@Faeryschild OOOhhh I like this <3
Today was a good day. I took my dog on about a 6mi hike. Usually my mind feels kinda hazy and it's hard for me to be mindful but while out hiking I had a moment of clarity. It felt really peaceful. :)
@happycloud7o9 That sounds a lovely time you had together and dog walking can bring lots of calm as well as some happiness and a smile. I enjoy taking mine to the beach when I need that moment of clarity. Im glad you were able to find some peace for yourself today :)
@dancingRainbow45 thank you! A beach walk sounds lovely too, if there were one closer to me I'd definitely do those too. Hope you are doing well today too! :)
@happycloud7o9 sounds good. Im glad you have had a good day with you, your dog and the elements.
Reading your post has really reminded me of my need for the outdoors (esp. with my two k9s ☺).

I'm feeling really good right now. Mostly because of this calming spray thing that I tried. But also because I just got 100% on a psych quiz, and every other psych quiz this semester I've literally missed ONE question. So yay me 😄
@BeeLeigh sounds like you are reaping your efforts and hardwork. I mean, that is really something! Well done ☺.

thanks Watermelon 😊
I managed to really challenge sabotaging my own efforts to heal these past days.
I would just like to say that I got 100% on Part II of the unit exam for music appreciation, and I only missed 1 out of 60 questions for Part I of the unit exam for music appreciation 😁
Now, it's almost 2am for me, so I'm gonna go to bed :P
