      *BIG HUGS* I am sending you so much love and joy and PEACE today. I am right there with you. And it's okay to cry. It's okay to throw a temper tantrum. Don't judge your feelings. This world is mad. It literally runs off of our exhaustion. Especially now, folks are so fatigued. There's almost no room to be tired here. 💛😢

    I’ve been exhausted for about 10 years now. But idk how I’m supposed to rest when I have to constantly work to keep a roof over my head..

  • @jaydawilliams5293

    You are saving me rn lol ..your outlook on life for our black community is vital and very much appreciated. It’s definitely a mindset. For some, this lifestyle is created just by watching others hustle but really to some degree are suffering to make a dollar. Our lives are definitely much more valuable than what’s in our bank account. Majority of the women in my life have worked themselves literally to death 😭🥺😩..I am affirming “MS” will not develop in me 😌✨

    • @AleciaRenece
      @AleciaRenece  Před 2 lety +4

      I'm sending you SO much love right now. And I am Affirming with you. MS will NOT develop in you. 💛💛💛 And I completely understand what you mean. I've seen it too. My overworked family and friends and how burned out and I'll they become from being so tired for so long. It stops here. My hope is more of us are able to stop hustling and grinding and that we can actually REST and rest WELL. Much love and joy to you, Sis! 💛💛💛

    I had to take a sabbatical at Myrtle Beach last August 2021. I needed some much needed rest, meditation and prayer. I have been under stress from work, stress in my strained marriage, stress from family responsibilities. My father is dealing with stage 4 colon cancer. Thanks for sharing.

    • @AleciaRenece
      @AleciaRenece  Před 2 lety +1

      Whoa. That is a lot. First, I am so sorry to hear about your Father. I'm praying for his healing and support for HIS support system. I am so glad that you took time to rest and retreat. As a care giver, you HAVE to make sure you're taking care of yourself. *BIG HUGS* I'm sending you so much love, rest, peace and presence.

    Terrific & once again, timely. Rest is restorative, & I'm glad many of us are starting to embrace more 🛌. Even our Heavenly Father took one day off to rest after creating the world. Thank you for the message👏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾.

    This video just appeared when I needed to see it! I was just thinking to myself that I am absolutely exhausted! There are no trophies for exhaustion but we live in a society that implies you must be busy every minute of the day 😢

    I needed this today. I am still exhausted, even though I quit my last job 3 months ago due to an injury. If not for being injured, I would have still been in the same cycle of hustling, stress, and strain for nothing. Listening to you, I legit feel like I have forgotten how to play and "do things for the fun of it" as you said. Message received. I've written my permission slip to rest and reinvent myself on my own timeline! Thank you. 💛

    I've been trying to make sense of my mental/creative burnout and this video is spot on. I've never thought about this as an injury that needs to heal.
    I would love to see a video with tips on how to completely unplug as creative, because even with a burnt-out, the wheels are still turning.

    • @AleciaRenece
      @AleciaRenece  Před 2 lety +2

      *BIG HUGS* I completely understand that. Sometimes even when you're burned out, journaling the things that come up for you is a good idea. All of the ideas can go into a notebook, but don't do them. Not yet anyway. And I gotchu! More is coming on this topic. IT is SO hard to turn off.
