You Can Do Anything, but You Can’t Do Everything
Listen now
Description
A lot has occurred for me in 2023 - as I think is true for every year, but perhaps this time around it is a little more visible and this is probably why I received the beautiful question of the lessons I’ve learned this past year. So, I am using the reflective energy of the outer and inner season of Winter I’m currently finding myself in and sharing with you, in this episode, the three lessons I have learned over the course of 2023. Tune in to hear more from me on the three lessons I’ve learned this past year: I can do anything, but I can’t do everything. As a multi-passionate manifesting generator with ADHD, I get lit up and motivated by so many new ideas. But how do you navigate that with limited capacity, in a society that glorifies production? A few of my coping strategies are compartmentalizing, sleeping on new ideas, and exploring how I can feel accomplished and satiated by what I do day in day out whilst also taking care of myself.The vision takes time. More time than you think! It’s not for nothing I teach about how slowness can be the antidote to our suffering. I have so much compassion for the me who gets uncomfortable in the liminal, especially around our renovation. I ask myself: ‘Can I make this messy middle feel easeful in some way?’, which is where ritual comes in.Get slow and quiet so I can get clear on my highest priorities. Last year I had the deep realisation that my biggest priority wasn’t my business, or the farm or the renovation. It was my first home: my body, and my health. Even though it was really hard, I learned how to choose to make it my focus to take care of my body on a weekly and daily basis.Resources + Links My book, Root and Ritual: Timeless Ways to Connect to Land, Lineage, Community, and the SelfConnect with me on Instagram @beccapiastrelliTimestamps [00:00] Introducing the question of what lessons I’ve learned over the past year [5:00] How a deer carcass is showing me the real deal of somatic embodiment of the wild experience and the winter medicine in that [07:30] The analogy of the ascending spiral and revisiting inner work when I’m well resourced [08:30] Lesson 1: I can do anything, but I can't do everything [11:00] I have a much more limited capacity since I had my child and the pandemic [18:58] Lesson 2: The big vision takes time [24:00] How nature is teaching me to be patient with our renovation [25:41] Lesson 3:  Get slow and quiet so I can get clear on my highest priorities [30:15] The impact of celebrating my health wins
