to remember:

exercise. -go for a walk. go for a run. yogatoday.com. 30 day set of exercises. tibetan rites. just do a set of push ups, sit ups, and/or squats.- relax. -deep breathing for 10 minutes. guided meditation. write. change thinking pattern. -gently redirect thoughts. ask if thoughts are based on fact. replace with more factual statement.- interaction. -turn off computer. call old friend. remember that a journey of 1,000 miles begins with a single step. you don't have to do it all now, you just need to take a small step. find a class you'd like to take. go to citypages and see what's going on (drawing club, reading, lecture, rovers activity, yoga class, time out classes).- food. -if not in the food to cook, go to seward. cereal. yogurt. put steel cut oats in crockpot. rice and frozen veggies. food can either help you or slowly poison you. ice cream bars (homemade or store bought).- get out of the house. go for a walk. go get coffee and read a book/do crossword - espresso royale, common roots, victory 44, black dog, donut collective, lake of the isles, mia. something to look forward to: create list of things to can/preserve.- be kind to yourself. you have people who care about you. you have a long way to go, but it doesn't happen all at once. you are okay. you are enough and you have everything you want already inside you. you will get there.
