Sunshine in a Jar

This morning I woke up at 5 am and forced myself to stay still until 5:30 am.  Where does our energy come from?

I remember doing an activity once where I wrote down all the activities in my life that give me energy on green recipe cards and all the activities in my life that take my energy away on yellow recipe cards–I think it was from an Oprah webinar I couldn’t resist…curiosity leads to interesting paths.

Does my energy this week suggest that I have filled my life with green cards? Or is it from resting over the holidays?

Where does your energy come from?

I wish I could bottle moments like this in a jar and put a shot of joy in my tea each morning.

It’s about finding the right balance of energy, surrounding yourself with people you love, doing meaningful work, dancing as often as possible, singing in the shower, savouring each bite, being aware of the interconnectedness of everything, expressing gratitude, and seeing the world with love.
