I intended to share an image of myself today, to document my recovery. Then I decided I only want to share my best self with you.
My recovery has been rough... I will start to feel tremendously better, but then as soon as I attempt moving at my average pace, this infection strikes back with a vengeance. I woke up this morning in pretty substantial pain, and with very little energy. The bruises on my jaw that had faded have strangely reappeared, and I have a rash on my chest.
It's been hard, with all that's going on, to give myself the time and space to be still. Even when I am in full health and without the added stress, it's always been hard for me to find stillness. This is why I practice yoga rather than seated meditation.
Today, my body is strongly reminding me that gravity is law, and that despite my efforts to defy it, my body will obey. I have the choice to make this easy or difficult.
To make up for my inactivity online, I mailed out box sets yesterday. Every $5+ patron should be receiving a personalized package within the next two weeks. Above is a sample image of what might be found within! I hope you all enjoy.
It has been a beautiful summer.
How are you spending yours?
Be well!
XO.
