"There are no ordinary moments." ~Way of the Peaceful Warrior
{this moment} - a Friday ritual. A photo (or few) capturing moments from the week. Simple, special, extraordinary moments. Moments I want to pause, savor and remember.
Served up with the weekly {Smile-Up} - gratitude practices to love and appreciate your life.
If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' and 'smile up' in the comments for all to find and see.

Lessons of the week:
Women's bodies are sooooo complex! So much learning to do and things you can do to regain balance in our physical and mental bodies. ☀ Speak only words of kindness about others--when we speak negatively about someone, they can feel it across the strands of the Universe. ☀ Patience. ☀ Respect yourself to say "no" when you don't want to do something. Respect yourself in general. ☀ Wanting time for yourself shouldn't make you feel badly or guilty! ☀ Stop procrastinating! ☀ Remember everyone is going through something! ☀
Hope you're all having a beautiful wonderful blissful week! Hope you enjoyed your last day of summer and are welcoming fall with an open mind and heart!
What are you grateful for this week? :)
