Exquisite silence...

Today I had a yoga practice where my mind

 wanted to quit before my body.  I pushed past this.

In the the end we closed with a minute of mediation.

I had a moment of exquisite silence. 

If you are like me (a 55ish year old woman) and practice yoga, your body and mind might initially creek and moan. But as you get stronger and work out those kinks, mentally and physically, it's worth it. It's so worth it.

Last night I had a pity party whereby I was consumed with worry, self doubt, self-criticism. I made a conscious decision this morning to reset and, without being trite, practice gratitude. I'll list my blessings each and every day when I get up and before I go to sleep.

I woke up this day...

I woke up this day with the sun shining through my window.  I opened it and there was a slight breeze.  I am thankful & grateful.

To receive...

To receive you must first give.
