June 2021 - Holding Space


June 2021 - Holding Space

Simply said, the idea of holding space for yourself and others is about slowing down and mindfully creating an opportunity for deep presence.

As we begin to emerge from the pandemic and all that it has wrought, it is starting to feel a little easier self-soothe and bring ourselves to a more regulated state when we're stressed. The restorative quality of summer vacation can also support the cultivation of calm and groundedness.

This month's invitation is to hold space for self-inquiry and honoring your own needs. This can take the form of checking in to see what you may need to allow into your life. It can also look like giving yourself permission to let go of whatever is no longer serving you.
