Last night after bawling about the current state of the USofA and our black people. I decided that I need to decompress or de-stress my mind so I could try and get some rest when I go to bed.
Pondering; self what can I do to decompress? If I try to read one of the many books📚 I have I won’t be able to focus, if I try to journal it will only peeved me off more, just writing ✍️ about these snitch…
Decision time; me, myself and I decided to take a long bath 🛁. One whole Kenny G, (greatest hits album 2019), many different scented candles 🕯 burnt, two different mix of essential oils (lemongrass and lavender) filling my bathroom, bedroom and my sense of smell with delight and 2 hours later; I was officially a well ripened prune 😊 and ready for bed 🛌.
With my body including my feet well washed, I prayed, peed and went to bed….That did the trick. I got some sleep 🛏 💤 .
The moment I needed!!!

Lovely reminder to take care of self. So much is happening to us, around us, affecting us, that we oftentimes forget what’s most important. Take care of self. Take care of family. Leave the rest to the almighty.
Do share your candle fragrance/ preference.
Thank you for your comment.
We defiantly need to care for self in order to keep caring for others.
Candle fragrances, roasted chestnut, lemongrass & ginger, lavender, citrus peony, island nectar, cherry blossom, strawberry & ginger. If I had to chose, lawks don’t make me, ok…. the lemongrass/ginger & lavender. I love anything with lemongrass. I use the oil in my fragrance pot..
The things that we can’t change or have any control of just leave it alone and take charge of what we’re in control of. You did just that……love love love the setting girl❤❤❤
Exactly so…thanks girl….❤️❤️
