A Moment Of Zen
Gazing out into the deep blue, watching waves undulate endlessly into the shore, listening to water splash, gulls cry, wind whisper across dunes... a moment of peace.
Take time to soak up the season - literally, by stepping into your own luxurious summer afternoon scene, or when you seem to be too busy, take a few moments to close your eyes and imagine this scene - or a favorite, peaceful spot. Take in the sights, the smells, the sounds you might hear - step into that moment - breathe deeply.
Always remember that we can create moments of tranquility anytime we need them. The next time you notice feeling stressed, take a moment to center yourself, close your eyes, slow your breathing, and imagine your favorite beach day - what would it look like?
