The best cure for me to stay fresh and passionate about life is to break the monotony of my routines and do something outrageous or out of the norm. I get too caught up in work that I have to remind myself there is more to life than working and relaxing.
It's far from taking sky diving lessons or bungee jumping, but this summer I left for mid-week silent retreat at a spiritual retreat center. The first few days were tough but by day 3, a peaceful calm took over me and suddenly those things I thought were important was just a blip in my life.
This weekend take a few hours to write a list of things you've always wanted to do. Then take bite sized steps to make it happen. Take a yoga retreat or class in another discipline, take a belly dancing class or climb that mountain. When our minds are open to new experiences, doors open to even better opportunities.
