Day 273 of 2022-End of September

 Happy end of September. Its a great time of the year where the leaves are falling and another turning of the seasons. 

Its going to be a great Autumn. Before we turn the page again, remember to reflect on how the month of September went. List all the things that you are grateful for and the things that have made this a great month. If things were not so great, remember to note the lessons learned and yes there is always a lesson as hard as I find it to be sometimes.

Have a great Friday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 271 of 2022- Be done with work

 So I hope that you are almost done with work. It never seems to end but this is a gentle reminder to always remember family first. 

Put everything aside and go be with your family and see what their needs are. You have put in more than enough time so now put in the time with you and your loved ones.

Its always hard to stop work but work never stops. So you have to be strict with yourself and just put it down and walk away. 

Today just remind yourself that you or your family comes first. Nothing else.

Have a great evening.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 269 of 2022-Monday motivation

 "Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others".

— Amelia Earhart

As you start the week, here is a great quote to all of the Women out there. Try to do the impossible and even if you fail, at least you would have tried and that would be a challenge for others to do the same.

If you have something that you have been thinking about trying, give it further thought and then a shot. 

Have a great Monday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

It is a great time to be outdoors so make the most of it.

Day 265 of 2022-Autumn quote

It’s the good kind of ache, like the feeling you get on the first real day of autumn, when the air is crisp and the leaves are all flaring at the edges and the wind smells just vaguely of smoke – like the end and the beginning of something all at once".

— Lauren Oliver, author

Hope you enjoy this weather if it is Autumn where you are. Something new is beginning and I can't wait to see what the season brings!

Day 263 of 2022- Can you take a power nap

 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. 

Enjoy your evening!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 262 of 2022- Another Monday it is

 Monday seems to have an uncertain ring to it this week. So many things in the air and so much going on. 

I sometimes don't even know what is going to be coming my way but like any other times, I know and have faith that I will get through it. 

So no matter what you have going on, know and have faith that you will get through it as you always have, even if things seems very unsure. 

Hang in there and know that you've got this.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 261 of 2022- End of the weekend

 Yesterday I wrote to make time for yourself and today was another day where it was a perfect A+ Sunday. I would rate the weekend an A+!

I love the time that I had this morning sitting out in the dark with my cup of coffee and just enjoying the cool weather. I then went for yoga which felt great after and had the remainder of the day to just chill. I mean this is the sort of day I would love every weekend! 

I constantly strive to make time for myself. I feel that we all need to do the same. How can you create more time for yourself?

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 260 of 2022- Saturday

 I love the weekends when there are no plans. Today is one of those days. The only thing that I had was a massage so this is a great day. 

Sometimes we just need to put things aside and make room for ourselves. This weekend was one of those times where I could do that. I love having the time to myself and just relaxing. Overall, I would rate it a A+ Saturday. 

How is your Saturday going? Make room for yourself. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 258 of 2022- Mid September review

 Yes we have already reached mid September. Take the time to reflect on how the month has been going. How are things going for you? What can you do to take time for yourself and to be gentle with yourself?

What goals would you like to accomplish by the end of this month? If the seasons change where you are, what will the new season bring for you?

Take the time today or this weekend to truly reflect. Before you know it, it will be the end of the month.

Have a great Thursday!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

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. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 256 of 2022-I needed this quote today

 "You have to have confidence in your ability, and then be tough enough to follow through".

We all feel like we have the confidence but we also need to be tough. Its being tough and following through with it that will give us even more confidence. You don't have to take gigantic steps but just one small step will do. Be tough!

Have a great Tuesday!

Day 254 of 2022- Rainy Sunday

 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!

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.

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!

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!

 For those of us here in the U.S, its a long weekend for many of us. It is always nice to have a three day weekend. Use it well.

“Wherever you go on this beautiful, relaxing weekend, make sure that you always remember to bring the happiness of your own sunshine with you, so that you may spread that happiness to all of the people that you encounter.”- author unknown

The quote pretty much says it all.

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!
