Nature Appreciation

and Gratitude:

I've been chasing this butterfly with my camera all week...
finally:

... and one for Food awareness:


Delicious:)

DAY 4 AND 5:

I did Blissology Thursday Quickie - partially. 
It is my favourite segment :)

Meditation is something I need to practice... It's not something that just comes to me...

Day 1 - Blissology Challenge

Sprinkler in the Sunset
Yoga - Monday Quickie from Blissology Project
I'm always reminded how good I feel after a few minutes morning yoga...

Meditation - from same
(needs a lot of work... the mind keeps wondering...:) )

Nature Appreciation -
I know, I promised pictures. I tried. Uncooperative flock of Crows took off before I raised my camera :)
It would have been a real cool shot... almost  Hitchcock-like.

Gratitude and Food Awareness:
It kind of went hand in hand today: I realized that I have access to such a variety of food...
I'm also aware that such an abundance is not always a blessing... We don't need cherries in January - but I surely enjoy them NOW!

Wild card:
I'm writing that card right now...
:)  It's so true - hand written cards matter so much more than e-cards, e-vites etc.
It's becoming a lost art.

Can't Slow Down - We Need Those Challenges

Bike riding attempts continue...  Not much improvement... I figure if I do it enough times something will sink in...

I admit:
I'm a Challenge-junkie, if there is such a thing...

I loved the Blissology project. I got up at the crack of dawn (oh, what am I saying: in total darkness) to do the workshop, in January. Eoin Finn has a wonderfully positive attitude and great yoga classes. When I found out about the current 28 Day Online Challenge, I just had to join. I have not decided on the starting date but I'm definitely going ahead with it.

Here is the list:
Yoga - I miss my regular practice. I need 20-25 minutes a day... it makes me feel better.
Meditation - a tough one. I am open to it, but find it difficult. However,  I'll keep trying.
Nature Appreciation - No Problem! - I'll just post my photos... :)
Food Awareness - :)
Gratitude - It's there, not always verbalized, but it is there.
