I have always loved the beach! I find it to be tranquil and medicinal.
Though my life is full of happy things, I deal with anxiety enough to have to take a daily medication for it. At times, my anxiety is so bad, I can feel myself shaking internally. My skin will sometimes even begin to itch.
Anything can cause it to happen. I’m stressed out about something. I’m feeling overwhelmed and out of time on something.
I’m constantly on the go, never slowing down. My life runs in a constant like this. I’m always doing something.
Constantly working,
Constantly taking care of others.
What’s lacking in my life is sitting down and taking the breath I so desperately need to take for myself.
Last year was rough. I had to make the decision to leave my job due to the toxicity it created for me as an individual.
I was blessed to find my current job. For me, this new job is my daily “beach” spot. There are shades of blue on two of my walls. I love blue, but I love teal more. I decided after the last four rocky teaching years, I would embrace the blues and bring in the teal! Lots and lots of teal. All of my students can tell you what my favorite color is!
Teal is such a wonderful, calming color. It relaxes me and in turn creates a relaxing environment. There is a peace and serenity that exists within the color teal. I think that’s why, if you look hard enough, you can see it in the waves as they come to shore.
If you’re having a hard time, I highly recommend that you bring a little teal into your life! Embrace the teal! Embrace the calm!
As I go on this journey of creative word play, it is also my goal to help empower others. To help others reach their full potential in their lives. Follow me on Instagram @authorkgreene or subscribe to my website: www.ksbooknook.com to learn more about how you can empower yourself and help others!
