Day 07

...Flourishing is a process not a destination.

Welcome to Day SIX of our A-Z+ of Seasonal Sanity Savers – 2024.

Well knowing me, you know for today’s letter ‘F’ I would have chosen Flourishing. It is a fabulous, festive (go figure!) and fantastic word after all, right? Let us make it YOURS!

For me, because flourishing is a process not a destination, during this festive season I need to focus on things that bring me that inner joy and happiness.

I will need to nurture my whole being, my heart, mind, and body, so I’m able to ride the rollercoaster of madness ahead. Who knows, I may even enjoy it!

Let’s begin with focusing on what you feel passionate about, especially until the end of the month.

Is it quietly decorating your home and savouring the warm glow of twinkling lights?
Or prepping some of the dishes for the big day in advance so you get to enjoy more family time?
Or taking some quiet time to wrap the presents?

All of those are achievements and we shouldn’t discount how important they may be.

Whatever it is that makes your heart and soul feel fulfilled, and helps you remember that you matter and your ‘why’ matters – is a flourishing choice!

At its heart, flourishing is about what enables you to feel connected with what matters, and that is usually intensely personal. You may feel pressure from others around you to do things there way and align with their routines.

Resource yourself so you stay true to who you are and the choices you’re making. Keep your actions aligned with your values and what truly matters to you in your life.

And hey, let us not forget our body and heart – we can’t live an authentic life if we’re compromising part of what our being needs.

Being a flourishing introvert is all about being able to stand behind the choices and decisions you make so that there is full in alignment with your core values and life path.

Ready for a big question? What one thing could you do this month that would enable you to choose flourishing every day, even when things get tough?

Tomorrow we’ll meet the letter ‘G’ – can you guess what power tool it might at your tool kit? What would your G be about?
