Why Alone Time is Healing

I love being alone.

To move at my own pace, reset quietly in nature and be ultra attentive to my own needs— solo time is one of the greatest pleasures in my life.

I feel recalibrated, like I’ve returned to my home frequency. And I need it often.

I’ve become less and less apologetic about my desire to rest in my own energy. I used to feel bad for it. I hated bailing on commitments or saying no to things that would please others.

But now I know that prioritizing this need creates an abundance of energy for myself and for others. It all sounds so obvious and redundant in this “self care” Instagram culture but actually doing it (in small ways and in this 4 day retreat) with a true commitment to satisfying those energetic needs, hits different.

What I wasn’t expecting from this off-the-grid experience was that after about 3 days of nothing BUT me, the deeper feelings started swirling up more than they ever have. And no it didn’t feel good. It didn’t feel like a cleanse. It was sloppy and scary and painful. So I sobbed it out by the river and let the current take it down. To be recycled with the rest of the gunk leftover from the floods and spun into something new ✨.

So I love alone time. And sometimes it brings me what I need, not what I want. But no matter how it comes… I am left feeling a little bit lighter than before.

Thanks for the stay @campcaitlin will be coming back for some more healing in that sweet hippie town soon enough 💕
