BDS Reflection

My BDS today was all about getting everything I was thinking out and off my chest. I think most of us find that extended amounts of time with extended family can be quite stressful and that stress can mess with our heads. So my BDS may seem sporadic but it was a much needed venting session. The deep breathing, meditation and yoga we did in class helped get me in the right mind to express my thoughts. I planned today by simply stating what topics were on my mind. Then, I began to see a pattern, ways they connected, I had something best described as the clichéd moment of clarity. Following my plan led to a much more fluid and readable writing. The word vomit became word regurgitation,  something not entirely good, but a step in the right direction. The breaks helped me stay focused and on subject, keeping me from rambling off into obscure thoughts. I found it so helpful in fact, I took two shorter breaks to gather myself and readjust for comfort.
