A Love Letter to Meditation
Some love is instantaneous. That first glance across the room. That first interaction that brought sparks. This love lightning can find us with people, activities, places, food, songs. I definitely fell in love with chicken parm at first sight. And the process of making pasta by hand. And with a raspberry macaroon I had at a fancy bakery. Okay, so maybe I fall in love fast with good food and food creation. This I know about myself, and is a love I have continued to foster over the years.

Nowadays, the working class has so many responsibilities, both at work and at home, so we tend to forget one of the most essential aspects to our well being and performance: quality sleep.

It's no surprise that as parents of a one-year old, the days are long and filled with taking care of Kayden, working, household chores, prepping for the next day, and countless things to do.
