Our extended family are all on our annual trek to Lake Lure (about 25 minutes from Ashville) ~ we all rent houses and spend a week at this incredibly beautiful place.  It is a great place for families.

I did not want to miss posting on my blog and while I was relaxing I found an amazing list of 10 Thoughts on Whole Living done in September, 2005 in the Whole Living ~  Body and Soul Magazine ~ a magazine I heartily recommend, by the way.  Enjoy!

10 Thoughts on Whole Living

 

Imagination is a sense, not a gift.  We all have the inner genius to create.

Touch is a powerful healing tool; use it lovingly and often.

Think of money as energy; use it to empower, not control, your life.

A simple cup of tea can teach us the importance of ritual.

Give deeply ~ whether it is noticed or not.

Find something sacred in your day, every day.

A daily walk can reengage your body and mind.

Before summer’s end, connect your soul to the earth with a healthy, bountiful feast.

Allow your body to unwind every evening.

Passion does not get lost ~ just abandoned.  It’s never too late to find it again.

 

The only addition I would add to this is:

Make an annual trek to Lake Lure with you and your loved ones!
