Stretch Out of Your Comfort Zone into Your Joy Zone

When we feel constricted and tight in our bodies the solution is stretching. Slowly, carefully and easily we can stretch into a more fluid and flexible body. This is also true for our mental, emotional selves. Often life can feel stagnant or constricted in some way and what is required is stretching on our part. Moving out of our comfort zones is how we can stretch beyond what we know. This may include taking a class or doing something unfamiliar or even “out of character”. These choices are what stretch us into new and wonderful experiences. All of a sudden, our lives no longer feel so monotonous. Go ahead really stretch yourself today.

Create a list of items that would stretch you out of your comfort zone.

For example:

1. Talk a watercolor class

2. Call a friend I haven’t talked to in years

3. Take an African dancing class

4. Plan a trip to somewhere new

5. Try a new recipe and invite over people who have never met before

6. Volunteer at a shelter

What you write on your list will be unique to you. Take a moment to get Centered, Clear and Connected by meditating. It is here you can access your spirit where you will find exactly what items are perfect for you.

Notice how you feel more joy and freedom in your life. Keep it up and you will create a life well-lived.
