Today was everything I needed it to be. My "Active Rest Day" was exactly that: Active and restful!
Good things about today: Hot shower on my achy muscles first thing in the morning, perfect brunch at the Cafe (free fresh squeezed OJ and a coffee to boot!), heading to the gym right afterward to walk on the treadmill for 20 minutes and then stretch, coming home and taking a nice long afternoon nap, waking up just before the sun set, taking Ollie out to the park at twilight, drinking lots of water, going grocery shopping and getting almost everything on my (forgotten) grocery list, eating granola with peanut butter and bananas and watching a few episodes of Dexter (Season 4), sitting back and getting blissed while listening to my Divine playlist on YouTube, making a tasty melange of asparagus, broccoli, and portobello mushrooms sauteed in butter with lemon juice and some avocado on the side (wow, so simple and so good), new lotion for my wintery skin, going out dancing at a Disco Dance Party! So fun! Such great music! My friend arriving and making the night even better, coming home and eating half an avocado, recognizing a habit of complaining just to socialize, seeing old patterns clear as day and deciding I want something new, taking my power back and letting it be, feeling my feelings successfully, relaxing here with my doggie and The Presence.
That about sums it up! It really was a good day.
Love,
Adrienne
