The Conscious Pause

Sip of the Week: We all have an innate ability to reset, but sometimes life gets in the way. In this week's conversation, we explore how a true energy reset happens when we create space to reconnect with our essence. When our minds get too full, we "forget how to dream," and when our hearts get overloaded, we "forget how to feel and connect." Taking action to shift your energy becomes an act of love and responsibility not just for yourself but for everyone around you. Whether through therapy, movement practices, or simply calling a friend who brings out your playful side, acknowledging when you're not at your best is the first step to creating that potent space where healing, dreaming, and authentic connection become possible again. Listen now!

Let it Brew: Reset is a space of potent energy that exists within us naturally, though we often overlook its importance. In our conversation, we explored how the need for an energy reset emerges when our minds become too full to dream and our hearts too loaded to truly feel and connect. These moments of disconnection from our essence—our true self—don't require dramatic life changes to remedy, but rather conscious acknowledgment and intentional action. When we create rituals that help us return to ourselves, whether through movement, connection with others, or simply changing our environment, we tap into what our guest called "a potent space" where healing, dreaming, and authentic connection become possible again. The most powerful insight? Taking responsibility for our energy isn't selfish—it's an act of love for ourselves and everyone around us, because we simply cannot contribute positively to the world when disconnected from our essence.

Post-Tea Pursuits: PRACTICE ACKNOWLEDGING when you're not at your best.

On your own, take 5 minutes to check in with your energy levels. Ask yourself:

• Where in my life am I feeling disconnected from my essence or true self?
• What specific actions help me reset when I'm feeling overwhelmed or stuck?
• What small step could I take today to create space for dreaming and feeling again?

Commit to one energy reset practice this week. It could be as simple as a daily ritual (like a morning hike to see your "palm tree"), calling a friend who energizes you, or creating a dedicated space that helps you reconnect with yourself. WRITE IT DOWN, and notice how taking intentional action shifts your energy! Let me know what reset practice you choose—I'd love to cheer you on!
