I am re-reading Thomas Moore's "The Re-Enchantment of Everyday Life"

#MentalHealth is important: My favorite way to begin the day is by sitting outside with my a.m. coffee, underneath a beautiful tree canopy, listening to the birds. My soul sings as the night sky gives way to the first light of day. My heart swells as I watch the squirrels play. I am at peace.

#WordyWednesday I have been sitting outside a lot recently, enjoying the cool mornings, coffee, and listening to the birds. This has become a favorite word.👇

In honor of my Welsh ancestors: This book, set in Wales, is about a young woman coming into her witchy powers. Considering all the crap going on today, I needed to escape to another world. And to paraphrase another author: I am the great-great granddaughter of a witch they could not burn.

I often work through my ups and downs by talking to myself because I live alone and don't have easy access to a therapist. This is a coping technique I am experimenting with. Comments are welcome.

I treated myself to coffee from a North Carolina family owned roaster, sat under a beautiful canopy watching the birds and squirrels, enjoying the fresh air after a thunderstorm.

Reread Louise Penny & Hillary Rodham Clinton's book "State of Terror". Even more disturbing than when I read in 2023. I highly recommend everyone read this book now!

Mental Health America published this book for young people (12-17 years old) struggling emotionally and unsure "Where to Start". If you know a young person, this is a great gift.
