Whenever I am feeling a bit low I try to think of my happy place. The picture I took is of one of the best days I have had with my daughter and my fiance. It is my happy place! I recently came across this picture yesterday when I was looking through my photo files on the computer and wanted to share

Do you have a happy place? Is it a real place that you can look at a picture of or someplace you have imagined? How often do you go to your happy place?

My happy place is where ever I can sit and scrapbook. When I sit down with my scrapbook and get started I basically loose myself in it. I tune the world out. The firealarm could go off and I don't think I would notice. In fact last week I was scrapbooking and apparently my husband came in and said hi 3 hours later he walked in the room again as I was cleaning up and I said wow your home late! He laughed and said he had been home for a while and even came to say hi. I didn't even notice!

I really like to visit my happy place! I like to lay in bed and think about all the things I need to do the next day and imagine me finishing them all in record time. There I am on my weight bench finishing up a masterful 25 set workout or getting the garage cleaned out. It is a real wonder to me how it all works and how it helps my mind think that the task is already done. When I actually begin the task the next day my mind thinks: done, done, done. Then it's easy. Hmm. Is that consider a 'happy place' or is it just a technique I use, I am unsure now! :-)

I do not get out a whole lot. I am a stay at home mother of a four year old son. If I had a favorite sanctuary to go to I would probably choose a tranquil mountain range.
I have been to the mountains quite a long time ago. They can be very peaceful and relaxing.

Thats very cool! I like to think about the places that I have been to and escape to them when I am stressed. My mom and I don't get along enough for me to feel that way about her unfortuantly. But life does go on and I find my happy places where I can get them! One of my favotite happy places is sleeping in and being cuddeled up with my fiance, that feeling will usually stay with me all day!
