HAPPY SOUL CARE AND SOUL FILLING SUNDAY!!!!!11
This morning I’ve started a bit slower because I needed it. Along with the Equinox and our temperature change here in the southern US, it was a bit of a busy week here. As I’m older now and all my kiddos are well and truly grown, I can do that sort of thing. Years ago I know from experience it just wasn’t that easy, even though I did at times make the time for me.
To put it another way, I needed to fill my tank. This personal tank is priceless to fill as it keeps me going just as yours keeps you going.
This weekend, like most, I’m not going anywhere special as I have a to do list that is a bit long. I’m sure you know that feeling. What I can and will do is take a bit of time to go back to the Smokey Mountains in my mind and remember as best I can the warmish air and the sounds and trees, birds and more. It may be that I may just sit outside in my yard which is filled with trees and birds (who like my bird feeders ;) ) I may do yard work which really needs done as I do a bit of wandering and pondering. It will fill my personal tank/cup in that way too.
Over the years I’ve mention this filling our tanks very often. At least once a month, LOL. It’s so important I keep doing it.
So what happens if we don’t re-energize ourselves and our personal tank/cup? At best you are irritable, cranky, go tired to exhausted, lose focus even more and concentration goes more than you would expect. You have no energy for extra things and basically after that point, your body starts to have more issues.
Now which came first the tired or the TIRED in the body? For many of us, after we get to the chronically tired state, it’s not enough to just have a nap once in a great while. We really need to take the us time, our time, for some extra TLC. Our body will need time off and out, in addition to higher nutrient foods. I know the trend now is protein but that’s not what I’m talking about as you well may know already. This is a very, VERY individual thing as our foods are part of our belief system on the same level as our sex lives and finances. It’s just that intricate for us.
Resting yourself before you get the stage of body really feeling it I prefer to discuss. After some points we may need assistance with the other and that’s not my gig other than Energy Therapy.
There is such a great need in our current society for us to find calming, soothing times in our lives. Vacations aren’t rest any more they are “Go, Go, GO marathons” for many of us. I know one of the “vacations” we took when my girls were little I needed a vacation from the vacation! Staycations I do love the idea of those. A few extra days to do what you need like clearing your home and resting are top 5 items in my book!
However you do it today, take time for you. Fill up your own wonderful cup no matter if or where you can go. Take time for YOU because you are the only one who can!
Just a little Sunday footnote for today.
Earlier today I had my pad and paper, made my list of “things to do” and promptly my higher connections, maybe my Angels doing a bit of steering, and all of me started cleaning my office which was a bit on the rough side. My home is small and I had let it become a bit of a clutter bug palace in here because I’ve been kind of like Aladdin’s Genie by Robin Williams, mentally I was here, here, here, here and oh yes here!
Focus…..ahhhhhhhh
Thankful for the higher connections because it is now feeling lighter and easier to deal with in here. I’ve fixed a clock that’s been broken for over a year. I’ve sorted through a vast array of papers too. SLOWLY the desk disaster has come clear and clean.
I sat here, doing something I’d not thought of doing today, but evidently it was much more needed than some of the things on my list. I listened to two wonderfully wise old women and teachers at a distance as I worked. Lunch of Gouda cheese and spinach sandwich with herbal yummy tea… relaxing and tidying all at the same time...
If this happens to you, don’t berate yourself for going off course. You are meant to do that thing even if your plans were something else. Sometimes when we make decisions on one side, our higher connection shifts gears so that we can do that thing or those things more easily.
Something
to Sunday night ponder about ;)
