“Life shrinks or expands in proportions to one’s courage” Anais Anin

Last weekend I had the pleasure of speaking at a wonderful women’s event - the Ultimate Pajama Party, where hudreds of women enjoyed great food, great friendships and wonderful entertainment at the Jasper Park Lodge (great location!)

Looking around the room on the Friday night, it was wonderful to see pure joy on so many faces.  It’s a wonderful soul fix that is so hard to get any other way - time with just the girls.  No dishes to wash, no dinners to make,  just you…and only you and your nearest, dearest friends.  Laughter, freedom, commaraderie…and smiles so big on everyone’s faces that you just knew they were having the time of their lives.

Every fall, I go for a weekend away with my 3 dearest girlfriends.  We meet on the island and spend 3 days, laughing, sharing, spa-ing….reading, sleeping…running…whatever brings us enjoyment.  It’s such a special time for me.  We are longtime friends - since High School and although our lives are all very different, it’s just like yesterday when we see each other again.

Soul fixes, girlfriend time, time to yourself - are all important to your wellness.  Our lives are busy and full - and sometimes we get lost in the noise.  Make sure you take some time for you - in the big picture it helps create perspective and reminds you of the things most important to you in your life.
