What is one thing special you are going to do for yourself this week? I recently went through a very stress filled time in my life and the one thing that got me through is doing something special for myself everyday. In addition, I had to let go of one thing that drained me. This practice taught me to really take better care of myself and I was amazed at how little time I needed to relax to feel rejeuvenated. Here are a few suggestions that helped me:
Take out time to really enjoy a good cup of tea or coffee. No multi tasking allowed!
Sprinkle a few drops of your favorite essential oil in your shower. You will feel like you are at a spa.
Listen to your favorite music or a book on cd in the car while driving.
Take a quick bath by candle light.
Light up your favorite candle and put on some relaxing music when you are cooking and cleaning up the kitchen.
All great ideas, mav! I’m going to do my Holy Yoga, candles lit, music on, and then meditative prayer. Hopefully at least 4 days this week, maybe more. I need to schedule a hair cut, funny how that always makes me feel better, and I’m considering getting my nails done!
Blessings,

I’m going to make an appointment for a mammogram. It’s been over a year and I like to keep up to date as best I could. I have been using my ‘me’ time to get dental work done. Now that it’s winding down, I need to check the rest of me out, like a colonoscopy, which I’m not looking forward to preparing for but need to get it done before the summer. If you don’t take care of yourself, who’s gonna do it for you?
If I could find 5-10 min. by myself that would be enough. Hubby is off work for 6 weeks after his surgery, stepson still hasn’t found a job. I have no time to myself unless I go to work early. I did get my nails done and yesterday got my hair done, that made me feel better.
