For this week’s inspiration, I didn’t have an idea until later on Wednesday afternoon. This past weekend I had the flu and have still been recovering and not feeling fully better up until today. I had also recently bought a diffuser for my room after being sick to try to make it smell nicer and revitalize the energy in the room. For my inspiration, I decided to spend thirty minutes resting in my bed with my eyes shut, but not sleeping. I turned on my diffuser with an essential oil that was meant to balance, energize and stabilize the energy of the room. I had just bought new oils that I was excited to try although I am unsure of if they actually would work or help to revitalize my energy and body. In these thirty minutes of resting my body and my eyes to try to give myself time to reenergize and let my mind wander for a short period of time with no distractions. I ended up struggling a bit at the beginning because I felt restless and kept moving around and wanting to get up. After five to ten minutes I finally became comfortable with resting and just letting myself sit with my mind and my thoughts. I ended up actually feeling very peaceful and like I spent my time well with this inspiration practice because I felt it was beneficial coming out of a sickness and also for mental health. I was able to just relax my mind and forget about any school work or anything else personal I had to do that day, even within the next hour after my rest. This was one of my more successful and exciting inspiration practices because I felt like I really benefitted from it and I will probably try to find time to do this more often.
