If you happen to comply with me on Instagram, @positivelyjessicaward, you’ll have seen my latest yogi and explorer adventures.

After the insanity of Christmas and 2017, I assumed it was time I took some well-deserved time-out. Life can generally change into suffocating and we are able to change into swamped down with work. Generally we are able to start to let the essential issues slip; self-care, self-motivation and internal gratitude. With out therapeutic ourselves and retaining ourselves mentally and bodily energised, how can we count on to achieve success and productive in our day-to-day lives?

I’m responsible of permitting my life to take over and I’m additionally responsible of the ‘workaholic’ title. Though I am keen on what I do, and I am keen on onerous, having some downtime is important for development. My life has improved dramatically since 2017 and I couldn’t be any extra grateful. I remind myself each day of how life has handled me; with kindness, generosity and love. We might expertise the unhealthy instances, however they all the time reveal the great instances.

Experiencing a retreat was one thing I wished to do for myself, an opportunity to be free and an opportunity to discover new practices in health and psychological wellbeing. I’m acquainted with yoga, sound remedy and numerous different therapeutic therapies, nonetheless, each expertise is all the time totally different.

However this retreat I attended in February, is the little push I wanted and I believe it did the job properly. Being a lover of meals, journey, yoga and health, I assumed a retreat could be the best rest methodology.

Generally, after we journey, we are able to rely a lot on the ‘vacation feeling’ that we neglect that internal happiness isn’t found elsewhere, it’s cultivated from inside. So with that in , I advised myself, that if I am going away and luxuriate in myself, that’s all that issues and I’ll must work on my motivation, myself.

Once I was contacted by Kaliyoga, I used to be very overwhelmed and really grateful. I couldn’t consider the chance and I couldn’t consider the timing! I did shed a number of completely satisfied tears after receiving the invite after which I quickly started to pack and prep.
