9.20 Enjoy a Cozy Moment for Yourself · Just Enough Joy

Sarahn Sankofa: Hello, beautiful people. Today is September the 20th, and today's calendar challenge is enjoy a cozy moment for yourself. Yes, you deserve a little bit of time to just love on you, to cozy up, to wrap yourself up in a blanket, and to be still, to be present and grounded in your joy. The theme for this month is nourish yourself. So this is a time of restoration, gentleness, and self-tending. This is about feeding your body, mind, and spirit with what sustains you and saying no to what drains you. So today, find a little bit of time for yourself to cuddle up and cozy up with your joy. Sometimes life demands so much of us, and we have to use rest as an act of resistance. Yes, I said what I said. We have to use rest as an act of resistance. We've been made to believe that rest is the reward, that rest is the prize, that rest is the thing we must work to earn. But rest is our right, and rest. In its most natural state is what we naturally give ourselves, regardless of what else is going on, regardless of what we have yet to give or what we have yet to receive. Rest requires intentionality, and we must make space in our lives in this demanding society for it. So today, cozy up with yourself and remind yourself that rest is your birthright and so is joy. Just enough is more than enough, Saran says.
