I cope so much better with my day when I've managed to sleep. Plantar fasciitis is awful :/ I'm so sorry you had to suffer that too honey, a co-worker is dealing with it right now, bless her. <br /><br />I LOVE your latest post! Everyone should have a "calm" board. Even the task of designing and making one I'm sure can be enough to help distract the mind from all of the stresses that can so easily make our life so unpleasant. I have a mind that likes to torment me :/ Always have had, for as long as I can remember. I try to avoid upsetting things on tv, on the news, in the papers because my mind likes to play back unpleasant things like mini movies to upset me so I need to have a way of coping. Mine is a canvas we have upstairs which shows a sandy set of steps leading down to a lovely peaceful beach scene, I can stare at that canvas long enough to become lost in it :) Have a fabulous weekend dear wee friend, sending you heaps of huggles xxx Rosie's Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08607490839144049343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6756507668316918987.post-49651070651579133962016-05-12T17:34:39.510+00:002016-05-12T17:34:39.510+00:00Hi Rosie!!!

I really agree with you on sleep. It's amazing how a good night sleep can really re-set your brain and body for the next day. It's crazy how one bad night can wreak havoc on your whole day! I also really appreciated what you said about movement. I feel that unfortunately everyone in the U.S. (or should I say southern CA) has taken the whole movement thing to the extreme where we are obsessed with being "gym bunnies" which I find quite boring and unappealing. When I had plantar fasciitis in my feet I couldn't run anymore so I had to find other ways to move that were much more gentle. You can really harm yourself by over-exercising and that is so rarely discussed. It's not about appearance but more about getting those endorphins going like you said. :) And counting your blessings really does help to stay happy! Sometimes I just have to remember what I have and not focus on what I don't have. Thank you for this lovely list Rosie! oxoxoxHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17146959036685280439noreply@blogger.com
