Some easy ways to find your "island of calm": - Turn off your phone for an hour - Do not watch the news or read the paper for a day - Find a quiet place to read a good book - Have coffee with a good friend - Do something kind and unexpected for a stranger _Before you get out of bed, in the morning, remind yourself of 5 things to be grateful for These are just a few suggestions that might help you find your smile and your island of "calm". When all else fails...get a massage. It is the one place you don't have to talk to anyone, falling asleep is a compliment and it is all about you! Happy Father's Day!
