Find things that when built upon the one before, create a space of peace, calm, harmony and balance.  Give yourself permission to take a breath, slow things down and remember what is most important.  Your partners and children, your health, living a life that is in alignment with your values.  When building one by one, like Zen rocks, you take something positive and healthy and stack upon it the next thing, and the next thing until you feel whole and complete and strong.  Because you matter.

We all deserve to nurture and nourish ourselves. Whether is is through good sleep, clean foods, exercise, good friendships, a nice walk, self-growth, or something else. You are deserving of finding ways to get on the track to your best life and your best self. Allow yourself the time to find things that bring you joy, peace, and connection to others and allow the glow to wash over you.
