calming
sometimes the clutter, mental or physical, simply gets too much to bear. then what? for me it's important to identify what works and hold it in store for those moments when every nerve of self seems to be outlined and pulsing with red aggravation. this morning I'm managing it, just, with a cup of tea, a plushy blanket, and writing it out. other times a good stiff walk provides the necessary tonic. washing dishes by hand, folding laundry, and baking things all serve to settle and square me. it helps to have a certain spot, away from the rest of it all, ideally with a comfortable chair, good light, and quiet--a work table would be wonderful-- a place in which to reconstruct my peace, piece by piece.
