Actually, because I am on sabbatical, so is Wilda. However, not one to not do anything at all, I am on a sabbatical that involves personal work … on myself. What a concept!
For some time now, I have been talking to women about self-care based on the premise that we are to “love our neighbors as we love ourselves“, and yet how many of us do a good job with the loving ourselves part? Not many of us, and in fact, not me. Since I started my own company, I have been spinning my “to do” plates in circles on top of tall poles and now they are falling down, causing my health to suffer. This is cause for pause.
Without going into all the sordid details, over the next six months my job is to restore my physical health, rebuild my immune system, strengthen my body, renew my spirit, return to the Sacred, find my voice and allow my creative spirit time to dance. I am writing about my journey in my new blog, www.thebluewoman.wordpress.com. Please join my pilgrimage as your time allows. I am open to comments and questions, and invite you to read along.
Namaste.
Melissa
