ⠀ ⠀ So often it’s good things like cleaning, organisation, planning, research, exercise, reading, baking, work... anything that feels good, but actually draws us away from what we really need to do in the moment.⠀ ⠀ The whole balance between what is important and what is urgent. ⠀ ⠀ And sometimes neither, like one more episode, or endlessly scrolling through threads, or replaying that argument. ⠀ ⠀ The key - being clear about our PRIORITIES and PROACTIVELY planning to meet them. ⠀ ⠀ Otherwise, life seems to just happen and we feel that we had no control over our time, resources, energy, mindset. But we do have some control.⠀ ⠀ Yes, life can throw us many curve balls that can bump us off track, but in the day-to-day activities, we can choose to just crastinate a little or procrastinate our priorities and dreams away. ⠀ ⠀ We choose where we put our time, energy, focus, resources. ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 So what’s your realistic priorities in this season? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 How can you proactively focus on them? Are there boundaries you can set? Are there skills you can learn? Are there people you can ask to help you and remind you? Are there things you need to let go of for now or cut back? ⠀ ⠀ We all have seasons where we procrastinate more then others, sometimes there’s a deeper root that we are not facing - maybe ask a trusted friend if you just feel you are so PRO and don’t know how to come back.⠀ ⠀ No matter what, you are worthy and valuable.⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough
Mid-week breather. There is a pace for your race, and that’s where you’ll discover grace. ⠀ ⠀ You don’t need to slog it out, to give all of yourself to making things happen, to be ruled by productivity, perfectionism, profit. To go go go until you collapse in an exhausted pile. ⠀ ⠀ That is not sustainable (been there). That is not life-giving. That is not the goal - to be utterly exhausted and distracted that we can’t even engage in the things that matter most. ⠀ ⠀ We were created for work and REST. ⠀ ⠀ Our body, mind, soul, spirit needs to be refreshed and renewed - regularly and intentionally.⠀ ⠀ I’m still learning to create space in my week for rest and restoration.⠀ ⠀ We weren’t meant to just keep going (although I’ve definitely believed this before). ⠀ ⠀ I’m wanting to live in RHYTHMS OF GRACE - a foundational beat of rest, and working FROM rest (not for rest). ⠀ ⠀ Let’s take a moment right now, imagine yourself sitting here with this view. Breathe deeply. Bring yourself back from the past or future and just sit in the presence for a moment. ⠀ ⠀ Let the beat of rest drum in your heart for a moment. ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What does your weekly rhythm look like? Do you need to add a foundational beat of regular rest? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 Do you work for rest or from rest? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What can you do this week to get refreshed and renewed? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What’s your relationship with rest? Do you need to reframe it as essential, foundational? ⠀ ⠀ I post about rest a lot as it’s something I am still learning and working out. I know how essential it is, but can be hard to translate into actions - these posts are as much a reminder for me as they are for you. I am learning and growing. We’re in it together x⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough⠀ ⠀ 📸 Thanks to @alliemtaylor
Thank YOU! Your bravery encourages others to speak out, step up and step in to their own story and strengths. ⠀ ⠀ T A G and C E L E B R A T E.⠀ ⠀ 🙌🏻 Let's celebrate all those in our lives who show us what it means to be courageous and brave. ⠀ ⠀ Showing up and letting their REAL selves be seen. Taking risks and trying something, even when the outcome is not known. Having courage to allow others into their story. Being a part of someone else's story. Showing love even when it hurts. Staying connected. Owning their story. Creating change. Taking one step forward. ⠀ ⠀ Thank you for being brave, courageous, vulnerable and REAL. You are making the way for others... ⠀ ⠀ Let's speak it out! Encourage others and let them know their impact today.⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough
“Forgiveness - doesn’t always restore a relationship, but it will always heal your heart” - @trishalopezdavis // @propelwomen⠀ ⠀ Let’s not stay stuck and bitter in unforgiveness. ⠀ ⠀ It’s like a bitter seed leaking toxins in your body - it eats away at your peace, contentment, trust, joy, perspective.⠀ ⠀ Forgiving someone is not saying what they did is ok, it’s choosing to be released from its hold on you, it’s choosing to give grace when it’s undeserved, it’s choosing to acknowledge that we all make mistakes and not being consumed by resentment and revenge. ⠀ ⠀ It’s a bold, courageous choice. ⠀ ⠀ And it also brings freedom. ⠀ ⠀ Sometimes we need to forgive over and over again - when we feel resentment and bitterness rise, forgive again, let go of its power to trap you in chains. ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 So, is there someone in your life you need to forgive? Do you feel bitter and resentful to someone? Is it consuming you or even just flares up when you see / think about them? Let’s forgive and find freedom.⠀ ⠀ Here’s a few STEPS TO FORGIVENESS: ⠀ ⠀ 1. Be aware of your feelings and share - ⠀ ⠀ 2. Know that forgiveness is for your own sake -⠀ ⠀ 3. Do not expect reconciliation -⠀ ⠀ 4. Recognize how the event is affecting you in the present -⠀ ⠀ 5. Learn to activate a healthy response - ⠀ ⠀ 6. Concentrate on what you can control - ⠀ ⠀ 7. Move on / stop replaying -⠀ ⠀ 8. Be the agent of change in your own life -⠀ ⠀ 9. Change the story -⠀ ⠀ ** These steps are all explained in the comments below 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻⠀ ⠀ If you are finding these steps hard - that’s ok, ask for help. Sometimes we need others to help up see what we can’t or to go together.⠀ ⠀ It’s so worth it! ⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough ⠀ ⠀ 📸 @peak_creative
🙌🏻 Who else needs this reminder today? Life can feel like a rollercoaster and that’s ok - I feel like life is just full of ups and downs, of highs and lows, of light and dark. ⠀ ⠀ That’s normal. ⠀ ⠀ Be gentle with yourself wherever you’re at. ⠀ ⠀ After all, the beautiful rainbow only comes after the dark storm clouds - there’s beauty and purpose in everything you go through. Keep holding on.⠀ ⠀ 🌈🌈🌈⠀ ⠀ We are stepping back a little bit on socials to allow for the roaster coaster of life - just needing to lean into rest and recovery a bit more and make space for getting clarity and direction.⠀ ⠀ We’ll still be here, posting about 3 times a week, coz we love this community and want to keep connected, but just a heads up if we seem a little quieter, that’s why. ⠀ ⠀ Got to listen to our own advice to be kind to ourselves and prioritize rest when needed. ⠀ ⠀ So we give you full permission to also ask yourself, how can you be kinder to yourself in the season you’re in.⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 Is there anything you need to let go or lighten right now? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 Is there anything you can add to help you ride this rollercoaster? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 How can you be gentle and kind to yourself? What would you say / do for others? Do it for you.⠀ ⠀ You deserve your love and attention too.⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough ⠀ ⠀ 📸 @stacieswift
Shake it off lovely, it’s a brand new day. A new adventure awaits. The sun is rising over our yesterday. Let’s start afresh. ⠀ ⠀ No matter what you got through last week or what was left unfinished or pushed aside. ⠀ ⠀ No matter what you set out to change or be or do that didn’t happen as you planned.⠀ ⠀ Don’t let that inner critic steal your joy and confidence and peace - you did not fail. ⠀ ⠀ I know mine was shouting loudly last week, but let’s lean into truth... ⠀ ⠀ You are worthy and valuable and have a unique purpose. You are worthy of rest and love and slow and steady growth. ⠀ ⠀ You are strong and brave and capable. ⠀ ⠀ You are enough - not based on what you do or don’t do, but who you are. ⠀ ⠀ Breathe. It’s a new day. ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What are you letting go of from last week? Let’s not take it with us into this new day.⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What lies is your inner critic whispering to you? Replace it with the truth.⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What are you choosing to try again or to start over? ⠀ ⠀ We’re standing with you x⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough⠀ ⠀ 📸 @alliemtaylor
I’m learning to ask for help and that’s okay. ⠀ ⠀ I’m leaving to tell others exactly what I need and how I feel and that’s okay.⠀ ⠀ I’m learning how to surrender control and allow others to help me and that, that is totally okay.⠀ ⠀ - beautiful words and pic by the amazing @youremytype_⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What are you learning is okay (and actually so good for us and those around us)? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 How are you doing really? Do you need to ask for help? Tell others want you really need? Share how you’re feeling? Surrender control? Allow others to help? What do you need? ⠀ ⠀ You’re not alone lovely! We all need help! It take courage and strength to reach out and ask for help x⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough
“Talk to yourself like you would talk to someone you love.” - @brenebrown⠀ ⠀ Just a reminder to check how you’re speaking to yourself. ⠀ ⠀ Sometimes we can be our own worst critic, but let’s choose to be our best cheer leader! ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 What do you need to hear today? ⠀ ⠀ 👉🏻 How can you speak to yourself like you would to those you love? ⠀ ⠀ Let’s speak life and truth over ourselves and others.⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough ⠀ ⠀ 📸Pinterest
We don’t always choose the storms we walk through, but we can choose how we walk them out and how we keep living after them. ⠀ ⠀ And even if we get swept out, if we fall, we can always choose again and again. ⠀ ⠀ We can choose how we SEE the storm and how we REACT. ⠀ ⠀ And that is our greatest power. We choose. ⠀ ⠀ Tag a friend you see shining ✨⠀ ⠀ You’ve got a glow about you lovely! ⠀ ⠀ 💜Ruth x⠀ ⠀ #ChooseREAL #MoreThanEnough
