When I retired a few years ago, I still felt the need to constantly be doing something. I felt guilty when I just allowed myself to just be and no do. It took me almost 3 years to just allow myself to be with no guilt and no second thoughts....just being in the moment and only doing as I pleased.

Hello lovely, thanks for taking the time to read and share your experience. It's incredible how conditioned many of us become to doing, when really our nervous system is programmed to have rhythm, ebb and flow! I'm happy you finally arrived at the place where pausing is pleasurable and being is more natural to you 💗
