MOTIVATION MONDAY:

Well, happy Monday.  I'm usually busy setting goals for my week ahead on Monday mornings but nothing about life these days is usual.

I took a 'me time' out yesterday, from 9AM - Noon. I was immersed in a virtual retreat led by the fabulous Kimberly Wilson of Tranquility du Jour.  I'm so grateful to be a part of her community of amazing women.  It was so nurturing to give myself three straight uninterrupted (except for Stella) hours of meditation, yoga and art journaling.  It seems like this is a time when universally we are forced to take better care of ourselves.  I saw a post on social media by a woman that said she used to try and schedule self care time, but now she realizes it's no longer an option, it's a necessity.  That's a great lesson, you are not an option!  You cannot give from an empty well.  Fill yourself up first! Especially now during this stressful time.

Have a great week!  Stay strong, stay safe and stay home!
