Sentimental Sunday!
I HAVE to share this all with you! We got this ground mat for our bed off of Amazon to support a better quality of sleep. BEFORE the mat, I would sleep lightly & had a lot of trouble sleeping through the night, as well as reaching deep sleep for more than 30min or so.
AFTER the mat- I get at least an hour of deep sleep every night, I only have trouble sleeping maybe once a month, and when I don't have to get up- I often sleep 10-12 hours and feel SO GOOD when I do wake up naturally! I'd say my only negative feedback on this is it makes it hard to get out of bed & function in daily life because I only want to be in bed 😆 I also attached my sleep tracking last night to show you all I'm not full of p**p 😉

Sentimental Sunday!
I found a nice lot of fabric, all in my favorite colors and I am attempting to make my first quilt using English Paper Piecing. I have 37 varieties for the front, and so far I've made 1 hexagon of each piece. I'll keep you posted on my progress here! I anticipate this to take a year or so to complete. Delayed gratification is a skill we don't have much of currently 😉
What do you do to pass the time, become present or mindful? Or to keep your hands busy?

Sentimental Sunday! It is Sept 1rst & fall is coming! What are your favorite fall activities & treats?
I love extra soft clothing (I don't like extra layers, but if they're soft it makes it decent), hot drinks/meals & fall leaves! Definitely looking forward to some cooker temperatures before it's cold enough that white stuff falls from the sky...

Sentimental Sunday's, the first one!

Pardon my face, but this Sunday, I want to highlight the modality of Chiropractic care & Dr. Ian with Level Up Health Chiropractic.
I see Dr. Ian almost weekly. He helps me with some spine curvature I have, as well as adjusting me when I have headaches, heartburn, or have been walking on concrete too much (which is what I do at the zoo, all day). There is also an abdominal lift that he can perform to help relieve menstrual symptoms. You can find out more at:

My dog, Kula also sees a chiropractor currently. She partially tore her ACL and Dr. Kari with Back Country Animal & Human Chiropractic. Combined with my Animal Massage & Reiki, Chiropractic care has been so much less invasive & more therapeutic for both my dog & I, as well as my bank account! I'm so Grateful for the network of professionals that keep myself & my family going. Contact Dr. Kari at: https://www.chiropractic-littleton.com/

PS Gillian also has a room in the clinic for Animal Massage & Communication. She was 1 of my instructors & I do recommend her as well!
