Happy New Year

Happy New Year!   As we leap into a winter wonderland of snow it is a time to reach for comfort meals.   This Chicken Ramen Noodle Soup certainly ticks all the boxes!   With a few simple ingredients and some leftover chicken it is an easy meal during the week.   Sometimes you just need a comfort meal when it is cold outside and when life is challenging you.

 

As I continue my grief journey into another year, I cannot say it has been any easier.   It is a challenge for sure and the holidays are always especially difficult.   It would be easier to get caught in the hustle and bustle if I came from a gigantic family..that would be quite lovely.   Some things that have helped are the new 10% Dan Harris app.  So many guided meditations, and talks with really great meditation teachers serve as a great resource when things seem difficult.   As always returning to the breath and taking time out in nature if even for a brief walk helps reset your nervous system.  

 

Finding moments of joy in your day...eating that special cookie..petting your cat or dog...all slowly help create a bit of space for your healing.
