Have you had a hot date recently? I know I have! So far, I’ve had two hot dates this week (and my husband has had one). How can that be, some of you may be thinking?
Well, how it all started is really kind of funny! My husband has been having his hot dates on Tuesdays for a while now. It wasn’t until recently I started having my own hot dates on Tuesday nights too. We’re not together during these times, rather we’re having hot dates of our own. He leaves the house while I stay at home.
Tell me more…
Okay, you see the story goes like this.
My daughters have been going to hot yoga on Tuesday nights. This has become part of their routine. I’ve went a time or two in the past, but it’s mostly my husband that joins them. I think it’s great! Health, wellness, healing, caring for your body, mind, and spirit!! Imagine how surprised I was when I heard he wanted to take classes (and then he did and is still going)-Whoa! Never know what path life is going to take you.
As for me and my hot date, I don’t have to go far. All it takes for me is walking downstairs and getting in a nice hot sauna I had heating up for a bit prior to going in. In a sense, I get to chill out by myself and still get hot and sweaty (our sauna is set around 140 degrees). This is my quiet time and space. The house to myself for a little while. A much-needed moment after working all day. Quiet the body, mind, and spirit. There are times when I listen to podcasts, other times I sit quiet, listen, and just be. Then there are moments when I write or read blogs. So much encouragement, hope and ways to be inspired!
God is always with me. I seek Him and talk to Him as I know the importance of making room for and time spent with Him during my days. From longstanding pain, woundedness and the ultimate desire to wholeheartedly forgive, to those filled with unconditional love, compassion, peace, and joy, He knows my heart and exactly what it needs. In all circumstances He is leading me back to Him. I am reminded of His goodness, His love. I can drift off into a peaceful slumber knowing I have a Heavenly Father who is watching over and wants what’s best for us all.
