Hard time back in Richmond

Dear Beth,
 I've had a rough time adjusting to my new old life.   I wanted so badly to feel "normal" being back in Richmond. I realize now that I have to create a new normal.  I don't have stamina and so my normal work day wore me out and it was HALF of my normal work day.

 I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. I don't know if I'm exercising too much or if I need a change in diet or my medication adjusted.  I hope she can tell me something that I can do to get stronger. Until then, I'm concentrating on staying calm and serene in the face of circumstances that would normally stress me out.  I'll start back with Shealy SELF-HEALTH Day #31 tomorrow.

  One thing that I have learned about the SELF-HELSTH days is tht the discipline of stopping and taking 40 breaths is the most important things. It hardly matters what the words are.

In peace,
  Cheryl
