Taking the next step

Posted on

I have been lax in blogging and doing anything at all online lately. First because I was getting wrapped up in a new health-regime with long morning walks, eating healthy etc. Then because I did the opposite during the midsummer. My body can just NOT handle any amount of alcohol at all, I just need to deal with that and cut that out of my life forever or I am just fooling myself. I had a few drinks the evening before midsummer and felt like something the cat dragged in for 3 days after.

Todays card tells me not to beat myself up over it though but to just take the next step. A slip-up is just that and not a deal-breaker. This body is the only one I got and I need to take better care of it. What I also loved about picking this card today was what stood in the text-book: ‘We don’t need more out-of-body experiences; we need to learn to be in the body, here and now, attending to the needs of the planet’

So today I just keep at it, trying to do the right choices, eating the right things, be true to my own body and spirit.

  1. Beautiful card image to go with beautiful thoughts, Jeanette! I’m resonating with what you write here and find myself on a similar journey. Also, the Angel Healing card I pulled for the week ahead (check my newsletter) is very much about healing the body 🙂 Thank you for sharing! ❤

  2. Nice post that seems very much in line with what I’ve been doing and thinking. The older I get, the more I realize that what I used to eat and drink when I was much younger is not going to fly now. The harder part is realizing that my body can’t be forced to do what it used to do years ago. Two hours pulling up vines and briars is the most I can handle; if I try to do it more than that, I’ll need a week to recuperate! 😀
    ‘We don’t need more out-of-body experiences; we need to learn to be in the body, here and now, attending to the needs of the planet’ – great quote!
