Sunday's rolled around--and I think it's the only reason I've stopped running around like crazy. This has been an exceptionally busy week (I'm not complaining--I'm busy with tasks and projects I've chosen) and when I get too busy, my days start to blur together.My creative vision starts to get blurry, also.
Today, I'm taking my own advice and grabbing a few hours of do-nothing time. It will be a short block, because I have family to visit with; but I expect I can disappear in my room for an hour or two. I think today's perfect afternoon involves gifts for body, heart, and mind:
- BODY...
- an open window, to let in the smell of spring
- an alpaca blanket bright with colors from Peru
- HEART...
- Lily, inspirational poodle extraordinaire (of course)
- a nap in the sunshine (best kind)
- MIND...
- time to journal about the novel I'm rewriting, to tease apart the story threads and play with them
- quality alone time with some exercises I want to re-visit in Chapter after Chapter
Sounds like I'm doing things during my do-nothing time...but not really. I'm leaving space in my life to rest, recharge and, most important, hear my own heart. It's lovely. Try it!
