Listening To Your Body

It's a frustrating feeling when we have so much to do and our body decides that it wants to just sit and watch life go by. It fails to understand how important it is for us to keep moving. We have deadlines to meet, friends and family to entertain, and last minute shopping to do. Our body doesn't seem to care that now is not a good time to fall apart and the worse part is that it's trying to convince our mind to join in the rebellion. As much as we push ourselves to keep up with the holiday rush, our body and mind can over ride our best intentions. So why are we ignoring what is happening. It may be that we are so caught up with what is expected of us that we are going through the holidays like drones. Doing what we do every year just because. This year if we listen to our mind, body, and spirit, we may be surprised at what awaits us. Today, enjoy the holiday season the way you want to experience it. Don't do what is expected of you but do what brings you joy. Let your mind, body, and spirit lead you to new and special holiday experiences.

Take a moment to enjoy the things that make this season so special...

(More animals have popped up in the neighbor's yard in the past few weeks. I think there must have been a sale at Walmart. I haven't seen them with the lights but I'm sure they are beautiful. More the merrier.)
