Clearing the Clouds from the Mind

field2

When something doesn't feel right, I like to go for really long walks. Up till today walking was out of the question because it was just so hot outside. Now that it's finally cooled off I was able to take a nice walk with Zach and Starla and just meander around. A couple of months ago I was walking around my neighborhood and discovered that there is a random track in the middle of a field. It seemed like a cool place to do pics, since it's so bright with lots of green around. It may have been a little too bright with sunlight since I was practically blind after our little photo op. It's so hard smiling while you're staring at the sun...in case nobody knew that..haha

Well, I'm finally feeling a little bit better about myself, now that I have had a chance to get out of the house and walk and just think a little. Work has been a little more than stressful lately and I've been questioning so much, as to why I am where I am. It's hard to feel appreciated there sometimes, but what can one do?

Anyways, what do you all do when you need to clear your head and think about things?

  2. Just like you, I love to take long, quiet walks to clear my head! Summer walks are the best. Also, when I take my blog photos it's quite reaxing because usually I'll be in a beautiful forest with no one but myself. Perfect!

    I love your outfit so much: you look gorgeous!The ruffle blouse makes my heart melt, and you can never go wrong with a stunning floral skirt!

    Hope that you start to figure things out with work!

  7. I do the same thing. I'm so lucky to have a wilderness reserve steps from my apartment. It's always nice to get away from everything and just be with your thoughts for awhile.

    I love your skirt by the way, I never look that chic when I'm walking!

  8. I totally go for walks and runs when I need to clear my head...it works wonders doesn't it? I know what you mean about the heat though! It is killer!

  9. walking is so good for your mind and body. Lovely outfit, what a gorgeous skirt print! I tend to overthink myself so I usually go for meditation or yoga to clear my head but writing I've found helpful when I have something pressing on my mind I need to work out.
