With summer almost upon us, it’s time to begin thinking of a tune up if you have not already. No, not your car (you’re using that less anyway, right?). I’m talking about you. Your body. Your soul. I was reminded of this with painful clarity after a morning round of “playing Danny Phantom” (if you don’t know, don’t ask) with Corbin finished with me on the floor. Ice pack under my neck. And as I sit and work this evening, going on six-hours straight, it occurs to me that I am not doing such a good job of walking my talk in terms of the whole Sustain Your Self mantra on which I am regularly asked to speak. With shoulders up to my ears, and neck-oh-so-tight, I vow that tomorrow I will make an appointment for some acupuncture with my favorite integrative medicine specialist Susan Fox, of Balance Restored. She’s also one of our EcoMom Experts and well worth a visit if you’re in the area. For tonight, I’m off to go do some stretching and deep breathing in my candle lit living room.
