With this episode, the Passions & Paychecks series comes to a close; and whew, y’all… this episode…. In the live class, the comments in the chat were coming in fast and furious - it is VERY clear that we are missing the transitions between home and work, that our boundaries have vanished, and that for most of us, we have no idea what “enough” feels like when it comes to work.
All month, we’ve been talking through our work lives as a function of relating - of being in relationship with ourselves, with our co-workers, and with our organizations. As we look at these relationships through the lens of mindfulness, it becomes clear that The meeting point of passion and paychecks is the sense of enoughness within ourselves.
Without the belief that we are enough and do enough, how can we possibly allow any wiggle room to be anything less than perfect, to occasionally drop the ball, or simply be average without over-achieving?
The work of enoughness is the work of compassion. In today’s practice, we will work with some key phrases that set the intention for believing in our own inherent worth:
As a child of the universe, I am already enough.
I belong to myself.
I know when I have done enough.
I trust myself.
As we meditate together in today’s episode, let yourself ponder - What is your relationship to space? To grace? To enoughness? How does this impact the way you show up and relate to yourself, to your work, and to others at work?
