Forward nine hours. Back three hours. Forward four hours. Back 10 hours. I have now reached my "final destination" once again after almost a month on the road. The result is that it is after 5am, and I have been awake since 1am sneezing, coughing, and trying to breathe. The good news is that I don't have swine flu, the bad news is that I am clearly out of balance!Thus, the need for a jewelry reminder...and a plan of action.
I bought this necklace from a local artist while on the road. The large circle represents life and eternity, the inscribed symbols are local designs, and what I like best - the small circles represent the "human pie chart" - family, friends, health, career, spirituality - and bringing them all into balance to make a happy, healthy, and fulfilled life. Who couldn't use such a reminder??
As for the plan of action, a direct and immediate trip to Whole Foods and Trader Joe's to stock up on raw essentials. I picked up organic celery, spinach, romaine hearts, kale, cucumbers, bell peppers, carrots, avocados, apples, bananas and almond butter (thanks to Girl on Raw), tomatoes, and even threw in a bag of Go Raw super cookies (on the advice of Kristen's Raw). I only regret not buying two bags - they are that good!
Let the healing and balancing begin!!
If you have any other tips on how to find (or create) balance, please do share!
