I was going to do breath-but this word haunts me. My son was recently sick and on oxygen for 17 days-struggling to breathe. Ten doctors later and the word virus still lingers. He is getting better and rebuilding his immune system. Sometimes we have to start over.
Life can kick us to the curb and we need the mentality to move forward. I took my son to the doctor and he came out without assisted oxygen. He was happy and I felt like maybe I could breathe normal again, too.
The body is an amazing thing-filled with mysteries, celebrations and madness. My son has to rebuild his body-he lost muscle mass and is weak. I told him to,"begin again." Our minds need a first step towards a fresh start.
Sometimes, we push ourselves too hard, don't eat right, don't move enough, or over do-don't sleep enough so, we can finish deadlines and projects.
So, be mindful of you. Begin again, each day with a plan, to treat yourself with respect. A list of breaks for the 3B's: Brain, Body and Breath.
Begin again.

Everyone is busy-
So, be mindful of you. Begin again, each day with a plan, to treat yourself with respect. A list of breaks for the 3B's: Brain, Body and Breath.
My 3B's today are:
Brain-Read, do puzzles, perhaps try Zentangles again, finish an essay I am working on.
Body-Walk to the river's edge, try Pilates, again.
Breathe: Perform a breathing exercise or meditation.
What about you, what are your 3B's?
Comments
My B's today - gosh can't think of any that are better or even equal to yours. So I'll steal them.
Happy A to Z Day 2!
Every day is a new beginning, a new opportunity. We have the chance to start again and/or change things.
Blessing - Every day I am thankful for my blessings.
Breathe - Every day I take deep breaths for health, serenity, connection
Beginnings - I am grateful I had the courage to love again and begin a new life in Mexico

B is for Breathe Deep
or feign affection
but receive with open arms and heart
lifes every emanation
for love it falters and tends
to fade away
and hearts are scorned and
cry from day to day
do not fold within
like a flower sleeping at
the end of its season
but always leave a little room
to begin again...
glad that your son is breathing freely
and so are you!
glad to have you back, mi amiga
