How Do you Keep Going?

One breath, then another, then another. How do I keep going? Ask the question; stay open to the answer. Lisa Olivera

I recently had to give myself a pep talk about carrying on despite the challenges, I wrote down my "How do I keep going" list-

Here are my top ten

1. Remember my ancestors - going all the way back, coming all the way forward- all made sacrifices and endured conditions, situations and environments that I cannot even fathom to experience.

2. A weekly beach routine - drive to the beach, walk on the sand, go into the water, watch the sunrise- there is beauty, chaos, calm, change, miracles. I am reminded of the sacredness of life.

3. Walking down the river on a Sunday morning, passing through the bamboo, seeing the sun peek out from the bamboo- pure magic

4. A rocking playlist with dance grooves - put that on and dance like no one is watching.

5. Early morning journaling - pour it all out on the page.

6. Talking to the people who just let me be - let me be me
