Life Interrupted - The Power Within the Pause

Life Interruptions

Life is full of interruptions.  Some interruptions happen to us - a job loss, sudden health setback, family care - while others we create – a career pivot, relationship change, or relocation to a new city. 

When you are faced with a life-altering event or situation, how do you handle the change in the rhythm of your life; the pause that presents itself within the interruption?

Will you sink deep into the catabolic energy that often comes when challenges and difficult situations and circumstances push their way into your otherwise peaceful existence?

Or, will you accept the change and allow it to simply unfold, embracing the opportunity to reflect, reassess, reexamine how you move forward with the challenge or change you now face while honoring your values and making choices that enable you to flow through and beyond the interruption in a way that has the power to transform your life?

When you find yourself at the threshold of a life pause, one of the most empowering things you can do is to listen, really listen, to your inner knowing – that voice in your head, feeling in your heart and instinct in your gut – allowing you to hear, feel and acknowledge its messages within.

How many times in this busy, fast-paced, moment-to-moment world have you pushed down, muffled, or even dismissed the messages your knowing is quietly whispering to you?

What would be different in your life if you embraced life interruptions and deliberate pauses versus resisting their sometimes uncomfortable, awkward, uneasy presence?

When your next life interruption occurs, and it will, how will you tap the power within the pause and use that unplanned (or planned) event, circumstance, situation to give way to your what’s next defining moment?
