On pressing pause

This year has been, at the very least, one of change.

A bit change that I have seen coming up has been one that has affected the way we pace ourselves, especially when it comes to the way we work.

This month we are looking at different ways to press pause and recharge (whilst still satisfying your need for wanderlust with 8 gorgeous accounts on the Gram).

Our cover star Jonelle Lewis left me with some powerful words of wisdom that reminded me why, as creatives, we need to be serious about the idea of taking time off:

“To be productive you don’t always have to be producing.”

In this issue, we wanted to provide you with the inspiration needed to indulge in some time for yourself. May that be a staycation, a home retreat, or simply putting your emails on “out of office” for a long weekend.

We talk about the magic of solo travelling, how to bring the world to your table with delicious recipes and great ways to enjoy some me-time.

As a society, we can often fall into the trap of wanting to be 'always on', especially as the online world is renowned to be a 24/7 window into our life.

Have you ever asked yourself "what would happen if I stopped? What would I discover by taking a step back and listen to what my intuition has to say?"

We answer this question any more in this month's issue of the magazine.

I encourage you to see pressing pause as a way to get clear on how you want to end this crazy year that is 2020. What have you achieved? What have you learned? How can you make more space for stillness?

Onwards and upwards...
