Mr D has been giving me daily pep talks. Yesterday Mr D has been giving me daily pep talks. Yesterday I was laying in bed reading and he came in to check on me. Then he told me about an article he read from a doctor about surviving mentally in quarantine times. He couldn’t remember where he’d read it or who the doctor was, but he remembered their recommendations. They were so good I made him wait so I could get out paper I’d just painted and write it on there like a poster. This is going to be my self care guidelines going forward. Now, more than ever, I need to treat myself impeccably and gently. I thought I’d share it with you so Mr D could give you the pep talk too. Our mental health is hugely important right now. We need the tools to survive and thrive through these times. I love you. L 🌈

I’ve been doing ok until last night, when everyt I’ve been doing ok until last night, when everything fell on top of me. At least I have Mr D to make me laff and laff and laff. I mean... he wasn’t wrong! 😂😂😂 (P.S. I’m ok and I’m not and that’s completely understandable. I’ve got a good support team, and I’m on my meds, and will keep upping my self care to rebalance again. All of this is just an awful lot, right? I love you guys. ❤️❤️❤️)
Dearest, I was talking to some mum friends earlie Dearest, I was talking to some mum friends earlier today... a few of them shared how hard they are finding this, and how much they aren't coping. And I reminded them: we are only going to survive and thrive through this by filling our own wells first. Self care isn't a nicety right now, it's a necessity. Otherwise we will go bonkerdoodles. I learned this when I became a first time Mum and thought the best way to parent was to be a martyr. To give up everything of myself until there was nothing left. Spoiler alert: it didn't work. It fuc*ed up my mental and physical health and took a long, long time to recover from. And my family suffered when I suffered too. That's when I learned the hard, hard lesson that I need to tend to myself fiercely, and carve out time for my own restoration. Otherwise I would be a hollowed out, angry, anxious banshee. Women and mothers are the energetic core of our families. When we get wonky, our partners and children get even wonkier, and the whole thing becomes a festival of disgruntled pelicans. The only way we can do our important work right now is by taking time for ourselves and filling our well. Putting our oxygen mask on first so we can continue leading ourselves and our families with heart. That's what Soul Care for Uncertain Times is for. Four weekly mini-retreats crafted to provide you with deep nourishment and restoration. So you can continue moving through this chaos with purpose and calm. If you're feeling called, you can enrol now (and grab the early bird discount) here: >> https://www.leoniedawson.com/soul We're here for you, if you need it. Love, Leonie (and Deb) P.S. I want you to know - if you are struggling right now. You are NOT alone. We are in this together. We will make it through. We are made of stardust, and our ancestors are wishing us well.
