I skipped day 19 as I did not have a chance to really dedicate myself to it. I may do it another day so that I have a complete month but I'm not overly concerned if I miss only one day.
Today's prompt is BREATHE. "Step outside today and find a spot to sit or lay down on the ground. Switch off for a few minutes. Stare into the clouds and sky and notice your surroundings.... Simply step outside into some fresh air and focus on breathing in and out. Fill your lungs with fresh air. Breathe deeply and slowly. Do this for as long as you need to and as often as you need to. Start thinking about making this a daily practice."
I did this while Alexa played on her playset. So I couldn't zone out as much as I'm sure Carly intended. But it was still very helpful. It was a huge contrast to the busy life, and my heart-pumping runs. It's good to slow down sometimes. Good for a grieving heart as grief can be so overwhelming that sometimes it is numbing at the same time as it is heartbreaking. I found this time-out to be refreshing. <3
