I hope you are well and enjoying the sights and sounds of summer. I just returned from an awesome adventure in Acadia National Park. Such a beautiful place!
Everyone is so "busy." I've been promising myself that I would not use that word any longer, but the feeling persists when one has -indeed- lots of deadlines and things to do.
Every time I feel "busy," I remember this quote.
When we are running around feeling overwhelmed, the best thing we can do is stop and be still like the mountain. And from that stillness, we will reconnect to our Source and flow like the river. Because, instead of acting from a place of fear and scarcity, we will be guided by peace and ease. It's the forcing that wastes our time and energy.
Now, whenever I'm feeling overwhelmed with deadlines and to-do-lists, I make a point of grounding myself into stillness, scheduling quiet times or moments with people who ground and calm me. This is what connects me to my source, deep inside my sacred mountain, and from there I flow and trust that everything that needs done will be done.
When we become still, time takes a dimension of its own and molds itself around the course of our life.
Effortlessly.
When you go with the flow, you're surfing life force.. —Danielle LaPorte

Your breath directly affects your Autonomic Nervous System which regulates your state.
You can use this to your advantage when you're feeling too stressed or too flat.
Give these two breathing techniques a go when you're needing to alter your state.

Have you ever labeled the weather as bad or good?
"The rain ruined our picnic!"
Another way to look at this is that the rain ruined your expectations of what you thought was going to be your picnic.
When we learn to release expectations of what we think should happen we become more welcoming of what actually is.
Flow like H2O my friends!
Our health is our responsibility and it isn't a quick fix. Growing up I was a sickly child. My Mom homeschooled me for awhile because I missed so much. Asthma, allergies, bronchitis...oh my!
I was a human pollin meter. I was the strange kid who had to sit inside during recess so I didn't sneeze my head off.
All the doctors wanted to do was give me steroids but this made things worse. Throwing my whole body out of wack. Weight gain happened and then the social kindness of my peers showed through reminding me that I was less than because I had some fat rolls.
I state all this because I no longer experience any of this. I'm one of the healthiest people I know. I have been on a lifelong journey to better health. The one thing I have discovered is that health is our responsibility.
Eat healthy, move daily in a mindful way, get good sleep.
If you feel stuck I'm here for you!

An intention is something that you plan to do. This can be contrasted with a goal which is a planned future outcome. Intentions are more pragmatic than goals as you can control your own behavior but cannot directly control outcomes.
For example, if you want a particular promotion at work you can do everything right but the opportunity may still not present itself. Intentions are also used to focus on the moment as opposed to goals which risk thinking about the future so much that you miss out on your actual life each day.
How do you set intentions and when?

If you listen closely to the words people say, you can learn a lot about what's going on inside their heads. Your own words tell a tale. By listening to and analyzing the words you use on a regular basis, you can learn to stop unconsciously programming yourself to have limited performance.
