do tell : how do you take a break?

Hello my dear friends, and hello June. My goodness where has the month of May gone… As it turns out my ‘break’ couldn’t have come at a better time. I needed this so much to just enjoy the beautifully changing season with its many hours spent outdoors in the the fresh air and the warmth of the sun; walks on trails, little bike rides, playful picnics, outdoor meals, gardening, reading, singing, dancing with my girl or just on my own….  It’s so good to slow down once a while and – just do less.

For me especially, ‘doing less’ was really hard to actually ‘do’. I’m a busy girl with several things on the go. Can’t-sit-still kind of a person. So unplugging was a true challenge for my type of character ;)  I feel so good though and relaxed and happy and awakened from this deep bear-sleep. My health is thriving (still keeping up with my own thing). Spring is finally here, (on our side of the border it’s never here on time), and we’ve had a great rise in temperatures which always means great things but #1 is flip flops, #2 is smaller wash loads, and #3 would probably be less cooking and enjoying lighter summery meals ;)

So, my dear friends….

Do you easily find time to slow down and take a little break from your daily activities? Maybe you drop off the kids off at grandma’s once a while just so you could do nothing’? Let me know your ways of doing less. xo

ps. Yes, I wore YELLOW!
