The importance of good Morning Rituals

Let me say for the past two months I have started a calming morning ritual. My workplace and mental space occupied way to much of my energy. I found myself not looking forward to getting out of my bed. I started playing morning meditation radio on Pandora. Very yoga and zen like with lots of nature sounds. I like . Then I stepped it up a notch I began burning a scented candle. I just purchased a new from Yankee Candle I believe it is titled mountain lodge?.

I also add a few drops of lavender and gardenia essential oils to my steaming shower. It is a way to start my day off calm and relaxed.

So dear reader and fellow bloggers share with me your rituals.

I love Fridays! TGIF

It is actually raining outside at this very moment and I am having my first cup of coffee this week. Coffee makes me feel on edge and sometimes but not always a little queasy. I enjoy the fact that I have two free days ahead of me. It is indeed an illusion of free because there are chores and errands to be completed but the caveat is I choose the pace and order and priority. I always have better workouts and time to cook if I choose. My guilty pleasure is watching paranormal shows while resting in my bed . I know very indulgent of me but we all have our quirks. So fellow bloggers enjoy your Friday and if you want to share your thought on TGIF or your indulgences feel free to respond.
