Thoughts

I keep wanting to post more thoughts but not having the time to do so! One of these days I will get to it.....Well, actually there IS time, but we're learning to not pack it so full that one is stressed all the time. So, it is just as important to fit "rest" into one's life as it is to "get things done". So, we are practicing fitting rest in (rest does not include time spent sleeping or watching TV...this isn't really "rest"). I learned this from a book called The Anxiety Cure....if anyone is interested in learning ways to deal with anxiety or an imbalanced lifestyle, some of the thoughts in this book are very interesting. We're also implementing the recommended practice of "transitioning".....if you're curious, check it out. This is an especially helpful practice when you are in a new place and taking in lots of new things all the time. It helps manage all the new experiences internally without being overwhelmed. Resting and transitioning help someone process experiences, thoughts, and most importantly feelings so you can handle things. If we don't take time for these life can be more overwhelming and one won't grow as much because one isn't taking time to reflect and process life, instead they skip over some of it. Anyhow....I guess I have shared a few thoughts that I thought I would save for later.....
