Embracing Our Inner Big Kid
In the hustle and bustle of adult life, it's easy to lose touch with the sense of wonder and delight that once defined our childhood experiences. However, reconnecting with our inner child can be a transformative journey, one that infuses our days with boundless energy, creativity, and joy.
Approach each day with the wide-eyed wonder of a child encountering the world for the first time. Allow yourself to be curious about everything – from the mundane to the extraordinary. Ask questions, seek answers, and embrace the joy of discovery.
Set aside time for unstructured play and exploration. Whether it's doodling in a sketchbook, building sandcastles at the beach, or simply taking a leisurely stroll through nature, give yourself permission to indulge in activities purely for the sake of enjoyment.
Engage in creative pursuits that ignite your imagination and stir your soul. Whether it's painting, writing, crafting, or dancing, let your creativity flow freely, unfettered by self-doubt or criticism. Remember, there are no mistakes in art – only opportunities for self-expression.
Break free from the rigidity of routine and embrace spontaneity whenever possible. Say yes to unexpected adventures, impromptu outings, and playful escapades. Allow yourself to be swept up in the magic of the moment, relinquishing control in favor of serendipitous experiences.
Cultivate a sense of wonder and awe in your daily life. Take time to marvel at the beauty of the world around you – the intricate patterns of a snowflake, the mesmerizing dance of a flickering flame, the soothing rhythm of crashing waves. Find beauty in the ordinary and let it fill you with gratitude.
Laughter truly is the best medicine, so don't be afraid to let loose and giggle like a child. Seek out opportunities for humor and levity, surround yourself with people who uplift your spirits, and don't take life too seriously. Remember, a hearty laugh can brighten even the darkest of days.
Share your playful spirit with those around you and bask in the joy of shared experiences. Organize game nights with friends, join a sports team, or volunteer with children – anything that allows you to connect with others in a lighthearted and joyful manner.
By embracing our inner big kid, we not only infuse our days with laughter and delight but also cultivate a deeper sense of fulfillment and connection. So let go of inhibitions, embrace the spirit of play, and watch as your life transforms into a vibrant tapestry of happiness and wonder.
A Step by Step Guide
Feeling Lighter Through a Break from Mistakes
You will need:
• 5 minutes or more
• A safe space where you will be undisturbed
• An open mind and an open heart
1. We all know it can feel like a big job… being an adult. And there are many pressures and responsibilities that can’t just be ‘turned off’. But… for everything you can turn off right now (like your cell phone) turn off whatever you can.
2. Our responsibilities often feel so heavy and drain us of more energy than we want, because of how we relate to them mentally and emotionally. They feel heavy because we feel heavy about the negative consequences of not being a perfect, mistake-free adult. But what if we believed and truly felt that everything was going to be ok… and we knew that if we make any kind of mistake we’ll be forgiven completely… No exceptions? Let’s find out.
3. We’re going to give ourselves permission to forgive ourselves for every single ‘Adult’ mistake we’ve ever made. Any time we let someone down. Any time we were late or didn’t show up. Any time we messed up. For the next few minutes, just be aware of any Big Adult Mistake – and as soon as a mistake pops into your mind tell yourself:
“I forgive you. You’re not a perfect robot. You’re a human being that’s allowed to make mistakes. I forgive you and I love you.”
4. It can be a skill to really feel and allow this forgiveness to truly let ourselves off the hook to really give ourselves a break… but it’s a really powerful skill to cultivate, and doing this practice whenever we make mistakes can change our life in profound ways.
5. Rather than turning our mistakes into more weight on our backs… we use forgiveness to keep ourselves feeling light, innocent and energized!
