How do I deal with the stress of being in the hospital for 6 days? With three surgeries and a week long hospital stay over the past couple of months, I was completely burned out. When I finally escaped the hospital stay, I headed to Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon to try to decompress. Not eating for a week, at all, definitely caused lack of energy on my part. But, seeing the beautiful mountains and staying in an amazing cabin, rejuvenated me. It was a great time for reflection and trying to sort out all of the happenings of the past couple of months.We spent a lot of time sitting by the creek, taking short walks, laying in hammocks, writing in my journal and napping. It was such a relaxing and quiet trip. So unlike any I have ever experienced and it was AMAZING!
I came home ready again to face life and hopefully start with a new renewed strength. Now, if I can just stay healthy and put this all behind me, I would be very very grateful!
