Feeling this. I’m simplifying my life as much as I can, too. Thanks for sharing.

Great points! So glad you switched to Bookshop.org too. It’s so important these days to remember to escape some of those places that can quickly get overwhelming when need be.

Btw, in your opening when you mentioned taking your kids “tubing”, my first thought was river tubing (I grew up in Phx and we had “tubing down the Salt River” as a thing when I was growing up. Talk about me projecting. ☺️) Glad you had fun!

Ah yes! I should have specified snow tubing :) Tubing down a river is much more relaxing!

I love this post so much — what a beautiful (and very NOW) reminder of what’s important. The feeling “everything is yelling at me” really hits. I’m doing some of these things already but going to explore more - thank you 🙏🏻

Thanks for reminding me to breathe! It helps ... I know the experience you are talking about, it's like a reset of your autonomic nervous system, very powerful!!
