I sent one of my gals on assignment yesterday, show us how many ways our readers can stop, sit, relax for a moment.. She travelled to a retreat… found a comfortable chair and … here are some examples of taking an “adult, TIME OUT” you can’t hear it but there is a water fall in the courtyard… it was very picturesque but you can sit anywhere, at any time… You just have to make the time, to STOP for a moment, and SIT …
I know it is hard.. every time I open one of my devices I find some kind of ad/commercial/video about how to get better, feel better, and how their product will be a miracle cure like no other.. All you have to do is send them your information and buy their product. This Time Out is free…it is all Y O U.
Ok you can do that if that is what pleases you.. but you can also try … listening to your body/mind…and you can’t properly listen if you are constantly on the go… or interacting with whatever noise is coming at you. BUT Y O U CAN…. stop for 5 minutes… and just sit down somewhere, close your eyes, and listen to nothing in particular.. maybe count your breath, in and out…
I recommend, you close your eyes, take a deep breath in… and tilt your head back, and just let it out with a huge big sigh… and feel how your body responds… as you exhale your shoulders actually crop slightly.. and wow it didn’t hurt at all, it wasn’t hard to do… you survived.. Try it for a few more minutes… I know you can do it… don’t be shy, let the sigh be audible if you like… its YOUR moment… After that hard workout… you can treat yourself to another quiet moment, maybe sip on a coffee, drink some organic tea… after all you took a TIME OUT… you deserve a reward… smile…
The best part is you can do it several times a day if you want… if its too hard, try it three for times a week… see if it helps…you can work up to doing it daily… Putting yourSELF first can at times be challenging .. but. you are worth it !!!
This is a cold hard fact…. no one but YOU can make changes in YOUR life, Things happen that we can’t control, but WE can control how we deal with/accept… the opportunities that come our way.

a door
When you tramp though the woods after a snowfall, the air is fresh the day clear, its COLD, cold enough it is keeping most visitors away. I get to be alone in the woods and on the trails, the most welcome sight after tramping through snow and wandering the landscape of sculptured trees and mounds of snow… is the faded yellow door of the small “comfort” station across from the parking lot.
How is February in your part of the world, I love February because it means March is just around the corner. Mind you I’m happy most of the time… I have a secret. I like being happy and I’ve been blessed with knowing joy and contentment in my life. I had to lie down yesterday, for some reason after my morning outing and running around, when I got home I was hit with nagging “unease”…. solution… lie down, turn off, and let the moment pass.
Silence, letting the mind and body simply R E L A X … … let the chattering in the gray matter play itself out…
Works most of the time. Are you good at relaxing, and allowing your body/mind to balance itself – ?- I call it “being Present” … some call it meditating, others call it prayer… I’ve even been told.. “you are doing nothing.”… ok.. call it what you will… doesn’t matter… just try it…
Value your intuition
When you suddenly have an “A-ha” moment or when a thought pops into your mind, it is the Universe sending you a message. As soon as you notice something, you should act upon it right away.

Pileated woodpecker
Pileated woodpecker
I was humbled and totally captured by this beautiful bird yesterday. He surprised me by appearing beside me, and I mean beside me… looked me right in the eyes, and actually stayed there long enough for me to re cover my shock at having him so close to me and my face. I was putting out seed along a fallen log for the other birds… he was an arm’s reach from me … we were face to face…
My only thought was … this must be the bird that hung around with me a year or so ago.. he would come and visit, then fly off and I’d hear his knocking…. loud knock knock knock.. on the various trees around.. He hung around maybe a week or two and then he was gone… I’d hear him, but never see him …. He left an impression… but with time.. the moments faded… so much else is happening in the world.
Yesterday when I saw him… the fact that he was so close to me, and stayed close enough to connect with me, brought back that first encounter… I had never seen a pileated up close .. ever… I was used to the Downy and the Hairy fluttering around waiting for the food to be put out… but never had I seen the pileated. What a majestic bird.
I was too taken aback and “in the moment” that getting a picture was just not even in my head. All I could do was look back at him … I might even have gasped… then he flew off calling as he went.
This morning I found the clip by Francois Potvin… I’m sharing it with you. Enjoy.
Life is an adventure. Every moment is a lifetime.

Snow can turn a world into a wonderland
No one an take away the joy you get from putting your whole heart into something.

If you are going to do it…… Put your whole heart into it.
Your degree of seriousness will affect the outcome. Your daily accumulation of effort towards your goals shows just how serious you are.
