These Corona times

#Repost @iamruthjames with @get_repost ・・・ Is re-parent another name for self care? Sure it is. Whether one had attentive parents or not, we ARE responsible for meeting our own needs as adults. • Sure, I have decades behind me of putting others first ... sometimes for good reason! Children? Yup, four of them who always came first. • But you know what? For as well intentioned as that was, I didn’t get enough time for myself, and this INFJ has always required a lot of alone time. • Now I get a lot of that and sometimes more than I’d like but I STILL need to prioritize self care that doesn’t equate as health care! I eat well and make sleep a priority because of my health. But time outside, time reading fiction, time writing, exercise, being in water, and breath work feed my soul. So I’m indulging myself. Reading like a wild woman, sitting outside in the cooling air, listening to the birds and the trees. walking dunes, spontaneously going swimming (spontaneity is a newly acquired skill,) and doing meditative breath work. Ahhhh ... call it what you want but it’s soothing. It’s good. • #selfcare #danishapiro #inheritance #sleep #eatrealfood #breathwork #nature #spirituality #byebirds #canadiangeese #tarot #yoga #tarotforselfcare #journaling #infj #adoptee #alanon #aca #recovery #parenting https://www.instagram.com/p/B1-uW3DH-3A/?igshid=m02xztoypi0y

DAY 142: #selfcare BREAK-TIME 🌿🌿🌿 #dance #dancerspose 🌿 Those of you who know me know I’m the queen of time management, pomodoros and planning my day. I even schedule my lunch breaks. I used to be someone who was mad spontaneous and over committed to everything. These days I live by a code: C2C #camino2completion and so even playtime gets scheduled. I know it makes some people in my life crazy but if you wanna get with me you gotta schedule it. That includes texting. Back to my book. 😘🌿Aché. #prayerpose #breathingexercises #formybrother 🌿🌿🌿 ✨🧘🏾‍♂️🙏🏽#morningmeditation #goodmorning #yogisofinstagram #yogapose #prayer #Namaste #writersofinstagram #wocyoga #yogaeverydamnday #picoftheday #yogaeverywhere #writingrituals #mindfulness #manifestation #brujarituals #blackgirlyoga #writerslife #stretching #summerreads #bookstagram #danishapiro #memoir

The mind is a monkey, hopping around from thought to thought, image to image. Rarely do more than a few seconds go by in which the mind can remain single-pointed, empty. #DaniShapiro I definately have to meditate more to calm down my monkey brain. What kind of meditation do you practise❓ #monkey #aurangdabad #eloracaves #india #meditate #practise #banana #monkeybrain #sitaindia #travelindia #reisen #indien #wanderlust #monkeylove #catchooseshappiness
