Everything in the world has changed. How do we keep our families happy and healthy and keep putting one foot in front of the other? Well, we just do.

We all need to be realistic and vigilant and re-frame the situation. We need to be positive for our kids and ourselves and know that ... this too shall pass. The sooner we all take action and stay safe with our families, the sooner we can go back to many freedoms.

So in the meantime, what do we do?

Thinking time is such a simple concept although most don't do it often. I know I don't do it enough. The idea of taking some time out for myself makes my shoulders drop and my mind crave how I can make it happen with the chaos of life. Thinking time is blocking out time in your diary on a regular basis, (daily, 3x a week, weekly, whatever suits you) unplugging from devices and sitting with yourself. Really sitting and doing nothing. Just being. Imagine if this became your normal?

I first heard Sarah Blondin on her podcast called 'Live Awake'. Her voice is calm, relaxed and almost meditative. I'm sharing her with you as she has so much to say that we all need to listen to. We all need to take 5, put our feet up and give ourselves a break and what better way then for Sarah to share her open letter to the women of this world. Go on and give yourself that one thing you can control, time, and tap into your inner strength that is there. Then watch the magic unfold.
