Summer is coming to a close this month, so now is the time to take the opportunity to feed yourself and your soul with all those things that you love about summer. Living in Canada, we crave these summer months that are filled with sunshine, warmth, and longer days.
We all know that a self-care practice is something that we should incorporate into our everyday living. But more often than not, our care comes at the expense of taking care of others. Often it just doesn’t occur to us to do something nice for ourselves or we simply don’t know what to do.
The summer flew by.
The speed at which it moved makes me think that I didn't find the time I needed this summer to be still, to reflect, and to pause. Although busy, it was filled with good times, socializing with good friends, playing with my kids, a long road trip and time spent at the ocean. It was good, but it flew by.
Recently I had the opportunity to spend a few days by myself at a comfy cottage in the woods nestled beside a rustic lake.
