Today once again I woke up soo exhausted I just washed my face, brushed my teeth in the morning and went back to sleep for two more hours. Then up for breakfast and after an hour went back to sleep until about 3:00pm. A much needed rest for my body after this hellish week.
Then my brother insisted, a cold shower might help since it has in the past when I’ve been wiped out. Indeed he was right. I took my time and let the water hit my face and with my eyes closed just imagined myself in the pool I used to love going to soo much.
Anything can be meditative if you just let your mind quiet down and focus on what you’re doing in the moment or imagine your happy place such as the beach, or a pool or baking in the restaurant etc…
I got ready and we packed up our dinner to take to the park, a great suggestion my brother had who is always looking for ways for me to relax, and get out of the house. It was a longer walk than expected but we got there with my mom and sat down to eat with a gorgeous view. It was a very very serene and relaxing 2 hours before my bladder decided it was time to come back home. A nice semi pain free time eating and feeling the cool breeze, smelling the barbecues of the other park goers and hearing the birds sing their song.
While I did not get on that glider today, I did walk a lot, went up quite a few stairs and mentally recharged with the beauty of nature, my brother and mom. All in all not a bad day.
