Probably a remnant of my childhood, the fall signals a new beginning to me. It’s time for rethinking my plans, choices, and priorities.
I want to focus on taking better care of myself. I’m realizing that I can’t take good care of those I love if I’m depleted, or ill, or exhausted mentally or physically. So I need to do better at three things.
Meditation. For me, it’s taking a few minutes to close my eyes and breathe deeply. It’s amazing the positive impact this has on me. Why I don’t do it routinely is a mystery.
Eating mindfully. I was doing great at this until a couple of weeks ago. I’m so easily derailed. I’ve got to do better.
Exercising. I feel so good when I exercise. Part of it is how proud I am of myself. I want to feel that again.
I start tonight. What about you? What’s your focus for October?
