A Soft Explosion of Unforeseen Euphoria

Drawing helps me focus on something and block out negative thoughts. Bright colours have a positive effect on my brain and I like creating a little world on a piece of paper. There are parts of my mind that only drawing can access. #Drawing #MentalHealth #Autism #Depression #SocialAnxiety #Aspergers #Art #ArtTherapy #creativity #solitude #Anxiety #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder

#peace #solitude #Mindfulness

I’m fortunate to live in a place that blends in with nature. I like to be alone. I know what to expect, I don’t have to pretend, and I find peace in being able to sit in the mindfulness of nature.

Make a wish💫

Positive energy ✨.

My favorite things to look at can be found in nature. Flowers are my favorite. Delicate beauty. Does anyone have a safe place? If I had the chance, I’d build my own secret garden with a quiet stream. A hammock, the sound of the breaze, birds and water engulfing me in a safe and happy cacoon. Sigh… if only. 🌺🌸🌼🌻🌷🌹☀️🌈😴 #SafeSpace #safeplace #solitude #peace #silence #recoup #Life

Do something nice for yourself.???

Today my therapist asked me to do something nice for myself. Hours later I still don't know what to do. What options do I have?

Need for solitude #Depression #MentalHealth #Anxiety

Lately our home has been overflowing with guests and Grandchildren. All wonderful people but today I realised I had to get alone. I was completely drained and my tolerance levels were low.

Years ago I hated being alone, with a passion. Now I treasure being alone. It’s so different from loneliness. I know that I will end up cranky if I don’t get time where no one is talking to me or wanting something from me.

How about you? Is solitude something you loath or love?

Hope for better things to come soon

I’ve practiced yoga on and off for decades. I haven’t done any stretches before bed in a while. But after turning off the debate tonight, meditation alone wasn’t bringing down the pain sensation enough for me to sleep. I hoisted myself out of bed and did a very slow sun salutation. I’ve never felt the surge of #Connection , #Hope and #relief from practicing a few simple poses like I did just now. Felt so good, I decided to share, in the hope someone will do a couple stretches b4 sleep too.Peace . #solitude #Fibromyaliga symptoms #Yoga #Meditation

Late season flowers. #Reflection #Reflections #solitude

It's been weeks since you been home for the night. Planting these seeds happened a week before you left. An emergancy-bag turned into you moving out and telling me about your lawyer the same night. Your scent is slowly disappearing from our home, even in the bedroom. Yet these flowers grow before my eyes. You said it was too late for the flowers to bloom, but look at them grow. Maybe it's not too late for us.?. #Missingyou #missingpartner #missingmyheart #Divorce #WhereHopeGrows #Hope

James 4:13-15

Life inside
Grasp new reality
Not in control

Funny how this is felt as a new reality when one can find scripture expressing the fact that humans only think they are in control yet God’s loving hand shows them wrong....here we all are discussing the #newnormal yet we’ve never been in control...for me, this #newnormal is a reminder to give God the glory and to stop #whiteknuckling the day God has gifted me....if #god’swill allows us to sit inside then we get to if #god’swill allows us to work then we shall....#Godislove and what the globe is enduring is a form of His love...................
