And on the 7th Day...

"Stress is basically a disconnection from the earth, a forgetting of the breath. Stress is an ignorant state. It believes that everything is an emergency. Nothing is that important. Just lie down." ~ Natalie Goldberg

Last week, I had an emotionally and physically demanding week. On Saturday morning I woke up after a full night's sleep, feeling drugged. I puttered, (more like dragged, puttered connotes some kind of energy), around the house in the morning and had a 2 hour nap in the afternoon. On Sunday I spent the morning dreaming and planning a trip to the Charlottes and the afternoon sitting at our Yale property staring at the Fraser River and contemplating not much of anything. And it was good.
