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. Too often, we ignore these signals until we reach a breaking point. Choosing to pause is not weakness. It’s wisdom. A major power move.  It’s you saying, “I hear myself, and I matter enough to listen.” ⏸️ Your Pause May Look Different from Everyone else's. For some, a pause may be ten minutes of deep breathing or sitting in silence. For others, it may mean unplugging for ten days, journaling, o...

The Way by Michelle Pitt


So many of us…
searching for “the way”
Listening to voices louder than our own
Taking steps in shoes not sized for our journey
Being pulled in directions
by hands that never knew our purpose

They say,
“This is the path,”
“Follow this rule,”
“Think like this,”
“Be like that,”
But none of it fits
And we wonder why we’re stumbling in circles

Let me tell you —
You gotta do what works for you

Because when you don’t…
Overwhelm becomes your roommate
Unworthiness whispers from the mirror
And fear?
Fear builds a home inside your doubt

But when you turn inward —
when you listen to that quiet light within
you remember:
You were never lost
You were just ignoring your guide

Your truth.
Your rhythm.
Your way.

So take that next step, not in mimicry,
but in alignment
Because real peace doesn’t come from outside voices —
It’s the sound of your soul
finally
being heard.

 

Scripture: Romans 12:2 (NIV)
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
→ This highlights tuning out external patterns to discover God’s specific will for you. 

Affirmation: I trust the process God has me in, even when I don’t understand it.

Let’s walk this path together and cultivate wellness in every area of our lives.
