Love it Mountain Ash! I added it to my journal entry for today. Your statement about getting back from lunch with a shift in my thinking struck me as funny because sometimes it doesn't even take that long I can go to the bathroom and come back with a shift in my mood or thoughts. smile I am beginning to see little glimmers of my old self lately, which is heartening. I am making a daily practice of being mindful of my life. Instead of a resolution I chose a word for the year which was BREATHE. Whenever I feel myself getting anxious or overthinking I remind myself to breathe. Initially I had to consciously remind myself each time, but I've noticed that it is becoming easier and is requiring less thought. I have always taken reasonably good care of myself physically, exercised, eaten well, but It was my soul, my spirit I neglected and that is what I am trying to heal now.
