WAKE
Summer vacation from school is when I can get through a temporary slump by finding a way to tune in to a natural recharge.
Early, I go outside as soon as possible with a warm beverage and look at the direction of the sunrise for ten minutes. It tunes in the eyes and brain to the message that it's daytime and time to wake up. Light before 9 a.m. is beneficial. I got that message from an acupuncturist as a suggestion, but now it feels great. I am more awake, even if only for five minutes; doing it gives me amazing sensations and results.

I’ve also started being creative. A friend gave me a pad of good art paper, and I know that using colored pens (Lyra Aqua brush) is so popular and easy, so I started making artful doodles and making abstracts by doodling in an area of the size of about 3" by 4". I drew pencil perimeters and then created these within the boundaries. Now, I have maybe 20 unique pages of them. It’s satisfying, and it will be fun to think of places to use them. It‘s relaxing.
