Take a Moment

Any time you feel the need to decompress

You’re at a beautiful destination next to the ocean.  Take a moment to sit on the beach and soak in the view, the breeze, and the natural beauty that surrounds you.  Sink your toes into the sand.  Take big, long breaths.  Meditate if you wish.  Reenergize your soul before you leave to go home.
