I'm a bit late with my planning this year. I think I spent so much of July and August saying 'let's do that in September or let's get together in September' that I have found myself ridiculously busy! Did you see my previous post about my week of networking and my week of outfits? Anyway, lets get onto the matter in hand. I love to reorganise myself in September and October, I still feel like it is my new year despite not being so governed my school terms now, I love autumn and after the summer holidays and summer months, I enjoy the feeling of 'back to school' goal setting. My priority this year is to learn to relax a bit more, to refresh and recharge. I do seem to follow a pattern of struggling with low mood and some depression at this time of the year and so self-care needs to be much higher on my list of things to do! So here is what I am up to right now to try and find a better balance in my life:
So that is what I am up to, very general this year but all very important. I do feel like I need time to recover. Sri Lanka was amazing but it did make me look at my own life and want to adjust a few things (read this post here) and it left me feeling quite tired both emotionally and physically - then to have a busy September - means that I have been struggling a bit. What about you, do you set new goals, do you have something you want to focus on right now? I'd love to hear from you.

Holidays can be quite exhausting because they give us time for reflection and contemplation. Today I was reading an article about elderly people in the Greek village of Ikaria. They live the longest anywhere in the world, and have simple but joyful lives, staying active until their 90s and beyond, socialising and running their smallholdings.Not to mention their Med diet and lots of olive oil. It's giving me food for thought.
