I used to meditate when I was younger and your post has inspired me to try it again. The problem I have when I try to slow down is that I start to feel guilty about all the things I think I should be doing rather than just taking care of myself. Time to refocus and realize that I don’t have to do everything right now.

Thank you, Liz! Your post made me stop and breathe with you.

I spent November writing a novel, so now I’m doing all of the holiday knitting and prep and celebrating numerous birthdays and taking care of the dogs and – and – and. Okay, Inhale… Exhale… Yeah.

Lance – I’d also like to throw in there how when life gets so busy, we may end up being spacey and doing dumb things like sending the wrong email to the wrong person! ha ha! (How embarrassing would that be?) LOL! And maybe you need to dim the lights and light candles when you do yoga… sometimes, when I especially need to calm down I do that and of course my hubby and kids just tease me like I’m some weird-o.. but it works for me! Thanks for your comment!

Hi Liz,
Life is crazy busy. Kids activities. Work. Social gatherings. Blogging. Home projects. Sleep (wait, that one doesn’t happen!!). Okay, so life is definitely busy. I’ve recently been trying out meditation in the morning (I should probably be doing that right now…) as a way to calm myself before my day really gets going. It helps. Not unlike yoga (I’m not there yet – with yoga – why??). Anyway, starting the day in a calming manner is very much a positive way to start my day off…

Enjoy the yoga Liz. And “be” in all the moments your life has to offer you!
