[...] Plan for Renewal. The blogosphere was overwhelmed with year end and new year resolution posts. This is one I found just before the holidays that I want to mention now that we are past the holidays. Thinking and working on alternative actions requires mindfulness. It doesn’t just happen randomly. Karen Wallace recommends some simple, quiet, and soft ways to create that space in The Calm Space. [...]

Vitania – You and the tea! Brilliant. Especially that first cup in the morning… and the one late afternoon. I struggled to stop the need to always be reading something but once I kicked the habit, I found that my quiet moments were so much more restorative and calming. Enjoy your tea xx

Mmmmhmmm – Get Quiet and Tell a better story – 2 things that I know I should focus on for a better holiday. With the young ones talking in my ear all day long, i long for a little quiet corner – but I usually end up with a book or magazine. So i am thinking the next time I have tea, it’s me and the tea..:-)

Anne – my thanks and I’m glad my article has been of some help. I know how you feel about life being out of control. I think when you have kids at school, and the end of the school year looms at the same time as preparations for Christmas and all those parties, things can get pretty chaotic. I’ve just come out of a week of school functions and am planning on being a vegetable and hiding in the airconditioning for the day tomorrow to give myself a break.

Want to join me?

Take care of yourself!

LG – Welcome to The Calm Space, it’s lovely to hear from you! Good luck with your end of year preparations…

This article is perfectly timed for me. I think life is out of control at the moment with so many people needing things from me. I definitely need to take your advice. Thank you for your article. It has helped me.

Rene, Do let me know how you go with that. I hope you’re feeling much more on top of things soon – and taking good care of yourself. You deserve it, you know! Thanks for commenting. xx

I definitely will be trying your remedy for fresh life and strength, as I need all the help I can get. Last night I was still awake at 2am,going through the long list of things to do the next day with the kids and errand running I was exhausted even before the day started. I left at 8:30am and was home at 6:45pm. Still did not get everything done, but I am absolutely exhausted with a massive headache. Will be printing this one out to review everytime I get off track.
