I have been hit with a flood of creativity and it has me plotting out a new program for my clients and setting up some new paintings. Fall usually gets me all creatively charged up. It is a wonderful feeling. Like flying a kite. Letting go of control and simply playing in the elements. So I’m going to keep it simple this week so as to not overwhelm myself.
Day 289: A gentle miso soup with Russian kale, mushrooms and carrots. Soup was my favorite thing to make at the rehab. It’s simple, hydrating and very nourishing - so long as it isn’t cheese based or loaded with unnecessary sugar and salt, I’m looking at you Campbell’s. When it’s done right it calms the mind, the nervous system and the gut. Everyone can benefit from that, whether they are in recovery or not. However at work it got bonus points in my book for making everyone in the dining room quiet. I don’t mean that in a selfish or bitchy way. It was just nice to feel everyone at peace - at the same time. Even if it was just for a moment.
