Day 20 – Big life events

-


Today is about looking back at some eventful days and also for future events to happend. Can we prepare ourselves to be fully present when the day is here and what can be learned from previous days and the way they were handled? And how can we create events to bring more excitement in our lives.

If it's a new experience it must depend on what that is before you can know if any other events experience can be used that day. I think it is more of a different experience when it revolves around big emotions. How attached you are to the person or pet or what the natur of it is. Birth and death are two events that are never the same. So you may be able to prepare yourself the next time and find that some things are familiar to the last time. I can see it being easier when it's something practical in an event though....lol

Have something to look forward to. My husband and I decided a year ago to sell the house and make a life closer to his job. So we have made a vision board and put it on the fridge door. That way we see it several times a day and are aware of it. That keeps the energy flowing ;-)

I first heard about the vision board at my hairdresser and it sounded interesting, but I didn't make one myself at the time. But when I finished Reiki I suddenly saw a small article on it again and now we have made one. It's focus is on selling / buying house and moving and the dreams we want to fulfill at the new place etc.

For my hairdresser things suddenly started to happend according to the images she had put on her board :)

Here is the article and you can try to make one yourself: Vision board

Day 31 – Framework before work

Another challenge about planning better :) One area that I know can save both time and lessen the stress: groceries shopping!! In our household we didn't hav a car until our youngest daughter was about 17 (if I remember correctly). But we were able to borrow one to go shopping once a month. I made this list with the typical items that we normally used and went over what was need every month. Then, once a week, I would go over what was on sale for that week and make a dinnerplan thereafter. It didn't take much time to do this and we never had to drag tired kids to the store each day. When I was studying computer programming, it showed me how much you can save if you do the groundwork properly before you even start programming. It amazes me to see how much money programs costs today and when they break down, they are so poorly made from the start that it cost additional money and a lot of headache to try and fix it. Oh, I miss that type of work ;-)

Day 30 – Gardening

Pedram once again uses the garden as an example, when he talks about using it as a tool to relax :) You don't need a garden, place pots on the balcony or if you only have window space, great. The idea is to plant a seed and tend to it and watch it grow. Is the goal to bring out a flower to enjoy its beauty or is it going to be something you can eat? Both will recieve gratitude and even more so, because you have nurtered it from a seed :) When I was sick, I found it very relaxing working in the garden. Sadly I had a very low periode for a couple of years and everything more or less was overtaken by weeds :/ We have cleaned up and removed almost every flowerbed. When we sell the house we want to live where we can have wild flowers and things can grow more freely. Having a garden that is too neat can also turn on you and suddenly become a duty and the whole idea of stress relief is gone. So don't go overboard, just start with something small :)

Food

Some of the side effects from the meds is extreme dryness in mouth and nose and all my senses are working overtime. That means I'm very sensitive to smell and test. Topping that with nausea, eating isn't always easy. So I tend to skip my meals and just grab something in between. Not the healthiest way, I know. I have the sweetest husband who has taken over making dinner when he is home and he makes sure there are leftovers put in the freezer for me for when he's away for work every 2 weeks. I haven't been good at eating the meals, but now that is also going to change. So far I've had dinner EVERY day since he left about a week ago :)
