Finding Order Amidst Chaos

Lately I have been feeling like the chaos in the world is spilling over into my home life…

It is hard to watch the news daily and not feel strong emotions about what is happening in Ukraine. Adding to that the emotions of other challenges we may be facing in our daily life, it can feel overwhelming and chaotic.

The last few days I was beating myself up a little, that I had no drive, no motivation—my creative juices weren’t flowing! Making dinner for two was about the only thing I could manage! But then, (after talking to a wonderful friend who reminded me that its ok to sometimes do nothing), I reminded myself that this is part of the natural ebb and flow of life. That in order for there to be “order”, there must also at times be chaos. Both have to exist in order to create balance. We can’t control everything in our lives, so we have to accept and manage, and realize that chaos, is part of the “natural order” of things…

I gave some thought to what started to pull me out of this state:

· Taking a nap! Several in fact over the weekend!

· Gratitude

· Sending love out to the world

· Doing an abundance meditation (Bob Proctor has a great one you can find on You-Tube)

· Focus on one task at a time, instead of multi-tasking

· Thinking about ways that I make a difference

As an RDH, you give so much of your energy and effort daily as you try to make a difference in your client's oral and overall health, so it is important to be sure you give yourself the time you need to refill your cup.

“Order provides the stabilities that we crave, but chaos creates the opportunities for change that we need.”
