The Pause Power - Self-Awareness Matters

Image
  In life we are pulled in many directions — deadlines, expectations, responsibilities, and the constant hum of “keep going.” For many of us, it feels easier to push through than to step back. But the truth is this: pushing through without pause often causes more harm than good. 🌿 Self-Awareness Is the First Step Self-awareness is more than knowing what you feel — it’s paying attention to the whispers of your mind, body, and spirit. It’s noticing when your shoulders are heavy or tight, when your thoughts feel cluttered, and may even be racing, or when your spirit longs for quiet.

The Greatest Project by Michelle Pitt

I didn’t know
there was something in me
that needed to heal.
I was aware of everything
but me.

I’d mastered the art
of showing up for others,
while quietly disappearing
from myself.

Then came the shift—
a whisper in the silence,
a nudge from within.
I realized:
I needed me.

So I became
my own project,
my own priority,
my own sanctuary.

And oh,
what a journey it's been—
full of revelations,
unexpected grace,
and sacred becoming.

I’m learning
to see myself with new eyes,
to trust the sound
of my own soul speaking.

What I focus on
begins to bloom,
so I plant with intention,
and water with truth.

I reprogram my mind
not from fear,
but from love—
from the vision
of who I truly am.

This is the life I create:
rooted in healing,
growing in purpose,
whole in every way.
