Keeping it Creative

Career Rebirth

Back in early fall, when I decided to partner with my arsenal of wellness experts and offer courses on how yoga therapy can enhance our lives, Lauren was the first person I contacted. (Though in truth she had already planted the seed for a collab together months earlier, because she is ahead of the trends like that! 😉)

Lauren is not only a talented artist but also incredibly generous, always sharing what she finds. After becoming a mother, she reinvented her career, turning her pre-motherhood disquiet into a successful post-birth career. True to her nature, she wanted to share her success recipe with others. After having completed some yoga therapy work together, Lauren saw the perfect opportunity to merge our skills, leading to the creation of Career Rebirth!

Lauren’s Top 3 Tips

1. Daily Intention

Summer schedules can be unpredictable and evolving so a "design my day" journal (could even be an icloud note or special app) is a lovely way to keep in touch with what you want to prioritize on a daily basis in an ever shifting schedule. It could be as setting a simple intention for the day, or as detailed as mapping out each and every moment. Flexibility is key in the summer months. 

2. Impromptu Picnic

Keep a muslin in your bag even if the baby days are long gone. No one wants to carry around a picnic blanket but much more outdoor time is spent in the summer months. Muslins are light and easy for throwing down on a bench or grass for an impromptu outdoor moment with or without your children. 

3. Find Time for Fun!

Find time for creativity - JUST FOR FUN! Keep a small sketchbook, poetry journal, or something that lights you up on hand. When you find a moment of your own, don't be tempted to pick up your phone. It's simply miraculous what 5-10 minutes of spontaneous creativity (without a sensor) can do for your spirit!
