why I'm taking an official blogging break

Hello there it's been a while and in that while I've made a decision...to take an extended break from blogging.

On our recent travels I realised I was doing too much and it didn't feel good.

In fact it felt stressful. I felt anxious and like I was never really 'on top' of anything.

Something had to give and I decided the blog was one of those things.

I thought about my current priorities and decided that instead of blogging, I want to:

- write a book. Perhaps even bookS.

And...

- focus on building my husband's online gallery River&Sol as a solid business because I've always wanted to focus on building a successful business and the reality is without focus things just don't work as well as they could, simple as that.

Not focusing, scattering oneself across many things is a form of self-sabotage in a way.

So, I'm focusing and it is such a relief.

I love my blog.

I have loved blogging.

I will miss blogging.

I won't miss the guilt and worry that came with not posting for a while.

We'll meet again some day, perhaps here, hopefully through the pages of a book!

Until then, remember that good health is golden so treasure it and count all your blessings. Twice.

With love, Nikki aka The Wholefood Mama
