Let's talk about "moving in before the official wedding". Hello sisters, "I'm moving in!"... there are definitely mixed emotions behind this blog title and its totally ok right? Lots of excitement gearing up to be moving in with my fiancé in a few days and at the same time a whole lot of reality settling in and nervousness going on. At least within me; I feel this is going to be one of the biggest transformations in my life that will need to be adapted to and I'll need to prepare a well-structured practice to make it the smoothest transition ever. Many of my friends have waited until after the wedding ceremony to move in, others moved the same night they were proposed to, and then others have been living years together before the marriage. I'm very excited but at the same time I know its going to take getting used to and adaptation to this new lifestyle as ONE under ONE ROOF. As an independent girl, who has lived on my own, taken care of myself, run my business, make my own decisions... its going to be interesting to create a new space we call "ours". Now, I won't lie.. my apt has practically been Tommaso's home away from his home a few blocks away, but this new "official" move and the removal of my belongings from my current apt and forever taking them somewhere else is giving me butterflies and anxiety at the same time. Anyone had similar symptoms (or, is having similar symptoms)? So, I'm here planning to move out of my apartment after our wedding in July to not have the burden and stress of moving before the actual wedding. Well, life happens and I decided to move in sooner than my anticipated date. It shouldn't be that big of a stress right? I just need to pack up some boxes of clothes, prep a few items of furniture going to his place, pass on the key to my dad and officially say goodbye to my solo apartment living. #everythingwillbeok The 5 practices I will commit to during this transition: 1. Enjoy the moment! 2. Organize the process! 3. Create an area in the new apartment for stretching! 4. Write in my daily journal! 5. Take time to meditate routinely! What have you done that can help us ladies in transition for a seamless "move-in" ? Please add your comments as this blog isn't intended to be about me; yet my experiences and others can be of great value to all of us. Ciao Bella! |
