TIME OUT GALLERY
Words and images to calm
the mind and uplift the heart...
The best everyday mind/ body medicine is a simple 'time out'- how often we forget to stop for a break, to unwind a little and benefit from the wonders of simple relaxation. Even five minutes can work minor miracles!
I hope that these specially chosen quotes and images are soothing to your soul.
With love, Cathryn
