When this happens, and this is the time of the year when it is the worst for me, I have to remember to take time to meditate. You might just want to call it “quiet time” if the word meditate is too weird to you. This has nothing to do with practicing an Eastern religion although I am not knocking that. But if I can sit quietly with my mind empty for twenty minutes, a calmness comes over me, and I can handle all the pressures of the day a bit easier. I highly recommend it if you are feeling like you might have more than you can do and feel yourself “getting all steamed up”. Maybe you only have time for five minutes, just give it a whirl. Let me know how it worked for you on the Prairie Quilt facebook page. I would love to hear your thoughts.
I'm a little teapot
Short and stout
Here is my handle
Here is my spout
When I get all steamed up
Hear me shout
"Tip me over
and pour me out!"
