Being Real
🕑 Added 2023-05-31 00:32:59 +0000 UTCThis year has been an interesting year. I’m still negotiating a new country, Thailand. I’m continually in a place of discomfort & growth. As I parent a 10 year old. I’m continually in unknown waters of knowing the right things to do or say & realising how much I need to work on myself.
I have dealt with financial hardships like most & continue to do so. Sadly the retreat I was going to do is no longer possible. We have had to cancel and another project I was working on.
I also have been healing form a major injury. At the beginning of this year I turned my head & injured my neck. I lost my ability to handstand, press, chinstand & push up. It has taken me nearly 6 month to regain some of my skills that were once easy.
I honestly felt like I wanted to quit being a movement teacher. It has humbled me to the point of seeing how much our identities are wrapped up in our goals through our egos. I’m reminded again, happiness is not a destination but the willingness to evolve with gratitude & humbleness of knowing the only constant is change.
It is also teaching me that we need to remember confidence, success/motivation is built through the act of not being certain & showing up. We need to continue to put in effort to the outcomes we desire & adopt consistent actions/self discipline towards our goals to become the person we want. We choose to become the person we are by how we show up. Motivation is in fact momentum when we regulate our systems & we feel rewarded for the way we do something. What makes us worthy of our goals & receiving is the giving & doing we put towards ourselves, goals & life each day.
I share all this because being human is funny. On social media we all admire everyone or judge everyone. We all think it is easy for others compared to us. The truth is nobody has it easy. And all this I share & these stories make me who I am. But to insist on only these negative stories is to flatten my experience & to overlook the many other stories that formed me. The single story creates stereotypes, and the problem with stereotypes is not that they are untrue, but that they are incomplete. They make one story become the only story.
Cheers to being human and breaking, growing, struggling, sharing and remembering we are not alone. Thank you for all your support Rhy xo

Just a thought I've had a few times. Maybe let Ozzy Man use a few clips for comments.... Maybe the cross of viewers could increase subscriptions. "Spready to the Gods" is a common phrase. https://www.youtube.com/@ozzymanreviews/videos

They truly are equally part of it we just do not always see it. Thank you for your respect and seeing all facets of my human
I appreciate you sharing this. Life is hard, and the goods and bads are equally a part of our stories. As much as I would like to think of you in a particular view, I realize you have all these other parts of you. RESPECT...and onward.
