Do You Need Chocolate-biotics?

Cold weather got you down? Not seeing the sun enough these days? Tired already of shopping at those crowded shopping malls? Too much to do? Too little time?

I say it's time to take some time for yourself. Only you know how much time is reasonable, especially if you are the key caregiver to little ones. But, you need to take some time by yourself. If only a moment to gather your thoughts and just think in terms 'right now'.

I remember reading once that we actually age more when we are not 'in the moment', but scattered in ten directions, running full tilt, doing that crazy multi-tasking thing we women do so well.

And I see no reason why that sort of living shouldn't age a person. (At least that explains alot when I see those laughlines crinkling around my eyes.)

We have to slow down and live in the moment more than we are, or we're all going to look like old hags by the time we're 45.

We can start by being good to ourselves. A good book, a glossy magazine, a glass of wine, some fresh air, a bubbly bath (I can't have a bath. My bathroom is still in the middle of renos...), a hot cup of tea. (That you drink while it's hot...)

And if all else fails, maybe some chocolate-biotics are in order...

Figuring it out as I go,
