What a week it has been . Angry bombers in the public and that terrible deadly crime at the synagogue with their worshipers . Let’s not forget we have an election coming up and those nasty t.v. adds and those dinner time constant telephone calls urging you to vote. Finally, the migrant crossing challenge. How can you do self care with so much turmoil in the world? How in the world can you paint?
This is probably when you need it the most. Schedule that ten minutes for yourself today.
- How about a quick 10 minute walk
- 10 minutes of yoga.
- 10 minutes of stretching exercises.
- 10 minutes of breathing exercises
- 10 minutes of having a nice cup of tea
- 10 minutes of reading poetry or your favorite read
- 10 minutes of meditating
- 10 minutes sketching
- 10 minutes of using markers
- 10 minutes of coloring outside of the lines
- 10 minutes of painting
- 10 minutes of your favorite music
- Next time order your absentee ballot to be sent to home, so that you can vote whenever you feel like it!
- Just do something. More importantly turn off that t.v. or social media account that is so negative. You will hear the same bad news over and over again. Until we are filled up with sadness .
Before you know it, 10 minutes turned into 15 and even maybe 20. This is when I enjoy painting the most. Put my favorite music on and just go for it. It all started with just ten minutes.
Peace in the even hour.
“We live in a rainbow of chaos”. P. Cezanne
