Wow, what a summer we have had so far this year, weeks and weeks of glorious sunshine and at times (dare I say it) even a little too hot and muggy!
As you know, we close for 3 full weeks over the summer – no catch ups, nothing. Balance closes its doors completely. Every year I get asked if we could run some classes and every year I consider it and really think about that decision to completely close……….but every year I come to the same conclusion.
We all – teachers and clients alike – need time off. It is so good to have a total break from your usual routine to do something different, something new, spend more time with those you love, explore new places on our awesome planet, to spend more time just being and not rushing around doing.
Each and every one of us needs to do more of that.
Life is so very busy for most of us, especially with technology. We are always stimulated, we can always be contacted, it is so easy to check our emails and messages and that ‘ping’ can be hard to ignore.
So, isn’t it nice to get the time and space to remember that we are Human Beings not Human Doings?
It’s lovely to take the time to be in our space, to be in nature, to be with others and to be with just us. To take the time to admire the view, to talk to new people, to lift our eyes up and really look around.
We do have some fabulous new things happening at Balance in September and I am so excited to be hosting them, but right now I’m ready to start enjoying my Summer Love so that I, as well as you, come back re-energised, revitalised, and ready for whatever our next year brings.
I do love a bit of Summer Love!
