I really try to live a balanced life. And I want to believe that I do, most of the time! I'm getting better at doing things in my own pace and with a more relaxed feeling, at making time for myself by walking out in nature to calm down my body and mind.
But sometimes, balance just goes out the window. And the sweet state of excitement takes over ^^
As I told you in my last post, I'm working on a new collection of artworks, and I can't think about anything else!
And I hardly do anything else ^^ There are already too many dishes unwashed in the kitchen, the floor could use sweeping as well. I forget to have breakfast, and drink too much coffee instead, and haven't done my breathing practices in days.
But I want to enjoy that current phase.
When I'm so super excited about a new project, it usually means, that it's completely the right thing to do, that it's a good thing to put my energy in.
So I allow myself being terrible at self-care and household activities for a while, to enjoy the state of over-excitement for something, that I love and believe in.
And I know the balance and calmness will come back to me as soon as I get to a point, where the project is finished enough, and I can lean back again.
In my case it's the third painting of the collection, that I want to finish, before I release it on OpenSea. There will be more paintings in that collection in the future, but I want to have three of them finished at the time of release.
So I'm painting the whole day, losing myself in the creative flow, and allow myself to not think about the things that I think I should be doing.
Because right now, everything else must wait.
I have some awesome art to make!
