Reflection is a funny word, in my opinion, because it has two conflicting definitions. One is the throwing back by a body or surface of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it. The second meaning is serious thought and consideration. To me this is ironic because when we reflect on something we really absorb the meaning of the lessons we’ve learned, the challenges that have molded us, and the ways we have grown.
Today is an episode of reflection. As I watched my nephew’s culmination from elementary school this morning, I held my five year old in my lap, who in just two days is having his own graduation from preschool. The past, present and future came together as I was thinking of… how the last three years have gone by so fast…how my five year old is so big yet so small right now….and how in just five short years we will be sitting in the same amphitheater watching him graduate to the next chapter.
If you are like me and get sentimental about these next chapters coming and going and want to soak up every day and every moment, not just the milestones, then you are going to love Slow Down Time!
It’s a guided group where we practice calming ourselves when we want to fast forward, practice pressing play, pressing pause and rewinding with intention. I’d love for you to join us! Think of it like a regret-prevention program for parents! It's starting soon, so send me a message to find out more!
In the meantime, if you're not already a buddy on Instagram, check me out @megs.malloy. I love conversations more than pontificating. Please send me a DM to suggest a future episode topic or ask me a question.
