Before You Burn Out, Try Plugging In..

You Plug in Your Phone. When Will You Plug into You?

I used to think self-love was something you earn after you've ticked all the boxes.

Work done.
Family happy.
Tasks checked.
Then maybe… maybe… I could take a break. Maybe book a spa day. Maybe rest.

But here’s what I’ve learned (the hard way):
Self-love isn’t a luxury. It’s a daily charge.
Like how we plug in our phones — 100%, twice, even thrice a day.
We guard our devices from low battery.
But what about us?

Somewhere in the noise, I realized:
I was running on empty — performing, giving, showing up…
but not checking in.

And when I finally paused — not to fix, not to improve, but to feel — I met a version of me I had almost forgotten.
The one that breathes slower. Smiles softer. Hears whispers. Knows when enough is enough.

That’s the power of plugging in.
Of realignment.
Of choosing presence over performance.


🔌 A Little Practice That Helped Me Reconnect:

PLUG:

  • Pause (just 2 minutes of silence)

  • Listen (what’s bubbling beneath?)

  • Unplug from noise — phone, scrolling, expectations

  • Ground in one loving truth: You are allowed to just be.


📿 A Quote That Changed Me:

"Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes — including you."
— Anne Lamott


🌀 A Question That Keeps Me Honest:

If I gave myself even half the care I give my phone… would I still be exhausted?


💫 If this resonates…

You’re not alone. And you don’t have to walk this remembering alone either.
That’s why I created the Align & Thrive Movement with Geetika — for people like us who want to walk home to ourselves daily, not just during breakdowns.

Not for a better version of you.
But for the real one you’ve been missing.
