The Journey to Good Health
For the last few years, I have been on a mission to get healthier. My main focus has been just learning to relax. When I did the exercise for this unit, I did manage to relax a little. I find it very difficult to take time for myself, even if I know I may deserve or need it. Over the last couple of years I have undergone three surgeries. I have had both my knees replaced and this summer, I had surgery on my back. So I know I really need to make time to give my body a chance to heal. However, I have an 11-year old son who was diagnosed with autism. So it has been difficult to take care of his needs and my own. I understand that to have good health, you must also make sure your mind is in good shape. Which takes me back to relaxing and trying to make time for myself. I will continue to forge ahead and know that at some point I will get a breakthrough!

Wow. Sounds like you have dealt with quite a lot recently. It is impressive that you are continuing to embark on your journey of education. I have four little ones and it was not until recently that I realized that by doing for self I am not being selfish. Allowing myself the brief amount of time to do this exercise was a great gift to give to self. I hope that you find some more time for yourself as well. Thanks for sharing this with us.
