Awakenings...

Namaste!

So over the past week I've had plenty of time to think and reflect. As they say "everything always happens at once". And this week it has been the health of our family. My husband is currently in hospital hopefully having his gall bladder removed, my toddler son has an ear infection and the flu, and I have also had a nasty cold. With all this happening I have been trying to run a business, keep the house maintained, and hold our little family together. Thank goodness my parents are staying with us for a few days until life returns to normal.


But with us all being unwell, (this is the first time we have all been sick at once) it has certainly given me time to think and reflect about life. It has been a kind of awakening for us all, especially myself and my husband. Looking back on life, I now realise that I have had many many of these "awakenings" or times in my life where things have gone awry and have needed to change. In fact within the last year I seem to have had a lot in comparison to the rest of my life, which I think may have something to do with all the energy shifting occurring at the moment.


This particular awakening obviously has more to do with our lifestyle and health matters. It has been a sort of kick in the bum from the universe I think, telling us that things really need to change at home to improve our state of health as a family. There are lessons with all that has happened this week.One being the obvious, that our lifestyle needs adjusting. Another being that more care and attention needs to be put back into our family life. As a family unit, the family "machine" needs all parts to run effectively. When one cog has broken it effects all other components, and the machine stops working. We certainly need to work more as a team and less as  individual components.

Hindsight is a funny thing. Looking back, there were obvious signs from the universe that our situation needed changing. But they were too easily ignored or not seen at all. But things really needed to happen this way. Our eyes needed opening widely to see the truth of what has been happening and now we can go about making the many changes we need to function better as individuals and as a family. The first change will be going on a health kick and bettering our way of eating. I know my husband is not looking forward to this. He rolled his eyes at me as I told him about the Weight Watchers treats I purchased for him. He will get a big suprise when he comes home hehehe.....

Love, light and spirit to you all....
