Welcome to this week's issue of Weekly Simplicity Tips.

I am taking a work break this week, so I actually wrote this a week before you got it. I hope you have some time on your calendar to relax this season as well.

The August class will be on maintenance, daily rhythms and habits to incorporate what we've learned into every day life. I don't have the class set up yet, but am interested in finding out when you would like the class to meet. Fill out this poll: http://poll.pollcode.com/ex8h9#sthash.2q9N9yPK.dpuf

1. Ask yourself, What is the best use of my time right now?"
2. Catch up on some paper pile sorting and actioning.
3. Keep track of how much TV you watch this week. Then review it next Monday.
4. Instead of complaining - deal with it or look for another perspective.
5. Put a container of water in the fridge so you can have cold water.
6. What is the most important outcome you want to achieve this week? Circle it on your to do list.
7. Where have your boundaries gotten lax?

How do you see the world?
Is it helping you make changes?

3 Steps to Renewal
http://www.mysimplerlife.com/blog/3-steps-to-renewal

Do you need a retreat, but don't know how?

Ask yourself: when was the last time I took time alone?

Have you been stuffing down feelings trying to keep it all together?

Do you want to escape your life for a little while? Does everyone seem to annoy you?

Do you feel hollowed out mentally, spiritually or physically?

Are you in the midst of transition and change? Or have a decision you need to make?

Perhaps you have felt you have lost yourself under stacks of to do lists and other people's expectations.
