Let the Water Run ...

"I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy

if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning

alone in my apartment.  That's how I refuel."

Audrey Hepburn

Our society is accelerated even during relaxation, like hot yoga.  Yoga is a beautiful and intriguing practice that has no need for a zumba effect.  Even vacations can be filled with non stop activities, returning home more tired than when we began.

Time management encourages us to pencil in down time; but if we accomplish our day's agenda, we frequently roll a few tasks from tomorrow into our present day.  If we meet our goals, we are to use the unsuspected space for regrouping, not overload.

It is important for each of us to discern a spot in our day just for stillness.  Whether we get up fifteen minutes prior to the waking of our family or remain awake after the family's  bedtime.  Get really creative ... slip into the bathroom, lock the door, and let the water run as though it were cleansing every cell in the body!
