30 days of self care, unpacked
30 days of self care This all started when I, feeling overwhelmed by my to do list one day, asked myself a question… "What do I need today?" I heard myself say "30 days of self care". What? Where did that come from? There was only a moment's hesitation before the...

Thirty full days of self care. What I learned through the experience unpacked tomorrow.
30 days of self care, day 30
Busy day. I took a break and was enjoying it so much, I added 15 extra minutes for self care. It felt rather lovely to do. But later, out driving around 9pm. Cool air. Window open. Music playing. And then there you were. A huge sliver of butter moon. I felt like a...

Oh cooler air, wings of my dreams. Today I surrender to renewal and to my bed, rocked to sleep by fresh night air. Self care, day 29.

30 days of self care, day 24
Day 24 of my 30 day of self care. This month of self care hasn’t been what I expected it to be. The give and take of question and inner answers has surprised me. Given me much to think about. Today I asked ‘what do you need’ and heard ‘a vacation’. Not the kind that...
30 days of self care, day 23
