Today i didnt write when i first woke up.

I got up after sweating all night (yall i think i won the battle with this bug) and needed to bathe. I hadn’t done a spiritual bath in a couple days and for the last few weeks i had been adding herbs and different things like crystals to aid with my purification.

Well today was basic. First off i aint feel like figuring out which herb/crystal or getting them down. I was sore and just wanted to feel cleansed not from anything I just wanted to feel cleansed. I used some white sea salt, pink Himalayan salt and Epsom salt.

i sat in that tub and watched some videos and just existed in that peace, its amazes me how clearing some salt water can be.

i got out the bath and my first thought was make a plan for your day. Without a plan you plan to fail right?

I set my agenda and got going but for the first time i put time in for me. for me to read, for me to just sit. even set the cleaning plan around me keeping my space to retreat to. My kids tore my house up yesterday and altered my bed time, and in all honesty one day in bed is all i needed. I can still be productive and rest.

I think back to my grandmother and how she did her weekends. It wasnt full of huge projects, it was simple tasks that could be handled while an audio book played or she listened to her favorite speakers. It was doing bills or folding laundry one day and going shopping or to eat another. There was balance.

Making room for my own sanity is something new for me. Fear of loss didnt allow that before, I’m glad i had the urge to set an agenda, for my life not just for business.

This is a new practice that so far seems to be working.

Im sitting in a quiet and clean house writing my blog, because it was in my schedule.

Its the simple things.
