“Bloom where you’re planted” was a thought t “Bloom where you’re planted” was a thought that came up over and over this past weekend while at home on the ranch. There are countless reasons I love being at home, but one of my favorites is early morning walks with my dad. I get to spend time with my dad, have meaningful conversation and enjoy the beauty all around us. I found myself very drawn to the sunflowers 🌻 during these walks. And the fact that they didn’t choose where their seeds landed, but they grew and bloomed wherever they were planted. Regardless of where they were; along the bank of a stream or canal, maybe in the middle of a field, or on the side of the road, they stood tall in the sun and bloomed, bringing beauty to their surroundings. I think we can learn a lot from these sunflowers 🌻 We don’t always get to choose our circumstances or environment, but we can choose to stand tall and continue to grow and bloom where we are planted, sharing our beauty and talents wherever we might be. 🌻 As you start a new week, how will you “bloom”? 🌻 How will you bring positivity, love, kindness, and happiness to those around you? 🌻 How will you brighten someone’s day? #bloomwhereyouareplanted #mindset #growthmindset #positivethinking #personaldevelopment #bloom #sunflowers #shareyourtalents #smile #happiness #findjoy #lifeisgood #brightensomeonesday

FUN, PLAY, RECREATION ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ FUN, PLAY, RECREATION ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We are all familiar with these words and yet we often take them for granted because we don't truly understand the meaning behind them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~Fun – something that provides amusement, enjoyment or playfulness.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~Play – an exercise or activity done for the purpose of amusement or recreation.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~Recreation – to refresh by means of relaxation and enjoyment. To restore physically and mentally. To create anew.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We can agree that fun and play are enjoyable activities, but when we look at the word recreation, it should become clear that fun and play are needed not only for enjoyment, they are necessary for relaxation and for physical and mental restoration. They are just as important as sleep.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If we take it one step further, we can see that recreate also means to re-create or make anew. Recreation is a time for re-creating ourselves. It is a time to connect with our passions, our hopes, our dreams, our favorite things, places and people. It refreshes us and gives meaning to our lives. We remember what is most important in life – those we love and the experiences we share with them.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How often do you recreate or re-create yourself? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #recreate #recreation #fun #play #havefun #playoften #healthyliving #healthylifestyle #rest #restore #relax #rejuvenate #health

“A lack of play should be treated like malnutrit “A lack of play should be treated like malnutrition – its a health risk to your body and mind” – Dr. Stuart Brown – ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As you may have quessed, I'm pretty passionate about this topice and want to share a little about why play and fun are so important!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Growing up, life was supposed to be fun. Everyone around us wanted us to have fun. Our parents, family, teachers, leaders and coaches all encouraged us to have fun. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In school, we had at least 3 recess breaks per day to have fun. We had classes that were scheduled, like gym, art, music, for fun. Our parents threw birthday parties for us for fun.. We had regular playdates with friends for fun. And family holidays and vacations for fun. Throughout high school and college, we were encouraged to get involved in various activities, go to dances, attend sporting events, make friends and have fun.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Why was so much emphasis placed on FUN? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because research has shown that children who have friends, who play, and have fun tend to be healthier, happier and more successful in life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The same holds true for us as adults. Without opportunity to play, to recreate and to have fun, we become more uptight, more stressed, and begin to look at life as an ongoing uphill battle. We have so many tasks and responsibilities to accomplish that we are often too busy to spend time with friends or have fun. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Think about that......too busy to spend time with friends or have fun. When I catch myself saying that, I know it's time to re-evaluate my priorities to make sure that I have time for "play". Play is important. Play is healthy. And play improves the quality of our life.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “We do not stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.” - Unknown -⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tell me your favorite ways to PLAY.
I know life doesn't always go perfectly. I under I know life doesn't always go perfectly. I understand that challenges, trials and hardships arise. I realize that life situations can be difficult and that every day isn't always sunshine, laughter and full of fun.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But I also know that if you choose to reflect on what you are grateful for; if you make a conscious effort to focus on what's good; if you move forward with a happy spirit; things always work out.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I have had more than a few hardships, trials and heart aches in my life. But I have also always tried to focus on the positive through each of them. And while that hasn't always been easy to do, I have found that when I choose to be happy and positive, I find the strength to keep moving forward and that everything does really work out in the end.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #dontgiveup #moveforwardwithahappyspirit #keepmoving #mindset #positivity #behappy #findthepositive #lookforthegood #gratititude #thingswillworkout #health #healthylifestyle
