Rituals

As I sit here on this Sunday evening with my belly full of great food, which I didn't cook, I am looking out onto the mountains in the Eastern Townships, Quebec. If you have been following my blogs you know I have had a non stop two weeks. So, I chose to unplug for a day & a half. Arrive Saturday afternoon & home Monday morning.

Wow, just a little drive for a bit over an hour and I am smelling fresh mountain air. It's perfect & easy!

It wasn't planned, just a last minute get away with my hubby.
Organic eggs for breakfast, quick work out, a very relaxing massage & a bit of studying.
Oh........... and inspiration to write a book!
It's still in the idea stage, so I'll fill you girls in as it gets clearer.

That is what my day was like today. I'm ready to get back tomorrow.
Tonight I want to share with you a couple of my rituals that bring me happiness & help to restore my energy.

Here is a look into my daily rituals:

Do you take power naps? It's a 20-30 minute nap that totally refreshes you for the rest of the day.
My days are about 12-14 hours, so those power naps do me a world of good!
I rarely skip a day....except for Friday, I never seem to get it in!
It is a shorter day for me though, less than 10 hours.

This is another ritual. My bath time. It's about an eight minute morning ritual that I do at least three times a week. It's like a mini vacation to me! After every bath it's full body cream time..well you know, if not you get that prune-like, dry feeling... ewwwww.

These two rituals are to express to all of you ladies that you don't have to wait for that once or twice a year to get away & recharge. Do it now! Jump in your car for a drive, take a bath, take a day at the spa, or two or three!

Even one day off, or a few minutes in the bath can be pure bliss.

It has been for me today!

Much love,
Vered
