#MondayMeditations Cultivating Yourself While Sick

Filed under: cultivate,Monday Meditations — Tags: — Meredith @ 11:00 am January 23, 2012

I’ve been suffering from my first infection of 2012 for the past six days. Working outside the home makes it fairly difficult to get the proper rest and self-care that I need, but overall I’ve made it a point to drink as much fluids (preferably warm) to flush my system. While at home, I’ve made sure to sit down and rest when I can — of course, having children makes that a bit difficult, as well. However, I’ve done incredibly well. I discovered that I love gingerbread spice tea (and unless I get a paid for endorsing the brand, I leave it to my readers to figure out the brand name). Yesterday I took a wee bit of my energy to clean up the bath tub and treat myself to a relaxing soak. Some times when I’m sick, a good soak in a tub filled with warm water calms me down and sucks out the illness. It may only provide temporary relief, but it certainly is nice to just relax in the water.

  • I’m craving a hot shower right now, but I’m trying to get so much work done. Thinking of you. I’m convinced this is going to be a huge year for both of us. I’m about to SEO the Rentable Me site. I’ll keep you in the loop!

  • I hope the soak did the trick and you are feeling better by now.
