To rest this time
After a week of straight content creation for our June-July issue, we finally wrapped it up this evening!
Who knew we could pull this through? It took me two sleepless nights just to write three full-length features and another two spent in the office for layout and editing purposes. We finished everything in just a week. I still couldn’t believe it. But right now, I’m tired.
Closing a magazine is so tiring, but the fulfillment comes after, and it's more rewarding than anything I could possess in this world. I just wish I would never run out of my passion for it.
I remember this specific moment, just when I was about to give up on the workload, I did some card reading. Just to realign myself. And true enough, the universe will supply you with answers you need. After I tuned in to myself, I got the Pleiadian card. In my oracle deck, the card means that if you’re doubting something about yourself, it is your sign to keep doing it. It was at that moment that I realized that no, I didn’t feel like giving up on writing, or giving up on myself, I was just plain tired.
After the most stressful magazine issue of my life to date, I’m finally taking this time to rest and nourish.
These photos were taken last Saturday, our last OT until midnight. I did some stretching right outside our office because I couldn’t be seated for far too long without moving, so I did my favorite Asana—Bird of Paradise or Svargda Dvijasana.
And since it was a Saturday, I wore this intention pants from Alo Yoga paired with a plain maroon top from Uniqlo and sandals from Nike.
What have you been up to lately? I hope you’re also taking the time to rest, whichever phase you are in right now.
