Emotional wellness spreads through each and every one of us making the decision to tune in with ourselves. I'm so grateful that you're here on this journey of healing, surrendering, and growth. 🤎
Let’s explore the concept of Spoon Theory, a framework often used to understand energy levels and limitations, especially in relation to chronic illness. But Spoon Theory can be helpful for everyone, as it sheds light on how our energy boundaries shift based on our moods, circumstances, and overall mental load.
By tuning into these daily changes, we can set boundaries that better honour our energy and support our emotional wellness. Knowing our “spoon” count can help us communicate needs and limits within relationships.
When we acknowledge our changing energy levels, we’re able to bring empathy and understanding into our interactions, knowing that each day holds different capacities.
