Moreau Lake

Itook a much-needed mental health day today. Ahh! Such heaven! Imagine time in the morning to meditate; do my yoga; have a healthy breakfast; listen to lovely music; write in my journal; and then, over the course of the day, take three walks! This kind of self-nurturing is so crucial to mental and physical health! What a difference it makes in how I feel! I go back to work tomorrow rested and renewed and revived. I am so happy that I had the freedom to be able to take that time, and happier still that the woods are still there, still quietly going through their transformation, and still eager to envelop me within their fold. My husband and I walked at Moreau Lake State Park in Moreau, New York, and we chose to walk some of the trails into the woods. It was so uplifting to breathe the sweet pungent air, see the sparkle of the sun upon the lake, and listen to the calls of the Canadian Geese!
