Recipe for an Introvert (and Extroverts Needing a Break)
Dear Awesome Woman,
If you are an introvert in this day and age then the fast pace of life is even more of a challenge than it used to be. Self care is a must in maintaining grace and health.
How can you journey through your life feeling grateful instead of resentful, accomplished rather than defeated, and healthy instead of drained?
I have found for myself that there needs to be a continuous pattern throughout the day of inward energy, outward energy, inward energy, and outward energy. Downtime is the essential ingredient for staying centered and kind to myself and others, but to get things done, I intersperse that downtime with chunks of action.
Here is my Recipe for an Introvert—something I learned the hard way. I hope that it will benefit you and help keep your energy in check:
1) Wake up and do inward energy things like: meditation, contemplation, inner processing, conscious breathing, walking in nature
2) Do a chunk of outward energy activities: socialize, talk, play on social media, work, declutter, exercise
3) Take time for inward energy: do breath exercises, journal, process emotions, close eyes and rest, walk or sit in nature
4) Back to outward energy activities: work, talk, essential errands, to-do list
5) Return to inward energy through: rest, conscious breathing, meditation, reading something feel-good, enjoying simple creativity (collaging, doodling with watercolor pencils, charcoal drawing)
6) Sleep
All of the above can be mixed around, but with the continued pattern of inward energy, outward energy, inward energy, and outward energy.
Here’s to the Introverted way of being in the world 🙂
Enjoy!

Enjoy my recently released memoir, God Said What?! #MyOrthodoxLife. It was an 8-year long journey of birthing it into the world, but a worthwhile one indeed to share this tale of love, humor, faith, and Kabbalistic mystical happenings.
“I picked this book up on the recommendation from a friend and once I started reading, I couldn’t put it down. Miriam’s memoir of her journey to find faith in God’s love and the wisdom of the Torah is set to the backdrop of connecting to romantic love. The way she wrote about her struggles to find and accept faith, it felt as if she was pulling me right along with her and I was somehow blessed with a piece of her hard earned wisdom. While I am not of Jewish faith, I felt deeply connected to what she shared. And in the final chapter, her call for everyone of all faiths to do what we can to allow love to transform the world into a place of peace. It is just the salve I feel the world needs right now for deep healing.” – Sherrie Papa
