I had such a sense of how it feeds me. I crave standing in it with the waves crossing over my feet. I have never felt quite that calm and at home. I realized how my body feels open and balanced in the waves. In the reality of every day life, it can be difficult to stay open and flexible, AND well balanced. So there will always be those times when life throws us curve balls or last minute changes. I know I will always make time for a Healing Touch session for someone newly diagnosed with cancer. No matter how overbooked my week is. \u00a0\u00a0<span style=\"line-height: 1.5;\">But standing in these ocean waves, \u00a0I knew what it feels like to be at one with myself, deeply connected and balanced. So I can \u00a0stay in balance when my life feels out of balance. In those times I need to pay extra attention to self care and make time for the deep quiet that I find so calming. And remember what it feels like to stand in these waves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/healingtouchwithcheryl.com\/?attachment_id=225\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-225\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-225\" src=\"https:\/\/healingtouchwithcheryl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/IMG_1215-2-300x226.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_1215 (2)\" width=\"300\" height=\"226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/healingtouchwithcheryl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/IMG_1215-2-300x226.jpg 300w, https:\/\/healingtouchwithcheryl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/IMG_1215-2-768x579.jpg 768w, https:\/\/healingtouchwithcheryl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/IMG_1215-2-1024x772.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When recently walking along the ocean, I questioned why I am so drawn into the water with the waves overlapping.
