Nurturing Thursday- Healing
https://beccagivens.wordpress.com/2018/11/01/nurturing-thurs-recipe
O, there are moments when we half forget
The rough, harsh grating of the file of Time;
And I believe that angels come down yet
And walk with us, as in the Eden clime;
Binding the heart, away from woe and strife,
With leaves of healing from the Tree of Life.
~Alice Carey, “Harvest Time,” c.1847

Nurt Thurs – A healthy self-love means…
Becca inspires with her lovely post- Nurt Thurs – Who is Your Editor?
My take-
“A healthy self-love means we have no compulsion to justify to ourselves or others why we take vacations, why we sleep late, why we buy new shoes, why we spoil ourselves from time to time. We feel comfortable doing things which add quality and beauty to life.”
– Andrew Matthews

Nurturing Thursday- Teachings
Written for Becca’s Nurturing Thursdays
“Solitude is used to teach us how to live with other people. Rage is used to show us the infinite value of peace. Boredom is used to underline the importance of adventure & spontaneity. Silence is used to teach us to use words responsibly. Tiredness is used so that we can understand the value of waking up. Illness is used to underline the blessing of good health. Fire is used to teach us about water. Earth is used so that we can understand the value of air. Death is used to show us the importance of life.” ~ Paolo Coelho
Nurturing Thursday- Live in the moment

We start to live in our thoughts and all the joy that can only be experienced in this moment become unavailable to us. ~ Sadia Saeed
walk when you walk
talk when you talk
listen when you listen
read when you read
eat when you eat
savor the taste
the list is too long
so whenever your mind
roams away from
whatever you were doing
just breath
and bring it back
to this very moment
