Then a few weeks ago I stumbled into Modern Mrs Darcy. And even though I haven't taken the courage to leave a comment, she has been such an inspiration for reconnecting with my blogger-self that naturally I had to mention her in my very first entry.
I intend to follow the example of the wonderful community who shares favorite things that lift their spirits, so here goes :
- Waking up at 5.30 in the morning for my wellness ritual : oil pulling, yoga, hot water with ginger and lemon, and some quiet reading before the work-day starts off. I've been doing this since January and I have to say it is a total game changer : I have a lot more energy during the day, I have healthy gums (who doesn't love that ?) and most of all I don't have that feeling of waking up and jumping straight into my work clothes for another day at the office.
- Freesia season !!! Growing up freesias were always my birthday flowers, so my very special bond with these heavenly-scented beauties is still on. Something so uplifting and positive in their perfume, it makes me smile every time !
- Beautiful, miraculous, extraordinary Ashwaghanda, helping with my work-related stress levels. Almost one week in, and feeling the positive effects already. My sleep is restful again, I don't jump to conclusions so fast, and I manage to take things slow without losing efficiency. Will report back for the long run effects.
- Meditation : I have reconnected to my evening meditations after a few months pause and as usual, my first thought was "I was crazy to let this go !". Then my second thought kicked-in "No need to feel guilty, enjoy this moment" and so I did. For now I am following the Oprah&Deepak Chopra 21 days meditation "Expanding your Happiness", so :
Welcome to my freesia-scented universe and Namaste !
