Yeah, snow day today. School was called off yesterday at 6pm because of the pending snow storm which was supposed to start around midnight. I assume it didn't start until about 5 am or so. It's beautiful outside. Soft snowflakes falling hard and fast. Had breakfast with my creative and artistic friend Karen at 8:30. It's highly likely I may have stayed in bed until 10 if she didn't call. Colin came home for spring break (from Georgia). Welcome home, Colin! It's nice to see you shoveling snow.
Over the past few years I've been trying to find ways to manage stress without any success implementing what I learn. Stress, I believe, is the root of all disease. To quote Louise Hay "stress is a fear reaction to life and life's constant change." Anticipating future "change" and de-stressing my life, lead me to a Feng Shui design class recently. What I brought home from this class was that I need to make deeper change within my home. I need to somehow find a way to increase air circulation and allow natural light. I understand that Feng Shui is a process that goes into the initial stages of planning to build and renovate a house. While I can't afford to tear down my house and start all over, I am sure I can discover some air-purifying plants and inexpensive ways to assemble the elements of natural light and a peaceful flow in my home. Because my days begin and end at home I need to create a peaceful atmosphere as my base to launch myself into the wild and wonderful world. Any ideas are much appreciated.
