It’s been a while since i’ve been able to take a breath and share my life. I asked my work to send me overseas on a project in November… it ended up taking me til now to get caught up on everything else. I did get a 2-week trip home to see family and friends over Christmas, but even then I shared a portion of my time on work. I am happy to say I am not here to talk about that.

I’ve learned over these last few months how to stress myself into unbearable pain. So in the midst of it, I have tried to focus on simple things in life that can nourish my soul, mind and body. I’ve been spending my weekends at the library for hours reading biographies and historic events and my weekdays at the gym lifting and listening to audiobooks and messages of hope. I’ve turned my office into a serene escape with waterfalls and the sounds of nature and my evenings with bubble baths, soft bath towels and warmed pajamas straight out of the dryer. My nutrition is filled with lots of healthy protein and vegetables… and snacks of fruit. I’ve filled mornings with massages and days with good conversations reconnecting with friends. Its the simplist of actions that have started to restore my soul.
