Conversation 24

Oodie, sorry you are experiencing some kitchen issues. Wanted to let you know my Mother had PT and Occupational therapy to the house. I think it was covered, as fyi.
Hope you have a lovely Weekend!

I still cannot sign in. I know you also enjoy playing in the Arcade. I am giving you and everyone else a head’s up. Be aware. Make sure you check and recheck the entire area. My virus software notified me that there were problems and I immediately ran the software which took hours.

I am having kitchen problems. I have not been able to use the dishwasher. When you open it, it smells soapy. The disposal does not run so will have it removed. Yes,I have tried the reset button and also tried turning the underneath area to no avail. For some reason it does not connect with the electrical. Second time this has happened. It’s under a year.

Had a phone call yesterday from the Rehab. Hubby started physical therapy again. From what I gathered they will be trying to get him to stand and maybe take a few steps. They will also teach him how to use his hands more. Sounds good. I hope he practices.

I will try to bring the piano today. Cool down, well sort of, begins today. Temps will remain high. But with less humidity. Take care. Stay safe.

Create a Soft Place to Land

Create a soft place to land in your home — a refuge from the stress of the day.

Our day-to-day demands can quickly take their toll on our well-being if we are not vigilant about caring for ourselves as best we can. One way we can ensure that we have an opportunity to relax and recuperate each day is to create a soft place to land when we arrive home. This landing pad, whether it is an entire room or merely a small corner of an area, can provide us with a safe and comforting refuge in which we can decompress and recover from the day’s stresses. There, we are enveloped in feelings of security that transcend other issues that may be unfolding in our homes. Our landing pads also act as way stations that enable us to shift our attention away from our outer-world concerns and back to our inner-world needs.

To create a soft place to land in your home, begin by scouting potential locations, or perhaps, your entire home is your landing pad in which case you may only need to declutter. Your habits can provide you with insight into the perfect spot, as there may be an area of your home you gravitate to naturally when you are in need of comfort. Any space in which you find it easy to let go of stress and anxiety can become your landing pad. A basement or attic, spare room, or unused storage area, furnished with items that soothe you, can give you the privacy you need to unwind. If you appreciate the natural elements, you may find that spending time in a section of your garden or outdoor patio helps you release the day’s tensions. Preparing these spaces can be as easy as replacing clutter with a small selection of beautiful objects that put you in a relaxed frame of mind. Remember to consider noise and activity levels when choosing the site of your landing pad. If you know that ordinary human commotion will distract you from your purpose, look for a secluded spot.

Your soft place to land should inspire within you the mantra, “I can breathe here. I can relax here. I know I am safe here.” When you return to your home after braving worldly rigors, you will feel a subtle yet tranquil shift occur inside of you as you settle in to this most personal of retreats and feel centered once again.
