I have a friend who watches Fox "News" - I can tell by the things she says. I have not checked in with her lately and I have never openly addressed her political view but I have always suspected how she felt. Another lifetime ago when I had twitter, she was on there too. I noticed she started following people who I consider - what's the word I want to use to describe them? - 'repugnant' comes to mind. I consider her a dear friend because she and I always have had good times together. I always hope she will - what's the phrase I want to use? change her mind, change her heart, change her beliefs. As long as she keeps listening to repugnant "news" "sources" I don't think she will. And that is a very very sad thing. I know there are millions of us in the US who have loved ones who are in the same cult and it is very very sad for all of us. Writing prompt: What secret beliefs you held? Writing prompt: How does your intuition guide you in your interactions with others who feel differently than you do? Today I can give from my heart: a mantra, a saying, an affirmation that speaks to me as well as speaks to you. Today I am thankful for my emotions. Crocus looking beautifully ethereal.  #writingprompt #wordprompt #secrets #crocus #friendship #intuition #ethereal #story #purple

Keeping in balance when you have a lot going on can be tricky. First, your physical self: make sure you drink plenty of water, eat nutritious food, and if you can, exercise. I really love QiGong, and I enjoy Lee Holden QiGong videos. A six minute morning routine from YouTube is below. Make lists to help keep things on track. Check off when items are completed. The Pomodoro method can assist with tasks and there are some fun free timers available online. The Pomodoro method is that you do a task for 15 or 20 or 25 minutes, then you take a five minute break. Writing prompt: Today I am caring for myself in every moment by: Writing prompt: Today I get done what I need to do today. I feel good about this. Today I am grateful for 6 minute Qigong routines : ) Today I can give from my heart: Appreciate beauty in little things. #writingprompt #SelfCare #QiGong #Practice #ADailyPractice #FromTheHeart #Beauty #Connection
I've become a fan of the PBS series in 'The Father Brown Mysteries' of late. I've always loved the Miss Marple and Poirot episodes and recently I've been enjoying Father Brown. Also savoring 'Howards End' - both the 2007 version and the 1993 version have wonderful characters and dialog and I never tire of them. The energy of virtual comfort food? Writing prompt: Where do you seek comfort? Writing prompt: What kind of energy are your comforts providing you? Today I am grateful for sticking to my tasks, the things I need to do and am doing. Today I can give from my heart: the gift of suspended judgement  #writingprompt #energyfood #FatherBrown #Mysteries #CozyMysteries #Comfort #Giving #energy
This was a project long in the making but well worth the effort. The moon journals and the Moon Gazing journals all got new interiors that I am proud of. When I took an art class back in 2016 about how to create a journal, the tools were very different. We can do so much more today, but the main thing is to find the tools that help you to be who you are in this lifetime. Writing prompt: Who are you? Writing prompt: How is who you are different in one or two main ways from the person you were at this time last year? Today I am grateful for the wonderful tools all around us. Find what works for you. Today I can give from my heart acceptance. Allowance. Listening. Attempts to understand. The Amazon journal description: New interior! 2025 update: A 90 day self growth moon phase journal which features weekly mood and energy tracking pages with icons checklist for wellness and self-care. Journaling pages for your thoughts, emotions, and for noting energy shifts during each moon phase. Meditation suggestions to promote your happiness, clarity, and personal growth.
