I used to be embarrassed to say this, but I love salads (the food) and now, thanks to you, I also love them as a metaphor! :)

Last weekend I was camping and realized I felt such a feeling of dread that I wasn't enjoying myself. I certainly didn't feel relaxed, which is something spending time in nature should provide. I reflected on how I was feeling and why and realized that my morning routine is awful. I grab a cup of caffeine and begin with emails, then the news, then back to emails because they continually come in, then back to the news in case I missed something or wanted to fact check something. My morning, for up to two hours, has been spent consuming, most of which is negative and scary right now. I decided to change my morning routine. I still read emails (most of which I signed up for and interest me), but after that I do Pilates, and then have a time of prayer...all before my husband gets up. I already feel better and it's already gotten to be something my body reminds me of...and is becoming a habit.
