Issue #68 | My Mum's Addictive Granola (help me), New Scanlan Theodore Jeans, Re-watching my fave TV show (new season is coming!), and a quote to help you slow down.
And, I'm heading to Melbourne tomorrow!
It's been a busy ol' time since last week!
I had so much fun commentating the Netball last Saturday. It was my first time in the ‘expert’ chair instead of sideline and I loved every second of it.
A weird little BTS for you - I wake up feeling hungover after every game. Headaches and tiredness are the main symptoms.
I think it's a combination of dehydration - we can't hydrate much because there's no time for a bathroom break while the game is on,
plus the adrenaline of live TV is REAL! I often get the shakes once we've finished. It's why I have to keep a bag of lollies on me at all times (that's what Bianca is hiding above) - the sugar really helps! But then the mix of adrenaline and sugar makes it tough to sleep afterwards.
I had the same problem when I played. Although, I'd probably consumed a coupla sneaky drinks as well ;)
Let's get into Issue #68 of The List, and today I'm sharing:
A quote about slowing down
A series I'm rewatching in anticipation of the next season dropping soon!
What I got for my birthday from Scanlan Theodore (thanks Mum!)
And the most addictive Granola (I can't keep it in the house!!)
Have the best Friday :)
“Slow down, you're doing fine"
Do you ever notice how fast you're moving? Whether it's physically - the speed at which you walk, the rate at which you talk, or constantly feeling in a rush.
Or perhaps your mind is always racing? Anticipating the next thing… And the next thing… And the next thing…
This quote serves as a reminder to slow down. You're enough as you are. There is enough time for everything. And It's all going to be ok.
My desired way of feeling is calm. I can even visualise exactly what it looks like - and it's the exact opposite of rushing.
When I'm calm I move slowly and with intention. I feel as though I have enough time, and I have a quiet confidence that everything will work out. I don't succumb to insecurities or anxieties.
Instead of waiting feel calm in order to move that way, I am trying to move slowly first. I believe if I move calmly, I will feel calm. Kind of reverse engineering it, you know?
I felt like someone else might need to hear this quote today. If that's you - print it out and pop it somewhere you can see it daily. It could even make a nice phone wallpaper.
And remember…slow down, you're doing fine :)
