So we got back from vacation late last night. Nothing too terribly exotic- but beautiful none the less. We went to Couer d’Lene in Idaho. An absolutely beautiful area- I’d have to honestly say I couldn’t find a single thing that wasn’t enjoyable about the area. It was one of those trips that was fun, relaxing, pleasant and just overall perfect (even with the kids arguing!). While the plane ride wasn’t long (and I was able to sleep in this morning), I’m feeling pretty exhausted tonight, but wanted to share a few thoughts.
Sometimes when I think of self-help, I still have a tendency to think that it’s outside of me- meaning that it has to be a book, a movie, a saying, some sort of thing that is not a part of me. Which, as goofy as I think I am at times seems a bit ironic considering the name of this site! Having been away for a few days (and away from working on my sites and everything else web related), I sort of felt a little bit of a pinch today. Nothing major- but sort of this tensing up feeling. I didn’t do much with it- just sort of acknowledged that it was there. After sitting with it for a while, I realized that it’s just a part of the process. While I am still reading something that keeps me focused (yes, a fourth Brian Weiss book), I’m also reading more about blogging and web work. So in not working these past few days- what I was feeling today was just sort of re-attaching if you will, to what is I’m doing.
Now, as I’m getting ready to go to bed (after my ‘lovely’ tub….), I’ve just decided to simply acknowledge what I was/am feeling, get back to meditating tomorrow ( yes, I skipped a few days on vacation…my ipod was just about drained!) and find a way to squeeze pilates into a very busy day. Which, when I consider the payoff I get, won’t feel like I’m squeezing anything at all.
