Embracing Energy Ebb and Flow - with Karen Skidmore
Manage episode 450692142 series 2761936
Lucinda is joined by Karen Skidmore, a business growth strategist and embodied business mentor, to discuss the importance of embracing our natural energy cycles for enhanced productivity.
Karen shares her personal journey through burnout and the transformative practices she adopted, such as sound healing and embodiment, to reconnect with her body and intuition.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Recognise that productivity is not solely about time management; it's about managing energy. Understanding and aligning with natural energy cycles, such as circadian rhythms and seasonal changes, can enhance productivity and well-being.
Slowing down can lead to greater success. Taking time to reflect and connect with oneself can help individuals make better decisions and avoid burnout, ultimately leading to improved performance.
Be aware of physical and emotional signs of stress and burnout, such as chronic fatigue, digestive issues, and emotional disconnection. Acknowledging these signs early can prevent more severe health problems.
Explore various holistic practices, such as sound healing, embodiment movement, and energy tracking, to reconnect with your body and reduce stress. These practices can help individuals find balance and improve their overall health.
BEST MOMENTS
"Slowing down absolutely does speed our success up. It’s about recognising that the way we work can negatively impact us."
"We often accept burnout as a rite of passage, ignoring the red flags our bodies are telling us."
"It feels like understanding yourself is a key part of productivity, not just time management."
"When we start to harness our mother nature seasons, we recognise there are different energies for different tasks."
"Being kind to ourselves improves our health. We cannot keep up with the productivity expectations placed upon us."
