Self-Care Journal: Day 1 ~ June 12, 2011
How “team THRIVE” does SELF-CARE
Isabella: I done some wii fit training, and more yoga and some belly dancing just to blow of some steam and energy. Been reading a bit, fixed my feet (pedicure) and took a long Spa-shower just to feel like a swan princess. I guess the next thing I will do is cuddle up in the sofa with a bowl of ice cream and some episodes of LOST 🙂
Living with bipolar: I pampered myself, did some housework, worked on my makeup studio, made a slideshow….ohhh and my husband cooked me dinner and cleaned up =)
Julie: I have recognized that this past year, I have completely changed my environment to that of peaceful surroundings with loving friends and family. I’m enjoying it mostly. Might go to the beach today to sit by the water and do some “rock picking” to find agates and other little gems to make into jewelry I can sell. It’s therapeutic…the water and the rocks and jewelry making.
Jen: I’m starting a new job today, one that’s in the field of the degree I just graduated with, and one that I hope will be challenging and fulfulling to me. It’s been my first full time job since diagnosis, wish me luck!
Norman: Hanging out with my son, daughter-in-law and my new twin granddaughter.
Kelly: I have tried to keep my environment calm, and utilized my creative side xx
Julie: I ended up going to the park near my house with my daughter and my two grandchildren. We had a picnic. My two year old granddaughter found a group of girls to play with and when they left, one of them came to say goodbye and they hugged and gave each other a kiss. My 11 month old chubby grandson smiles almost constantly. We sat in the grass and I fed him snacks. We went back to my house and my g-daughter helped me plant a garden. Then we had shrimp scampi.
