coming back...
It has been far too long since I last wrote here. So much has happened, life has been a whirlwind, and I got caught up in the glorification of "busy". I've felt lost and unsure of my direction. I wondered if I was on the right path, or if I should have turned off miles ago! Sound familiar? In my head, I knew all of the things that I "should" do, but somehow, I just felt stuck. Thankfully, I reached a point on the calendar where life slowed down. I decided to take some time out. I started listening to my body. I slept in, I ate less, I moved more slowly and gently. I still took care of my family and the home, but I didn't feel as rushed. I started breathing more deeply and mostly through my nose. Just being aware of the breath is such a great way to calm the body and mind...and spirit. I now celebrate the glorification of "calm"! I am feeling more peaceful, and with that, I'm also feeling lighter and more joyful. What a beaut
