Continuing the story of Lydia and Me
We had an early start this morning, Lydia and me.
It was misty when we stepped out, and the spiders had been busy all night by the look of it. There were webs everywhere, finely woven and sparkling when the sun started to shine.
After our walk, I gave Lydia her breakfast and headed off to meet up with a friend.
We don’t meet often, this friend and I, but we settled into each other’s company quickly and easily, as only good friends can do.
Like me, she has recently suffered from anxiety, so we were able to ‘compare notes’. She’s found hypnotherapy a great help; I’ve found meditation works for me, along with affirmations.
“I choose to be peaceful and calm. Everything is unfolding as it should.”
I did a quick Google search and it seems that hypnotherapy is not usually available on the NHS, which means that it sometimes is.
I’ll stick with meditation for now, but hypnotherapy is something that I had little awareness of before and know a bit more about now.
We talked about a lot of other things too, of course, and I so enjoyed catching up with my friend. Then I had another good friend to go home to: Lydia of course!
Good friends come in all shapes, sizes and species. I don’t know where I’d be without them.
