Restoration

For your consideration……

The transitions from seasons can by busy. Certainly as we transition from summer to fall and children start back to school, schedules change whether you have children or not. There is a firmness….more business like…..attitude about fall than there is about spring. We only have to watch the squirrels to see how true that is.

Today we are being asked to take the weekend and “restore” our spirit. We are being asked to stop and shift the focus off of doing for others and doing for ourselves.

We are being asked to stop, breathe, relax and pamper ourselves on all levels…..body, mind and spirit. We are asked to remember that “we” are the most important person in our lives.

That may sound selfish. But as we go so goes what we have to offer everyone else we encounter. When we invest in being out best self, the world wins.

You are not alone. Your Guidance is with you 24/7 waiting and HOPEing we will ask for help. Take the weekend and invest in you. You have a choice. You always have a choice.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take……

-Meditate/pray…there is no better way to get in touch with your Guidance.

-Drink lots of water.

-If coffee, a glass of wine, hot chocolate etc, feels comforting to you, drink them. Relax…pamper yourself.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Go for a walk or go exercise or go stretch etc. Do what feels right?

-Grab a book or journal and chill in your favorite chair.

-Go somewhere and be pampered.

-Cut loose with a friend.

What made me smile yesterday…….

-I survived 16 1st graders. Yikes.

-Bad Bob took Bruce to get a pedicure. The retell of that experience is hysterical.

-Good news from Shannon.

-Alex is off to Seattle to have fun with an old grade school friend.

-Sweats and coffee as we chilled in for the night.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
