Let’s Do Some Emotional Visual Eating

Posted in Photography by daphsamphotographyandart

Well, that was a week to forget. These are crazy times and who knows how long this will last. Since it’s too hard to always get to the market at this time. I thought this would be a fun visual treat for all who can’t get to some sweets!

Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies baked by my husband.

“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.”

― Charles M. Schulz

I am a huge pretzel fan, so these pretzels with chocolate are too hard to pass up.

“What you see before you, my friend, is the result of a lifetime of chocolate.”

― Katharine Hepburn

Chocolate truffles with coffee beans! Two of my favorites together for an evening treat.

“Coffee and chocolate—the inventor of mocha should be sainted.”

― Cherise Sinclair, Hour of the Lion

A lovely chocolate pastry from the Four Season’s Hotel.

“May your life be filled, as mine has been, with love and laughter; and remember, when things are rough all you need is … Chocolate.”

― Geraldine Solon, Chocolicious

Enjoy your visual chocolate treats!

Posted in Life Skills, Macro Photography, Photography by daphsamphotographyandart

Faith, Hope, Wisdom, Courage, And Admiration

Which of these words jumps out for you? Don’t think about it, just look at the words and focus on the word that your eyes are drawn to.

Mine is courage.

For me, it’s the courage to wake up every morning and deal with the level of lower back pain. That will present itself as I get ready for the day.

Affirmation With My Word

I have the courage to greet each morning with a relaxed body.

Now you give it a try! See if you can write or say an affirmation with your word.

With the word you have chosen, here are some activities:

Put the word on a post-it note and stick it around the house.
For the artist, create some art with your word and keep it as a screensaver on your iPhone, iPad or laptop!
For the number of letters in the word, journal that many days on how that word is so important to you. eg. Courage has 7 letters so that will be 7 days of journaling.
Find a podcast or quote that is about that word.

Here are a few of my activities to show you how I used the word.

“Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim.”
― Nora Ephron
