Minding Your Mind

Decks used can be found in the sources tab

The days have been so busy lately and it’s been very overwhelming to deal with everything going on. I have several things to do that are work-related, on top of getting things out of the way for a trip I’m taking to France (yes this is happening, and I can’t wait to get there already…) So what can I do to make the most of the time I have right now? Let's get to the cards to find this out.

So there’s been some sudden change and all of a sudden, it feels like I’m juggling a lot all at once. Choices need to be made and this is perhaps causing me to be dependent on the wrong things to get me through. The thing I’ve realized is that I’m likely acting from a place of hurt and pain over these things because change and I are no bueno. If I have a plan, I want to stick to it as closely as I can. But I need to know that when things do change, it’s not the end of the world and I have help navigating the emotions that come from this. Taking a break and getting my mind clear will go a long way for me because it will allow me to take action, rest in my authority and celebrate the achievements I’ve come to over time. It will also help me restore my boundaries and connect on an even deeper level with Spirit and what it has in store for me.
