☕ Today’s Affirmation: 

“I honor my pace and trust my path.”

💬 A Little Thought from Me:

It’s hard, isn’t it? Watching other people sprint toward things you’ve been walking toward for what feels like forever.
It’s even harder when it feels like you’re stuck in place while everyone else seems to be moving forward. But here’s the truth: forward isn’t always fast. And fast doesn’t always mean aligned.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is move slowly—intentionally, mindfully—because you’re building something that lasts.

Your pace isn’t wrong. It’s your rhythm. It’s your wisdom. It’s your protection.

🖋️Journal Prompt: 

“Where in my life am I rushing? What would it look like to slow down?”

Maybe it’s in how you talk to yourself. Maybe it’s in a decision you’re trying to force. Maybe it’s in your healing.
What happens if you just… take a breath instead?

☕ Tea Pairing: 

Today’s tea is Lavender Earl Grey. It’s floral, steady, and quietly confident. Like a friend who doesn’t have to raise their voice to be heard.

Try this today:

• Say the affirmation while sipping your morning tea or coffee
• Set a timer for 5-10 minutes and write your response to the journal prompt
• If you’re feeling brave, share your response in the comments or DM me – I’d love to hear what came up for you.
