Mindset Monday- Come Home

Come home to yourself.

Sometimes starting something completely new feels like a lot, too much to add to our plate when we already feel like we aren’t managing our chaos well.

Revisiting an old favorite can feel like a new beginning, but in a reunion sort of way. It can help ground us, give us a more solid footing and serve as a reminder of who we’ve been, who we still are deep down.

Home is a feeling, not a place.

Home always leaves the light on for you.

So this week, let’s come home to ourselves.

Home is what whispers "you are safe, you are loved and I am so proud of you."

What does coming home to yourself look like for you? Return home to yourself and feel the light welcome you in.

One suggestion is to take time to revisit old hobbies from when you were in 2nd grade, do something that brings back good memories and gives you a reminder of who you are within.

  • Connect with an old friend with a handwritten card or a phone call

  • Listen to an old mixed CD or create a playlist of your favorite songs from junior high or high school

  • Pull out one of those vintage outfits lurking in your closet or try a retro hairstyle or makeup trend

  • Reread a favorite book from childhood

  • Put on those running shoes or sport clothes and revisit your sporting days

  • Make your favorite recipe your mom used to make

What is something that reminds you of your true self? What is a hobby or something you used to enjoy that you will give a try this week? Like this post and share how you come home to yourself.
