My day begins in gratitude for one more trip to visit my family of origin. Our time together is precious as my brother returns today to his home in St. Louis. He has done an excellent job of caring for my mother since she left the hospital 12 days ago and is on the mend.
 Staying in my yurt, I follow the well worn patterns established here over the many years. Early awakening ensures time for my yoga practices which help me stay centered, healthy, and well balanced. Having done so, I look forward to relieving myself brother’s “Watch” as he refers to it, especially as the home health care team kicks in.
What helps you stay centered for family time? Have you established healthy patterns to stabilize your body mind spirit for integration and regulation? Ki to Happiness holds her head high and breathes freely and deeply, staying connected to the guidance and direction of the Higher Self in all times.
