I Took Some Time Off

Hey loves,

Apologies I’ve been quiet the last few days.

Truth is… I took some time off. No laptop. No socials. Just me, a blank week in my calendar, and the whisper: breathe.

If you’re anything like me with a million-and-one projects spinning at once taking a proper pause can feel fcking impossible.

I’m not good at “doing nothing.” I’m working on that.

But last week, I let myself move slower. Some days it looked like coffee and a flaky almond croissant. Other days, it was just me and the ocean. No purpose. No productivity. Just presence.

This year’s been full-on. Beautiful. Chaotic. Expansive. But fck, slowing down is a muscle I’m still building.

So forgive the silence. I was in stillness. And honestly? I needed it.

Now I want to ask you something:

🌀 When was the last time you truly switched off? Like, actually logged out. Went into nature. Did something for no reason other than… you wanted to.

Can you put that in your diary? Not next month. This Month.

Not because you earned it. But because you deserve to feel good. No permission slip needed.

💫 OFH starts with the micro-moments.

Come back to yourself. You’re allowed.

With love, always, Mary-Anne x
