reading (ideally a novel you just-can't-put-down)
spending time creating… something (blogging, journalling, painting)
spending time in nature (e.g. walking in a beautiful forest or watching the sun set)
laughing & loving family & friends (chris & muki, my sister & her family, my mother & grandmother)

1. Meaningful work: whether it’s schoolwork, work on myself, cleaning my house.
2. Moving my body: dancing around my apartment, going to an exercise class, lifting weights at home.
3. Love: Appreciating my friends, my family, my significant other (appreciation can take the form of an e-mail, phone call, sex haha)
4. Nourishment: good food, healthy food.
5. Lots of laughing and smiling. As little drama as humanly possible.

1. Music
2. Activity with friends
3. Reading
4. Making dinner with my husband
5. Long walk with my dog
I didn’t include food and sex – just like I didn’t include air and water…

I would wake up and jog to sunrise ( I’m not yet a runner so this would be sublime), I would return home and before the baby woke i would write in my journal and mediate on good things and then browse the net and be inspired. I would put on good morning music and then have special play and feeding time with my son. We would then take a stroll downtown and say hello to strangers and get breakfast at a little cafe. Then during his nap time I would work on something creative. My husband would come home in the afternoon and we sped the evening talking, laughing, we’d eat dinner together and then perhaps watch a movie. The babe would be put to bed, I would grab a book and read and sleep and look forward to doing it all over again.

My things:
1. Become a habitual runner/swimmer/yogi
2. Journal & Meditation
3. Inspiration via the web
4. Good music & quality time with my son (no TV)
5. People. Hustle & bustle. My camera.
6. Creative outlet of my daily choosing
7. Quality family time and laughter shared with my Loves
8. A good book
9. And yes, great sex.

I cheated a little by going over five but this would be a day filled with my necessities. I’m a stay at home mom and my good days look a lot like this. I am blessed.

Movement: yoga, dancing, a walk, a run, making love, swimming, kayaking….something that is loving to the body

Sensual pleasures: some fabulous food, one of my favorite teas, some music that inspires me to move or be creative or drop within myself, a lavender/geranium bath, all experienced in a sanctuary of an environment free of clutter, full of space, splattered with color and beauty

Creating and giving: offering myself to a project that inspires or offering presence and love to people throughout the day

Add in some writing, reading, and a massage every few days and I’m in heaven.

I would pay deep attention to those things that feed my soul and make me a happier person to be around! yoga, afternoon naps, preparing and eatng fresh raw foods would definitely top the list. Essential also would be reading, playing MY kind of music, studying to expand my consciousness and taking time out in nature to just oak in the beauty of the world and feel privileged for the life I can choose to lead.
