So it turns out you do start forgetting your own age once you push thirty. Despite that, thirty four has been pretty good to me so far.

It’s been a year since I moved to the comox valley - and almost as long since I posted on here! I look back on the intentions I was calling in at the end of 2022: to live by the water, to have more female friendships, more love, simplicity, a fun + flexible routine - and I find myself exactly where I wanted to be. At that time I was in Mexico after being laid off, life coaching and having a good time, planning out my next move and spending a lot of time thinking about moving to Vancouver or Vancouver island. By the end of January I had a job and a week later I was on the island. This past year has been a practice to learn how to live in and enjoy just being here before racing off to the next thing. We can be so quick to jump from one big goal to the next that we don’t take time to slow down and actually sit in it and appreciate it for a while. So what have I been doing since I moved here? I’ve been playing with rescue cats and kittens every weekend I’ve been racing to the ocean with binoculars to try and see the whales when someone mentions they’re nearby I’ve been waking up, pouring a coffee and walking in a cozy hoodie to the shore literally across the street I’ve been checking out waterfalls, watching sunsets from my kayak, eating brunches, writing in cafes, walking through forests of old trees, taking ocean dips even in winter, making friends, trying out pottery, dancing, reading on beaches, going to shows, and generally just learning to be present and slow down long enough for me to catch up with myself. I’m thinking that this year is going to look much the same and I’m pretty okay with that 🌊

Everyone needs alone time - not just your introvert friends! I know not all of us LIKE spending time alone - but all of us NEED some regular alone time. And check out all the epic perks of spending time alone. Who doesn’t want to know themselves and trust themselves more? Who doesn’t want to feel centered and grounded? I’d argue that prioritizing time alone is one of the key contributors to living a life that feels good - without it, we lose access to this sacred, deeper connection to ourselves. And when we lose that connection, we lose our way. My hope is that this can be a space where you can learn how to and be inspired to spend more quality time with you, yourself and you. Because after all, you shouldn’t be enjoying yourself ONLY when you’re with other people. Enjoying the time you spend alone means MORE happiness in life, MORE contentedness, MORE peace. ➡️If you’re someone struggling to enjoy spending time alone, scroll on down to my post from March 13th to find 14 ways to spend quality time with yourself. ➡️If you know your relationship with yourself has taken a hit and you want to work with a life coach to get it back and build a relationship with yourself that’s better than ever before, you’re in the right place. Send me a dm at @michellebelair_ to find out more!

Happiness isn’t something to be reached or achieved - it’s found in the present moment. Focusing too much on the future or too much on the past takes away from the contentment of the present. If you struggle to find joy in the day to day, if you struggle to find peace with where you’re at in life and you WANT to start experiencing more of that, the life by design blueprint (my 90 day coaching program) will guide you through everything you need to make it happen for yourself. There is ONE spot open for private coaching inside the LBD Blueprint, starting in April. Dm me @michellebelair_ if you have questions or check out the link in my bio to skip right to signing up!
