Day 4 Pilates | Lengthen & Stretch

“Each blossom still blooms in its field; each child still clutches your hand; each friend still lingers in your heart. 
And that, dear Pamela, is where time goes. 
Forever young,   The Universe”

I get emails from “The Universe” each week day morning. It helps shift my mind each morning through gratitude.

This message, stood out. As our babies grow, I appreciate our time together past and present so much more! I am grateful for these people we are raising and who truly are awesome! As their mama, being an example. Lifelong learning.

Family means so much to me and I know that has been my biggest pain point this past year. The government doesn’t have the right to tell me who I can allow into my home and when, they don’t. But, there are people who are genuinely afraid for their health. Which I have to respect. Just like I deserve to be respected for my viewpoints.

Time goes by so quickly. This may have felt like the longest year yet, however I truly do my best to look at the positives from this past year. Missing so many people aside… Focus on what IS within my control. ✌

The Pam I am today, is not the Pam I was a year ago. I am grateful for continued growth and love.

Day 4… Done!

Pilates is such an awesome work out. Truthfully after having an emergency c-section, my mind could still get psyched out that it was a weakness of my body. That I wouldn’t have strength in my abdomen. I do. I am gaining strength. I have been shifting over the past 4+ years! I’ve taken yoga classes during those years and they have helped me gain the strength I have now!

Sweet Dreams! For me, sleep is crucial! Tonight’s blend is a fav.. Air X, White Fir (or Siberian Fir) and Petitgrain.

For some people, me for example, I cannot use Lavender at night. It has the opposite effects for me, instead of calming and relaxing, my brain felt revved up. Petitgrain has similar properties to Lavender, with a completely different scent too! If you are someone who enjoys Lavender during the day, give Petitgrain a try! For me, I explain it as a smokey citrus. This blend smells wonderful!
