I took an unexpected break from blogging this week (deep breath). I knew that I would be away at the National Association of School Nurses (NASN) conference this week. My intentions included finding quiet moments each day so that I could write blog posts. Obviously, that did not happen.
What did happen? In addition to hearing relevant and current clinical information, several session speakers spoke of:
deeply breathing and resting;
taking a sabbatical for the soul and balancing life and living my priorities;
asking for what I want and remembering to laugh and being grateful.
So, I breathed deeply and prioritized rest by:
enjoying conversations with friends and colleagues;
opening my eyes to beauty all around me (like the vibrant colors in the garment and jewels below);
laughing and learning and connecting;
breathing, deeply breathing...
The result: I am dreaming big and opening my heart wider and thinking of the pathway of purpose that has brought me to today.
In sharing my reframing project with friends at the conference, I found that many of them are also reframing aspects of their lives. In my next post, I will share how my dreams are reframed.
What areas in your life are you reframing?

Hi Donna, the idea of reframing intriges me. I believe I should reframe some of my relationships. For me this means different interactions, not necessaryly responding the same ,and always minding how I trod through life. It is so easy to get in a rut and then seek quick fixes for satisfaction- not what really satisfies.
