When it comes to relaxing, my dog, Spike sets a wonderful example.
Right now, on this beautiful fall day, he laying by his tree, in the
sun, sleeping a peaceful sleep. I feel like joining him, but the lawn
chair in which I am sitting doesn't recline, and I don't want to go and
lay in the leaves under the tree, so I'll just close my eyes for a bit,
and see if I can relax enough to sleep. When I relax, I like to turn on
a good movie for a snooze, melt glass, lay down for a minute, do you
see a pattern here? I'm following the example of Spike who never lets
anything or anyone get in the way of his naps. I usually torch in the
morning when I am widest awake. When I finish, I go upstairs to check
email and check on Spike. This morning this is what I found. He was in
a total state of relaxation! He didn't even hear me come in the room.
I had covered him up before I went downstairs to torch. While I was
relaxing by doing, he was relaxing by not doing. Don't you just love
it? There are plenty of days that I wish I were a dog.
