 Happy New Years Eve! Yesterday is gone and there is only today which is the last day of 2022. Give yourself a pat on the back and a hug. You made it through 365 days of another year. Day to day living can be hard sometimes but you did it. Cheers to you and well done on getting through everything that you did for the year. 

Today is the day to live, to believe and do but mostly to love. Love everyone, especially yourself. 

Have a great new years eve and enjoy the day!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

 What are you thinking about these last 2 days? What types of feelings are coming up for you? Notice everything that comes up and just sit with it or write it down.

I hope you get to leave 2022 on a good end note and if this has been a hard year, I can relate. Now is your opportunity to leave it all and find a new beginning in 2023. 

This year has been great on many levels and its now time to move forward.

Day 363 of 2022- 3 Days left

 The year is winding now and if you haven't already take time to reflect and look ahead. If you have a tumultuous year remember what you kept telling yourself to help you move forward and then use that to carry forward into the new year.

Take a photograph of this year and make the mental memory book of all the times where you were loved, supported, all the hard times, all the laughter's, joys and heartaches and then use all of lessons learned, smiles and  take that into next year.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

 With just a few days left in the year, I hope that you are enjoying every single bit of it. Love every moment that you are in. I know that even in the hardest of times, we can all find solace in something or someone. For me, its always being with my kids. For you it maybe something else. 

Find that place and enjoy every moment left in this year. Make it count.

Day 357 of 2022-9 days left

 As you think about lessons learned for this year, take the time to also think about how you can apply these lessons. Growth comes from not just knowing but also applying the knowledge that you learned. 

It can be something that you just think about for now in the back of your mind. Its good to reflect and take what you need into next year, leave the rest behind. Only you get to decide what that looks like.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 356 of 2022-10 days left

 In my last post, I wrote about reflecting on the lessons learned and to just write them down. A lot of times we learn the hard way and the lessons learned can come from not easy experiences. 

It is easy  and feels safe to not want to revisit the experience, however, in order to learn its better to have an understanding of the experience. 

The lesson can be easy and not always hard. For me, this year was all about changing my job and I remember how impatient I was and the feeling of desperation that I was just applying for roles that I was not even interested in. The lesson for me was to remember that the key was to be patient and to know that this is about my career and I needed to apply for jobs that was more in line with what I wanted to do. Another words, I should not just settle just for anything. 

Things did work out and I got a job that I wanted so I do feel better about that. But that was the lesson. There are so many big and small things that happen throughout the year and all the big and small lessons count. That is what makes us grow. 

Reflect and revisit the easy or hard experiences for today and see what you did learn from them. Writing them down definitely helps so take the time. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 355 of 2022- 11 days left

 With just 10 days left in the year, how do you plan to spend the remaining days? The count down has officially begun. 

Now is a good time to look back at the year and think about all the lessons learned. Write it down as you think about them. The end of the year is a good time rest and reflect and you can do both. For today, just think about them and make a note. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 354 of 2022- Savor the moment

 As the holidays approach filling the air with excitement and joy, remember to truly savor each moment. Sometimes dealing with family is not easy but even then, savor the moments and fill your heart. 

This time will not come again and time really does go by fast so do savor every moment, every food your eat, every hug, every quiet time, every act of kindness, just everything. 

My mantra for the holidays is savor the moment. What is yours? Take time to reflect. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 353 of 2022-Not any road

 "If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there."-George Harrison

A great quote to keep in mind as you think about next year.

As you think about the next year coming up, think about where you are going. You certainly don't want any road or anyone or circumstance to determine that for you. You want to have a sense of direction. Its not to say that everything needs to be planned out now or figured out, its taking an eagle eye on things and then creating a map for 2023.

Day 352 of 2022-A quote from Princess Diana

 “Every one of us needs to show how much we care for each other and, in the process, care for ourselves.” – Princess Diana

Caring for yourself is the most important thing you can do especially if you are going through an extremely difficult time during the holidays. Start with you first if you can but if not, care for others and in the process you will be caring for yourself. 

Small care of acts go far so start small.

Day 351 of 2022-Your space

 “Is there a place you can go to break away for a little while? If you haven’t yet built your tree house, it’s never too late to start.” – Gina Greenlee

I love the idea about having my own tree house. It can literally be a tree house or a corner anywhere where you make it your own space. If you need to get away, find your corner. Start now and know that special space is just yours to retreat to, where feelings can be felt and words can be written.

If you don't have a space, close your eyes and just imagine what creating that space would look like.

 “In this game, everyone needs a break to refuel, recharge, and jump back in full throttle.” – Helen Edwards.

Now is the time to think about just taking a break to refuel and recharge. You can think about jumping back into full throttle next year.

What does refueling and recharging look like for you? Write and reflect about it and then do it. Maybe its taking extra days off or completely unplugging. Its the small steps you take to take care of yourself.

Day 346 of 2022- Tough Week

Life is so fragile. Here I was writing about making the most of the holidays and enjoying the season but now after some much sad news it is not possible to enjoy the holidays.

There is always a period of ups and downs so when you are really down and it seems impossible that you will get through the period, you just take it one minute at a time and do your best. While I am unable to enjoy the season, I do know that I will get through this period. Life is fragile, life does move on and time does pass so know that the pain will ease.

Remember to always be kind and patient with others especially this holiday season and the end of the year where we meet a lot with family and other loved ones. 

The quote above is a great reminder that kindness is like snow and it really does beautify. Be kind as much as you can and if you keep that as a mantra for the rest of the this month and into the next years of your life.

Just a few more weekends before the year ends so enjoy every moment of it.  Be grateful, kind and always smile.

 This holiday season learn to put yourself on DND. That means turn off your phone, other devices and really take your time to be with your loved ones, friends to just by yourself.

Putting on a DND is so hard for a lot of us who are used to working and going from one thing to another. Start next year off right by taking the time for you. Put on that DND and enjoy the season.

Day 338 of 2022-Are you tired

 As you start the week, think about the energy that you are starting the week with. A lot of us are probably shopping and getting ready for the holidays coming up and feeling tired. I know that I am tried. 

Th energy that you start the week with does impact the rest of the week, however, you can change that. I know that if I am tired a goods night rest does help to restore my energy. Other things that also help is exercise (even walking), taking care of yourself by taking a few moments to yourself, deep breathing, good nutritious food or just sitting in your couch and relaxing for the rest of the evening.

So make it a point to do whatever you need to do to help with your energy levels.  This will help with the energy that you start the week with. Start creating your own Sunday care habits and see where that takes you for the remainder of the year, it may help to build these habits into the hew year. 

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 337 of 2022-Use this time

 Really use this time to journey within. December is a great time to reflect and think about how the year went for you and also to think about next year which is coming up really soon.

Use the remaining weekends to go within and find what you want. Write all your personal thoughts down, your wants and needs, your deepest desires. Really use this month to note all the feelings. I would say use December to dump all feelings into paper. Then take the time to read through it. 

You never know what comes up for you and how it can help you plan for the year ahead. Don't waste this precious opportunity. 

Have a great weekend.

Day 333 of 2022- Japanese saying

 A feed I came across for a Japanese saying stated that "Jigou jitoku" means "you get what you deserve."

What you get out of life is what you put in it. As I end the month of November and with the year almost over, I think about what seeds I want to plant to see the benefits. What acts of kindness and generosity am I giving this holiday season and will continue to do every day.

What am I giving back to life which has given me so much? Think about this reflection question as you go about your day. Every act of kindness counts and it does not need to be big. A smile or a hello can brighten someone's day. 

 Jigou jitoku is a good motto  to keep in mind today and everyday.

Day 330 of 2022-Give Thanks

 "Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow"-Melody Beattie

The quote by Melody Beattie above is so beautiful and really does express what gratitude is all about. I love that being grateful brings peace and creates a vision. It just makes sense to be grateful.

Day 323 of 2022- Sky

 I wrote about inspiration yesterday and trying to find it when you can. This morning, I saw the beautiful sky right before sunrise and was just in awe. It truly inspired me to make the most of this beautiful day and weekend. Unfortunately, I did not have my phone on me to take a picture.

Sometimes we forget how much we can get inspired by just the small things. The shades of red, orange, yellow and the blue sky just made it so hard to take my eyes of it. It was hard not to be inspired...

So find that one small thing that will inspire you to do what you want to do. I don't believe you need to go looking for it since it is everywhere. Just look.

For a lot of people here in the U.S, its Thanksgiving next week and likely a lot of people will be taking off after Tuesday. Spend sometime and think about how you would like it to go and how you would like the month to end. 

What are some of the things that you are grateful for? What are some of the things that you would like to work on? What are some self care habits that you can start?

Day 316 of 2022-Day with friends

 As an introvert, I struggle to make plans with friends. I always prefer my time alone on the weekends and with my kids. It's so draining for me to go out and have a good time. I simply just get too exhausted.

Today was an exception and sometimes you have to make an exception. I went out with 3 friends whom I had not seen in over a year and really had a good time. Part of it was scheduling the meet up early in the day so I am now using my time to unwind and relax.

I had a wonderful day. So this weekend or next or sometime in the future, schedule sometime with friends your have not met in awhile and make it worthwhile. After all, what have you got to loose. As the year comes to an end, reach out and go out. It may be hard especially if you are an introvert but give it a try.

Day 308 of 2022- Friday Well being

 Give yourself a pat on the back. The week is over. Today and during the weekend, make well being a priority. That could mean reflection on month, the year so far or start with just this week. 

The year is almost coming to an end so make the most the weekends. I know weekdays are hard and there is always so much going on. Make the most of what is left in 2022. 

Enjoy this weekend and take good care of yourself.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 307 of 2022-Thursday's plan

 The plan for today is to just relax and think about any plans that you can make for the weekend or for Thanksgiving which is only 3 weeks away.

Given the end of the year is coming up so soon, think about what you would like to do every weekend. Also think about what you can do early during the weekdays so that your Friday's feel more free. Maybe even take a half day off or a full day. Enjoying this time of the year is so important. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 306 of 2022- Hump Day Motivation

"When someone tells me “no,” it doesn't mean I can't do it, it simply means I can't do it with them".-Karen E. Quinones Miller

The quote is so true right? Don't take no and sit on it. Keep moving forward with someone who will work with you. No is not an answer for you. Somethings maybe a no but if it is something that you want or need don't take it as an answer. Find someone else. 

Hope you are having a great Wednesday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 305 of 2022- November

 So what does this month bring in for you? Take the time to first reflect on October if you haven't already. What are some of the things that you would like to see happen? What are some of you things that you would like to do for yourself?

One of the most important practices that you can put in place is being grateful. I know that things have been so busy and hard for me that it is hard to focus on gratefulness. But that is really the key, intentionally focusing on being grateful. 

So use the time to journal about the month and note all the things that are coming up and the things that you would like to see happen.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace!

Day 304 of 2022- Last day of October

 It's nice when we have 31 days in a month. Somehow that extra day does seem to help in some way. Its the last day of October and time to really think about the end of the year and month. 

What are some of your accomplishments this month? What did you try this month and what lessons did you learn?

I like thinking about the end of the month and just reflecting not just how quickly the month went but everything else that happened. Take some time to list things you are grateful as well. Its important to reflect and then move forward. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 302 of 2022- The last October Weekend

 Make the most of it my friends! Needless to say, the end of October is here and this is the last weekend.
What are the plans for the weekend? Use the time to reflect on how to spend the last 2 months of 2022. Time does go by fast and before you know it, it will be the holidays.

It seems like there is a rush to want to do things for me at least. I think because the year goes by so fast that you really want the last months to count. Maybe take some time to think about what are some of the things you want or not want to do. 

Make every day count my friends especially the weekends!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

300 days is a lot of day and now only 52 days left in the year. I guess the countdown officially begins. What are the plans for the remaining of the year?

Its not something that I have thought about yet but its time to really start to think about how I would like to end the year. Maybe that's a reflection question for this weekend. 

Time to get the wheels rolling for the end of the year!

 Don't you feel that sometimes that taking it easy mid week or taking the day off? I know I do but its always harder to go back to work on a Thursday after taking Wednesday off. 

I don't have the day off today but thought how nice it would be to just take a break, It could mean the day off or just taking a few hours off early from work or a really long lunch break. We should give ourselves a treat mid week.

So treat yourself to something fun today. What would that be?

So what are some things that you can reflect on mid month? How about thinking about what the end of the month would look like for you. Where are some adjustments that you need to make in your personal or professional life to gain most of the time?

We are constantly adjusting and readjusting and we just need the time and space to reflect on what those adjustments should be and do they align with you.

We have the power and we get to decide. Always remember that. We get to choose and if something bothers you or someone says something that affects you, you decide how you will take that or not take it. Take a step back from what was said or done and then work through the feelings. 

We have the ultimate freedom and don't let anyone take it from you.

 I was working from home today and right at 5:00pm after logging off my work, I went on the couch, turned on the T.V and took a power nap. That sure does feel good.

I slept for probably 20mins and when I woke up, I felt like just going to bed and sleeping a little longer but now its time for dinner. I feel a lot more refreshed now.

So no matter what you have going on, try to take a power nap and just see how that feels. You may feel a lot refreshed, ready to spend time with loved ones and make dinner or just order out.

Day 257 of 2022-In mid week

 Sometimes when it is hump day, I don't feel like like it is for me this week at least. Everyday has just been so busy and since I worked all of last weekend, I have not being able to take a day off. 

So mid week is really not mid but I am sure many of you have been working quite a bit as well of not more. Its just the way thing are. 

I keep reminding myself to hang in there and that has been key. There is no point in being stressed out and even if you are and you have to keep reminding yourself that. But keep reminding yourself that you need to hang in there. That will hopefully give you some strength.

 Its a complete wash out day for me here. A perfect day to sit in and get caught up on a lot of work unfortunately. I'd much rather be sitting outside and enjoying the rain. But that's my life currently. 

I always love this quote by Vivian Greene:

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...it's about learning to dance in the rain."

Remember that!

Have a great Sunday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 253 of 2022- Saturday

 If there is something that you have not done all week try to fit it in this weekend. I finally went to yoga for the first time in over a week and boy did it feel great. 

If you are like me and have missed a lot of gym or other exercise days, fit it in this weekend. Find the time and just do it. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 251 of 2022- Happy Thursday

 When things get really stressful, I keep reminding myself to breathe. Sometimes it lessens the stress but I can back to really being stressed again. I notice and notice and notice and do everything I can to manage the stress.

So I guess whatever it is that you are feeling, the first step is to just notice and notice and notice it. Then maybe an answer may come. 

Hope you enjoy the rest of today!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 250 of 2022-Hump day motivation

 I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence but it comes from within. It is there all the time.

— Anna Freud, psychoanalyst

A great quote to remember if you need a little extra strength this week. Take time to remind yourself that you have a reserve within that you can tap into anytime. 

Have a great Wednesday!

Day 249 of 2022- Tired morning

 Some mornings are just more tiring than others and today that is the way I am feeling. No gym today and work is just so busy.  It seems like an impossible next few months with so much to get through.

In days where you feel more tired, take extra care of yourself. Go easy and if you need to skip the gym then skip the gym. If things seem like a lot as they do for me right now, just remember that you will get through the temporary pain and at some point things will settle a little more. You need to keep being gentle with yourself and just prioritize what needs to get done. One step at a time, that's all we can do. 

Have a great day and week!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Enjoy this holiday!

Day 247 of 2022- Sunday thought

 The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible.

— Arthur C. Clarke

Sometimes what feels like impossible can be possible if only we change out mindset. Discover your limits and find the thing that seems impossible and go beyond it. 

What is the thing that you have been thinking about where it seems impossible. How can you think beyond that impossibility? Discover yourself in this journey.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 246 of 2022-Free this weekend

 “Nothing in the world is more expensive than a woman who’s free for the weekend.”- unknown

I am not sure where I can came across this quote but it certainly would describe me for this weekend. I love not having to work for the weekend and its just me and the kids at home. We will be ordering out and planning to spend time together. 

For all the woman, free yourselves this weekend and just enjoy this time. All of us need a break on the weekend and moms most definitely need it more.

Have a great Saturday!

Day 244 of 2022- Hello September

 Hello September! Here we are. The official end of summer here in the U.S and in a few weeks, we welcome fall. It is a lovely time of the year. 

So how can you welcome September? What are some of the things that you would like to do this month? Can you spend more time on your dreams and start outlining how you would like to get there. No one is going to do it for you. You need to lay it out and move forward with it, one step at a time. 

This month will go by fast as well. Use it well and just take that step. Make time to always be grateful and be gentle with yourself. 

You've got this!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Dat 243 of 2022- End of August

 Happy last day of August! Use this day to reflect everything how the month went. There are always new lessons we learn if we pay attention. 

Use this time to list all the things that you are grateful for. Always be gentle with yourself and remind yourself that you are doing all that you can and putting forth your best no matter what your situation. 

Pay attention to all the things that did not go well either. Its okay that it did not as long as you learn and grow from it. Write down how it affected you. 

Have a great last day of August and now time to say goodbye to another month gone. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

 Good early morning. Another crazy day. 

"Ultimately, we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves"- Etty Hillesum

Day 241 of 2022-Start of another week

 At times when we are so busy, its hard to just pause and take a step back. I am drowning with my work and just can't seem to catch up and I know that most of you can relate.

Its going to be a very rocky couple of months and a difficult one to get through. We all have times like that and as much as I truly hate these times, I know that there is no other choice. 

Remembering that the pain of going through the next couple months is temporary certainly helps, however, you still have to go through it. For me looking to nature throughout the day helps with going through it and keeps things in perspective. A lot of times, just looking up at the sky makes me feel better. 

Find the thing that helps you in extreme stress situations that take your mind away even for just a few minutes. It could be reading positive affirmations, listening to music or looking up at the sky. Make it a habit to take those breaks so you can truly just feel yourself. 

Hope you all have a great week and a great day!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 233 of of 2022- Summing up my weekend

 To sum up my weekend at the beach, this quote says it perfectly:

“There was a magic about the sea. People were drawn to it. People wanted to love by it, swim in it, play in it, look at it. It was a living thing that was as unpredictable as a great stage actor: it could be calm and welcoming, opening its arms to embrace it’s audience one moment, but then could explode with its stormy tempers, flinging people around, wanting them out, attacking coastlines, breaking down islands.”

–Cecelia Ahern 

Oh yes, I love the beach and it was a truly magical weekend. Now its back home and getting ready for the week ahead.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Day 232 of 2022- Last weekend getaway

 This is the last weekend before school starts for my kids and we are away at the beach. Its so nice to just be at the beach and relaxing.

I find so much happiness at the beach. It really soothes my soul and its easy to just focus on the present. I never have to worry about anything when I am at the beach. 

What does the beach or any weekend getaway feel like for you? Find your happy, soothing place where you can feel like you are at the present moment and just relax. 

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

During times like this, I say just keep taking it easy. There is never such a thing as to much self care so if you need to take off a few hours for work and sleep, then do just that.

 "The only way to be truly happy is to make other's happy"- William Carlos Williams

We may not feel like wanting to make others happy especially if you are going through a lot right now and can't seem to find a way. 

Try to do something for someone else for a change. It does not have to be big. Something as simple as asking someone how they are doing, or calling a friend or letting someone know how much they mean to you can make a difference. 

Note how you feel and make someone's day. It will lift your spirits up!

Day 194 of 2022-Its Humpy day of another week

 People at work do tend to get so excited once we reach Wednesday's. We are halfway through the week and the weekend is so close. 

The weekend comes no matter but on Wednesday's it seems a lot closer. Look at your priorities today and figure out if you can get things wrapped up by Friday morning or latest noon so you can get a head start to the weekend. Stay focused and push through!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 193 of 2022- Tuesday motivation

 As hard as things get, try not to quit that easily. You will have hard moments when you just feel like "throwing the towel in". When they do come, keep reminding yourself, I will not quit, I will not quit, I will not quit. 

Then get through it and notice how you feel. Journal about it if you can. 

Have a wonderful Tuesday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 191 of 2022- The no rest continues

 Even though it is a Sunday, there is no letting up on getting the much needed break. I am finding moments here and there but not the really true rest and that is okay. Enjoy this too!

Even if you are getting small moments of rest, really enjoy it to and be grateful. When are not busy, we probably wish to have something to do but when we are busy, we wish to not do anything. 

So either way, just enjoy busy or not.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 190 of 2022- No rest weekend

 Its one of those weekends where there is no time to rest. I have a pretty busy weekend and week coming up so trying to find moments of rest and peace.

We all have weekends that are busy and its so important to find moments of quiet time. For me, that is usually in the mornings. If you have a crazy busy weekend, find a few minutes to just sit. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 188 of 2022- Summer plan check

 Take sometime to reflect on how school holidays are going ( for those of you who have kids and are on summer vacation). We all know that time flies by so really do take time to reflect if there is anything on the bucket list that you would like to accomplish before school starts again. 

Kids vacations really do go fast so play attention to them and really take the time to be with present with them. Most importantly, really enjoy this time.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 187 of 2022- New word a day

 Have you ever thought about learning a new word a day. Try to see if you can make it your goal. We all hear words that we may not know the meaning of so use the opportunity to look it up. You never know how you may use the new word in your daily conversations. 

Its always great to learn new vocabulary and new new word today is Daedal- Skillful, Cunning, inventive.

In a sentence I could probably say, "I am daedal in organizing". Well maybe.  

Happy learning new words!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 186 of 2022- Recovery day

 We were away for the long weekend and today, I decided to sleep in. No gym or yoga this morning. I was awake early and could have gone but I just stayed in bed and fell asleep for a few more minutes. 

Its amazing how your feel after you let your body recover especially after an exhausting weekend. If you are back to work, take it easy and make time for frequent breaks. 

Remember, it is a short week so make room for recovery.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 179 of 2022-Summer plans

 What are your plans for the summer? The summer of 2022 will never return so what are you going to do this summer that will be different and wild? 

How about planning some impromptu trips or just saying yes to all the summer plans that come up. Do something different and make the most of it since before you know it, summer will be over and then kids are back at school and you will be preparing for the fall and end of year. 

Make the most of it, enjoy and just really have fun no matter what you do. Summer is my favorite season and I plan on making the most of it. Get out there and say yes!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 178 of 2022- Monday Motivation

 "Act as if someone just said there's no reason to be afraid"-Phoebe Waller-Bridge

Because there really is no reason to be afraid. We get influenced by others, culture and our own mind. Take a step back and ask yourself what am I afraid of and why? The walk through and feel the emotions. 

Act like there is no reason to and move forward. Looking back a few years from now, you might be glad that you did.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 177 of 2022-Wake up early

 I know a lot of us love to sleep in on the weekends and we should especially if we have had a busy week and feeling tired.

I like to wake up early on weekends. I get an hour or two to myself and seem to get a lot done. Waking up early has been my thing and no matter how late I sleep, my body always wakes me up the same time every morning. 

If you never tried to wake up early, try it one time. You may need an alarm but notice if it makes a difference. It does take a little getting to but for me its made a huge difference. 

Enjoy your Sunday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 176 of 2022- Weekend time

 These are the times in life when nothing happens but in quietness the soul expands-Rockwell Kent

Allow yourself on weekends to be serene by being outdoors or in your favorite place. The weight of the week can dampen our souls and we need the weekends, vacations or holidays to allow our soul to life from the weight and expand. 

Notice how you feel and write it down.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!
