Rest
I cannot believe the importance of rest. Last week was such an incredible time of rest and peace for me. I had a break from school and all my work responsibilities. I planted a garden and worked the soil. I got more sun exposure last week then I have had since last September. I was reading Maragaret Feinberg's blog just now and she mentioned the ripple effect of the lack of sleep. That when we don't get enough sleep we are only a pale version of our true selves. This week I am going to work hard at getting enough sleep and being very intentional about. God bless ladies and happy reading and sleeping.

Ah sweet sleep! So true. It amazes me how often we over look it. While in my internship I had a checklist of things I had to do to care for myself. One was sleep for 8 hours. I kept track of my sleep debt requiring naps to catch up on sleep if I was "in debt". It was one of the best things I could have done. Also a fun little fact. Sandalwood essential oil is supposed to help your body naturally produce malentonen (have no idea how to spell that:). I had some on my wrist last night and slept like the dead! May your rest be blessed.
