ABOUT
Life moves in rhythms and cycles;
Contempo is about recognising our own personal season, as time for play or a time for pause.
The rapid tempo of the ‘Hustle and Grind’ culture has instilled an expectation of constant output, from ourselves and of others. The tradition of slowing down with seasonal weather patterns of Autumn and Winter has dissolved. Modern day technology enables this, however our physical beings are not designed that way.
Slowing down and paying attention is as important as the exuberant output.
Allowing space for ‘Wintering’ cultivates clarity and replenishes our well for greater expansion. They exist together.
The practices and rituals of Contempo aim to integrate the two. The channels for now are recipes, movement practices and subtle prompts to invite luxurious moments that gently rebel against the hustle culture.
A breath between the beats.
These are practices I have cultivated over 15 years of working in hospitality. They continue to shape and refine as my career evolves.
This is a sharing platform that aims to be of service in tuning into your own inner compass; and navigating your output from there.
Embracing contradictions.
Effort and Ease,
Playful pause,
Curious intention.
