Heidi Day

I had a slight break over the weekend.
It was nothing earth-shattering.
But there were tears.
And feelings that I had to feel and wasn't quite sure how to.

Yesterday morning, my sweet husband texted me.
"Are you going to work from home today, or are you going to take a self care day?
I told him I'd be working.
Then 11 am came around and I was done.
I messaged my sweet husband and told him that I was going to take the rest of the day off.

I went and had my hands, arms, and feet rubbed.
My good friends had missed me.
My nails all look very Easter-y now.
Then I went to the gym.
I walked.
A slower walk, not at a crazy incline.
Just walking.
Feeling my feet hit the treadmill belt just the way they should be.
I sat in the sauna.
And I sweat.
A lot.
I love the fact that I sweat a lot in the sauna.
I imagine it's all of the toxins and negative thoughts coming out of my pores, enabling my chakras.
Then, I went and had a facial.
Mostly what I remember about my day was that I had people touching me.
Kindly.
People were caring for me and my body just the way I should be doing.

The night ended with Mike and I going for a walk.

It was just what I needed.
