A Place to Unwind
Tuesday, 22 September 2009 10:10 am byFor me, the best time of day is the early morning. It’s the only time of day when the house is quiet and I feel that all the world is perfect, peaceful, and my stomach is flat. And in the effort of attending to me time, I’ve developed a rather rigorous discipline of actually forcing myself up to trade one peace for another. I stumble over strewn pillows with the living room as my destination and a single focused thought of that first cup of coffee as a motivator. The “M O” is just about the same every morning… but I do it anyways because I know it’s the only time I’ll have to myself the whole day, and that time is precious to me. Mostly I read, but sometimes I just sit and collect my thoughts. No matter. The time is always well spent.
Life is busy. How are you making time for yourself during your busy time of life~ whether it’s at the beginning or the end of the day? Do you have a nook…a cranny… a refuge? A place to unwind, be inspired… where it’s comfortable and cozy? Do you make time to visit this place each day? Tell me about it.

Everyone needs a place to unwind. I am like you, I need my alone time in the morning before my day gets too hectic. I love to sit at one of my cafe tables on my deck and drink my morning coffee. My focus is on relaxing and enjoying the sounds of nature. Sometimes I even get to see deer or turkeys in my yard. It is a very peaceful time for me to reflect and plan my day.

Gol, I used to have that place, but my life is in transition now, my schedule is wildly shifting. Thanks for the reminder that I need to, once again, find that quiet place that seems to just get the day started off right.

Great to see you post on this! I enjoy those morning alone moments. I have a friend who does this at night. Either way it is personally valuable!
