Take a Breath - She Splendid With Kimberly Conrad

"You are worth finding.
 You are worth knowing.
 Worth Loving.
 You and all your one million layers."
 -Unknown.

Oh how I Love Peonies. They really are the most feminine of flowers.

I Love when they open slowly, showing off each layer for days before opening the next.

As I was relishing how their leisurely pace of  blossoming, (and because I often reference women to flowers) I was pondering the fact that we are often in such a hurry to get to the next level in personal growth, spirituality, relationships, business, fitness.....really in everything. What if we slowed down just a little bit, and basked for a time on each rung of whatever the current ladder is, and honored ourselves; enjoyed the sheer BEAUTY of the growth and accomplishment instead of immediately being obsessed with getting on to the next step?

 Part of loving yourself is allowing yourself the time to feel really, really good about where you are, and the better you feel where you are, the more ready you are to move forward. What do feel really good about right now?

 What have you not slowed down enough to acknowledge and feel good about? I invite you to take the time, and CELEBRATE!
