After many many years, have finally managed to turn Sunday into a personal Mini-Zen Retreat weekly. I even pull off that day of silence occasionally. It annoys the Shelby-Cat...lol
She is very chatty...and can't seem to understand why if you aren't talking back to her.
Sunday looks a lot like this now:
Meditation
Exercise/Yoga
Morning Tea or Coffee (usually with Facebook)
A Big Country Breakfast
Journalling
Reading
Meditation
Nap (usually with the Shelby-Cat)
Sunday Dinner (mid-afternoon "Heavy Like Grandma Used to Make" with a nice dessert)
Creating (with clay...paint...writing/blogging...a virtual mini-adventure ...cooking or crafts)
Outside (playing in the plants..weather permitting...walking or just sitting outside a while)
Journalling
Reading
Exercise
Spa Bath (candlelight,salts, scented oils,bubbles and lotions)
Meditation
Herbal Tea & Bed
Differing from an away retreat as, obviously, I still enjoy a little of the connectivity of the computerized age with my morning cup...and do not forego caffeine.
You would not like me Decaffeinated.
I do take a break from the World News...trust me...it will STILL be there tomorrow. I do turn off the phone. I finish all housework on Saturday, but the dishes I use during the day, Sunday- and wash them immediately after using them.
I usually stay in silk pajamas...although I have been known to throw on a stand of pearls and (maybe) perfume with them.
Sunday is definitely a Bra-Free Zone.
I find it is the perfect way to relax and start the new week.
Refreshed,Relaxed and Organized.
