Cozy up, this week we're in Beautiful England

Week 6

Summer of Music continues

with a visit to England

Dona Anderson

I had another video lined up for today but I wasn't feeling it when the time came to finish the post.

Funny how that happens.

It looked good a while back but then ... it wasn't.

So after some searching, I found this lovely one.  

I hope you enjoy it. 

I for sure loved all the flowers, the gardens and houses.

Beautiful England, friendly and inviting. 

We visited England way back in the mid 1970's. The countryside is beautiful and so much history. 

We got to spend some time in London sightseeing and also made a trip to Stonehenge where our young daughter and I both still remember a funny kind of feeling present like that of being watched or something else was there besides the tourists.

The world seems to be such as smaller place now as times have changed and we're connected more with news, travel and social media.

I hope you enjoyed this video and it brought you some time to relax, enjoy the beauty of the scenery and gardens.

PS. Our World is a very Beautiful place and we are the present caretakers.  

Our legacy will include how it is left for others. 

Take Care and have a wonderful week.

I was introduced to this piece late last year after I started learning to play the Cello.

It's very soothing and the Youth Orchestra is inspirational and makes me wonder what they'll be doing in their future.

I hope it's Music. 

There're more variations on You Tube

for you to pick your favorite.

Take Care & have a wonderful week.

Hope you'll visit again next week.

I have a lot of practicing to do in my future.

Quote by Maya Angelou guides us into Spring!

Wonderful words of Wisdom ...

MY Photo - Love Vancouver Island BC

"The happy heart runs with 
the river,
floats on the  air,

lifts to the music,
soars with the eagles,
hopes with the prayers."
~Maya Angelou~

It's the Perfect time to share this quote.

Our Spring season starts in a few days and it's already an exciting time of year.  

We have a gradual arrival to spring over several months as new flowers appear and I always love when it's cherry blossom time.

It's getting warmer out so the Rivers will be happily flowing as the winter snow melts in the mountains.

The Air is mixed with the scents of Spring flowers as they take their turns blooming in a rainbow of colors. 

Music is all around as the birds start singing to let us know it's morning and they seem to be happily welcoming back their friends after the winter away.  

And I'm sure our Eagles are busy getting nests ready.   I always love to see them high in the sky or resting in a tree.  

Our Heart is happy!

Thanks for your visit today.

It's amazing how fast the year is going but I always love Springtime here.

Lots of flowers to come over the next few months, lettuce is growing in the green house, gardens being prepared and more daylight. 💚

 Simply, One Breath At a Time.

Feel the gentle pulse of your

whole body resting,
now listen to the
words of your heart ...

Guided Relaxation invites you to gently connect to your breath and body.

It offers ways to access and experience deep relaxation of the body & mind to reduce stress and bring in comfort, presence and healing.

Each breath matters and our daily Wellness matters not only for how we live each day but also for how we connect and communicate with others.

Stress affects so many areas of our lives and health and often we don't even realize the how and where, we just go about living our crazy busy life the best we can. 

Please take care of YOU.

Are You Patient with Yourself?

Simply, One Breath At a Time

A Wellness Moment for you today.

another - True Treasures

I know some days it's really hard to be patient and relax with all the to do's and thoughts racing around in our heads. 

So today I'm sharing a few lines from Simply, One Breath At a Time to give you some Wellness Moments to rest, breathe and take care of You.  

The photo below is of an excerpt on page 83, and you'll find the full meditation on pages 124-125 

It begins by offering us time to breathe, relax, connect to our self and answer a few of life's important questions and in the second last paragraph you'll find this ...

Enjoy.

"Celebrate your presence as you encourage the

breath to help you breathe freely...

accept this moment as a special place in time

to connect with yourself and the world ...

feel your life as an evolution ...

an ever changing masterpiece ..."

Resources - ebook available

**Here's how it ends

"Now stay in peace for a 
while longer and find a
place to breathe freely,
a place to be,
be you..."

Simply, One Breath At a Time © 2008 Dona Anderson

The title Peace came from using the first
letter of these words on page 125,
Presence Encouragement Acceptance
Connection & Evolution

Dona Anderson 2014.

It's me made, certainly not perfect. 

It's just to be for fun or to find a word for you to relax with and breathe for a few minutes.

There's approx 50 words.

YES - One word IS missing its last letter - maybe more oops - only had so many squares.

Enjoy!

Links to Share below.

How this got started - 

I was at a wellness show years ago and bored as no customers were there only us vendors walking around. 

I didn't have a cell phone or other devices to play on, so I started playing with words and squares.  

I got this crazy idea and soon I had the lots of ideas that later needed to be worked on. 

It kept me busy at the Time!

Until next week,

Thanks for your visit.

What crazy things do you do for fun?
