The only way to do this is to start (re-)connecting to yourself again. Only when we take time to be with ourselves, without distractions, can we feel that inner peace and strength again. Which will help you to choose a life that you want.
It is so easy to get caught in all things that need to be done. It might even feel easier to just do the things that need to be done. To take care of others instead of taking time to stop and take care of yourself. But this will leave you very unsatisfied and empty in the end.
You may be thinking of a thousand reasons why you shouldn’t be doing this right now. But you deserve this! And we are 100% sure that everyone and everything will benefit from you choosing you.
“
Fleur is such a sweet teacher and the Yoga Nidra meditation gave me a very deep relaxation that I had not experienced before. It continued to work in the days that followed. I took many good intentions with me from this retreat. Everything was above expectations, very relaxing and inspiring. All in all, a retreat full of self-care
that I wish everyone!”

Just as most tangible forms create the world, our bones and muscles do so in our bodies. EARTH carries all the other elements and thus forms the basis.
It is the basis of our life: structure, solidity, safety, rest, good nutrition and so the basis of self-care.

AIR literally connects our inner and outer worlds. Air moves, just like our breath, and is therefore logically linked to our nervous system. This is where our resilience can be found. AIR is also about the movement of our subtler layers such as emotions and thoughts.
