Breathe....

I thought and thought about the subject and title of this blog post. It has been forever and a day since I sat down to share a tip, an "A-ha" moment or idea. As one of my last entries would indicate, life has been hectic. With a now almost 16 year old and a 2 year old, both of who rarely stop, a business, a race team, two horses, fur-babies, family commitments, a household to run...I am tired and weary at the end of the day. Stress levels can run high and I often have to remind myself to breathe. 
Last month I decided to detox from Facebook, a great tool to connect with friends and stay in touch with family. While I miss seeing all of the pictures of other's wonderful moments and reading the statuses that kept me connected with so many, I have to admit that the detox has been so beneficial. Instead of scrolling thru my news feed, I am taking the time for more important things. Time to breathe. 
See, my recent days have varied from potty training to tense nights at a race track...from book work to mucking stalls. All of which have required me to BREATHE! It was good timing to take a step back. I recommend it to anyone who feels like they have lost sight of what means the most. Maybe you'll pick up a book, take a trip to the beach or watch the clouds roll by. I have and (Ahhhhh) it feels good! 
The tips and ideas that I intended this blog for will start back up again soon.... ♥
