Social Security - June 18th

For the past couple of weeks I have been talking about the art of creating your own staycation. I’ve covered all the things you can do close to home; festivals, outdoor concerts, hiking, etc.

Now it’s time to talk about some other activities you can add to your staycation plans.

Today it’s all about the value and importance of staying connected, Wednesday, You'll get tips on hosting your own Pamper Party, Thursday, D.I.V.A. Downtime Directives, Friday, The Power of Habit. 

Recently I read that people who maintain close friendships and find other ways to interact socially live longer than those who become isolated. The article also stated relationships and social interactions even help protect against illness by boosting the immune system.

As we "mature" sometimes our social life diminishes. One way I maintain my social interaction is by participating in group called "Drunk on Beads." Initially, it started as a beginners jewelry making class but has evolved into a meaningful exchange with like-minded women (and one man). 


The class thoroughly enriches my life and brings joy to my spirit. I not only get to express myself creatively but I also get to hang out with a fabulous group of people every Wednesday.

 I encourage you all to make a concerted effort to stay connected and involve yourself in at least one thing you absolutely love. I guarantee the benefits are worth the effort.

It's a juicy week. Stay tuned!

Self-care = Self-love  

Together we thrive
