“Life is all about balance.
You don’t always need to be getting stuff done.
Stometimes it’s perfectly okay,
and absolutely necessary,
to shut down,
kick back,
and do nothing.”
~ Lori Deschene
“Balance is the key to everything.
What we do, think, say, eat, feel,
they all require awareness
and through this awareness
we can grow.”
~ Koi Fresco

I think it’s a challenge for many of us, we’ll just keep working at it. ♡♡

I think I’ve been almost at shut down for a couple of months or more now. Learning that it’s okay is still a challenge. My brain still has energy–LOL! 😉

I love this Wen, so needed today! I told my husband today was mental health day for Kim. He agreed! (been a bit crazy busy with “stuff”) Speaking of, my new website you wanted the details.

This is a complete departure from fibro, I am doing a review of women writers first. Notable women and should be remembered for their great works! It’s really fun for me! ~Kim

Reblogged this on Lorraine's frilly freudian slip and commented:
Balance! Yes, I need that in my life. I am working on it with Tai Chi, and trying to be more mindful. Shutting down — done that a lot lately.
The image is gorgeous Wendy. You have such an artist’s eye for photography!

Hello, Wendy! Well shared. …And Most of us forget that Rest, Relaxation, Leisure, and Simply Enjoying life are an Essential part of life. Thanks for the Reminder. Love and Regards. 🙂
