Daily Intention Setting: Day 12

January 12

“Today I will rest in the fact that I’ve done enough.”

Please pardon the tardiness of today’s post. It’s been quite a busy day and I’ve had enough. In fact, I almost skipped writing this because I’m really tired and, quite honestly, I’d rather just go to bed. But this is important to me, so here I am.

I just noticed that I said that I’ve had enough. Of today. Of a few things, really. But interestingly enough that’s what today’s lesson is: I’ve done enough. And that certainly is true.

Michael Galyon is our teacher today and he reminds us that it’s ok to take the pressure off of ourselves to be perfect, to do it all, or to prove our worth. We are enough. Period. And we’ve done enough. “You are allowed to pause.” He invites us to put one hand on our chests and one on our bellies and simply notice the breath. Then he asks us to repeat the intention, but assures us that we’re not here to “force belief . . . you’re here to offer yourself a different experience . . . to let go of the mental list that never quite feels finished . . .” He tells us to rest and relax. To soften.

I needed this message today. I think we all need this message every day. We have done enough. We are enough. We need to lean into that thought. It’s ok . . .

I hope you have a great evening. Give yourself a break and rest knowing that you’ve done enough.
