We are so glad you are here! Getting started is easy. Make a post letting us know who you are and where you are starting in your journey. Some will come in struggling and that is totally okay. Others have some practice with helpful experiences in finding balance in the chaos of life. We are here for it either way. Just for funsies - let us know what your comfort drink is. For me it's hot chocolate and herbal tea (depending on the day).

Good Morning! I am more than halfway through this experimental reset week and day 3 and 4 had a bit of everything in them. Day 3 activities were intended to get me out in nature so I went to a local park for a walk. Sunlight provides vitamin D which helps with sleep rhythms and lowers cortisol stress hormones. Being in the fresh air in the woods watching the birds and listening to the water without my phone for a little while helped me step out of some of the depression and anxiety symptoms I've been having. It wasn't complicated or expensive, but it made me feel more at ease. You might have noticed by now that all of these reset activities are designed to be done in less than 2 hours so they are micro doses of relief spread out over days. Day 4 was my "tiny adventure" day. I wanted to do something (free) that I've never done before and try somewhere new. I ended up touring a historic home in my area. That might not be everyone's cup of tea but I enjoy history and it was a beautiful property so I enjoyed it and that's the point. I also went to try a new place with bubble tea and would you believe my shoe broke as I was walking in? Ha. I haven't worn heels in months and the first time I pull out the 3 inchers, I almost died lol but it gets better. The boyfriend doesn't necessarily understand all that is going on with me right now but he wanted to be supportive in his own way so we got tickets for the local baseball game last night. Not only did it get rained out but we made a run for the local pub across the street. Our mistake? Parking in the lot behind the building. We ended up walking through flood waters up to our knees just to get inside! Drenched from head to toe and buckets of water in our shoes! He screeched and cussed until we got out of the rain. But you know what happened next? We laughed. and laughed. and laughed some more. I don't know the last time I laughed that hard or we laughed that much together. That, my friends, is why I would highly recommend a reset ritual. When was the last time you got out in nature or went on a tiny adventure of your own?
