Rest and Relax

“Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest taken between two deep breaths.” — Etty Hillesum

Today was a meditation day for me. I got under my weighted blanket, turned out the lights, and chose a guided meditation. It had to be done for self-care or I won’t sleep tonight. The brain is so weird.

Do you ever think about how screen time can bring out our primitive nature? I wonder if over the years our offspring will finally lose the hunter-gatherer instincts that they don’t need anymore. Or more specifically, if they’d adapt to screens in a way that allows their bodies to avoid increased anxiety levels?

Well anyway, I looked at the screen way too long today.

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
