Intentions for the Week

Happy Monday!

I had a pretty busy weekend doing stuff around the house, packing up gifts for the Rincon Valley Little League & meal prepping. I don’t think I even left the house this weekend. I didn’t even realize that until now! My brain might have been kickstarted in Spring cleaning mode and I’m totally OK with that. Over the weekend I cleaned up my makeup drawer and I feel like I got a whole new lease on life (semi-dramatic). I also cleaned out the inside of the car because it was looking like a garbage can.

Oh, and I did some meal prep. I’d say we’re getting the week off to a good start!

How funny! I have been applying some Ayurvedic wisdom into my diet this week, I’m kapha too. Hot yoga and ginger turmeric tea help me get back into balance and feel so good.

Hi Tracy, I wanted to share something with you on bereavement. I really don’t know why I feel the need to share this but I do and I’m hoping it doesn’t make you too sad.
I feel your pain on the loss of your mother. My mom passed 17 1/2 years ago and I still miss her! Tears still spring to my eyes when I think of her and miss her.
My very best friend told me a long time ago that she cried everyday for a year after her mom passed. At the time my mom was still with us and I thought to myself “Oh Pam, that’s just not possible to cry every day.” Well it is possible to cry every day for more than a year. I could be driving to work and tears would suddenly overwhelm me. I was so adrift and disconnected on the first Mother’s Day without her I was numb and didn’t know what to do with myself and the first Christmas was just as bad. I was a lucky girl to have my mom in my life; she was everything to me.
