[ENG /ESP] My perfect plan to drain the stress of everyday life. // Mi plan perfecto para drenar el Estrés del día a día.

The week... If you remember what caused you stress all week? I would say almost everything! Getting up, making lunch, taking care of the kids, the husband, going to work and dealing with so many things day by day, adding to that a generalized stress because of the pandemic, turning on the TV and watching horrible news, there comes a moment when we say Enough!

I am honest, that moment of explosion comes very often, however, I understood that, as women, having so much pressure on us, we need at least one day a week to drain that energy that many times is ours and others we are collecting from all around us.

What do I do? Let me tell you.

My "ritual" is not very complex, but since they are things that I like (therein lies the importance), I do super well. First I make my special tea, ginger, cinnamon, lemon and honey, just the smell of the ginger with the honey calms my mind.

Then, I go to my backyard, I have a lot of plants, fruit trees, flowers, orchids and I enjoy them very much. With my tea in hand, I do something that I never liked before, but once when I was very anxious someone recommended me, they told me to walk barefoot on the ground! At first I thought oh I don't like that, but I had to try it and yes, it is magical.

I walk around my yard barefoot, drinking my tea, mind blank and touching every tree, every plant and it is amazing how this simple fact, that I have always had so close to me, renews my energy, I receive from the plants a beautiful energy of gratitude, their devotion to us and the place we each have in this universe, all connected. Together.

I encourage you to look for that magical place, special because we seek it, our moment as integral women in search of a pause and renewal of energies. A heartfelt hug.I encourage you to look for that magical place, special because we seek it, our moment as integral women in search of a pause and renewal of energies. A heartfelt hug.
