Great list of things we can do to reduce stress. Another tip is to mediate daily for 15 minutes. Doing this can deduce stress, increase happiness and provide more fulfillment in life.

Love this list. I would love to take that drive too…perhaps later this year…I will definitely be in the 2nd group, taking the time to enjoy the journey.

I can be very active and productive when I need to be, when I want to be, but most of the time I’m an absorber, one of life’s eternal tourists. Until I started to spend far too much time online, I was so present and engaged, I managed to expand the moments in my day by loving so many of the details. I enjoy my time online, but it’s not the same as being out there engaging with friends, family and nature. This last part of my journey’s been a bit bumpy, but better alive and battered by the bumps than reaching the end and realised I’ve been dozing.

It took a huge toll on my life to awaken me to it’s beauty. An abusive relationship that scraped me over the bottom of the sludge. When I had the strength to find in myself, who I was and what I deserved, beauty and joy could not allude me anymore. Now, EVERY day is a gift of joy.
Beautiful pictures Tess! I love bamboo trees, they are my favorite!

I hate say it, but I think I’m in both groups

There are times, like earlier this morning, when I can just soak everything in and feel at peace with nature (we live in the suburbs so most of the time, it’s eerily quiet).

Other times, like in the afternoon, I’m completely restless. I just can’t sit still and take in anything. Sometimes I wish the day could be over so I can experience the quiet of morning again.

I’m happy that you still have passionate memories of your trip to Hawaii. That’s a sign of true happiness

Hi Tess,
Hawaii is on our list of places to visit. And it just looks so lovely! What a place to really take in. And I think it goes to show – that which we get used to – we start to be numbed to the beauty that exists right before our eyes. Makes me think about what I’m missing in my everyday life…

And what a great list of stress busters. My wife and I will regularly go on walks, and it’s a great time for us to just connect with each other – and find a spot of extra peace in those days. Music is also a great source of stress relief for me – especially classical or instrumental.

Hi Tess,
This is wonderful ! Just the pictures put my mind in a vacation mode.
I started a jurnal just for happiness about two weeks ago ! I have to write at least 2 things that make me happy . And if I have more I write more. But never less ! Funny how just taking notice brings out all of the little things that you would have never paid attention to .
I love the say no.. Because I am not very good at it ! Just last week I wall papered my Mother inlaws home . Baby sat for a friend . Baked a dinner for a friend . And helped out setting up my sisters garage sale. And worked a 40 plus work week. This week after I help package a truck load of potatoes to hand out . I am going to be like the drug commercials and just say no !!! Ok I might say no unless it is really important. Oh yey I forgot my Mother is staying with us Thursday through Monday . While her apartment is redone. Ok maybe the next week I will say no ! EEEEKKKK Toooo Funny ! But definitely blessed !

Hi Tess!
Oh how wonderful to hear – Hawaii!!! I definitely hope to make it there someday!

I definitely go through life appreciating the all. And of course it wasn’t always like this and at the same time, I am amazed at how amazing it is today. I seriously am so in love with life and just adore taking it all in!

I think this is one of the biggest blessings – life and this world, no matter what…

Love the tips you gave too
