Pippi, yesterday on the very day she turned 4 years old. The dresses for dolly and Pip are from Auntie T and the dolly “Brianne” is from Granny. Pip had an exciting day with presents galore. She will have her party this Sunday at home.
A long road of healing is still being travelled by me. Just walking for exercise. Going for a massage today to try and help my back–I think the stitch may be from back damage I acquired after lifting furniture by myself all December and perhaps from Bikrams?
I have the system that after long periods of emotional stress, my body seems to go into a shock like state and I feel weak and nauseous for months afterword. The difficulty is even recognizing when I’m under chronic stress. I always think pushing issues to the back of my mind to deal with “later” works. It never does, I just keep myself existing in a hidden state of stress. And I don’t crash until I get physically sick.
But I have learned much. Most importantly that : A calm mind listens to the body. An agitated mind drives the body.
Needless to say, I am guilty of driving my body constantly and never listening to it.
I am in the midst of big life decisions. But I feel I am on the right road to make OK decisions without falling into the ditch along the way. And I am back to meditating each night at home before bed–it is the least I can do for life balance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
