Friday Reflections is all about reflecting on the week by observing our senses. My hope is that this will be a gentle, easy way to tune into how we are doing and what we are experiencing weekly when journaling in general can feel so daunting.
Now, for this week’s Friday Reflections (with each sense as your inspiration, consider how experiencing it impacted your week).
Here is my sensory round-up for this week:
tasting :: oatmeal cakes with raspberries and pistachios, chocolate chip quinoa balls, taco soup, apple dip and apples, grapes, chicken wings, ratatouille.
hearing :: lots of cheering parents as I coached Happy’s soccer game on Saturday, You are the Everything by REM (one of my all time favorite songs), a really cool dream begin to come into focus for a Passion. Purpose. Plunge retreat client.
smelling :: Tangerine and Fresh Bergamot candle and chicken wings (yes, I smelled and tasted them this week!).
seeing :: Circle de Luz featured on the Melissa Harris-Perry Show and on our local NBC station. So happy to see the hard work of our volunteers and Program Manager, the generous commitment of our donors, and the amazingness of our girls get attention! Learn more about Circle de Luz here.
feeling :: Grateful. Grateful to have amazing teams in every space where I work– with Tami as we partner to offer the Healthy, Happy, Sane Teacher, the Circle de Luz leadership, volunteers and girls, at Triple Play Farm, at the university, and at home. I just feel really blessed to have the people I have in my life. Including you.
wishing/hoping :: for flow, for productive work time, and for happy, fun home time.
