Making it Through … by an ARK Client

This Nasty Virus, by ARK Intensive Day Program Client

A day of rest

Became longer, longer, and longer of rest

For keeping us safe and sound from the

Nasty killing virous that came along,

making the whole word sick and many died.

Listening and following the instructions and stay inside, wearing masks and isolate self from the world.  Keep yourself safe.  The world is scary at this moment of time.

Everything stops!

Took a halt in life

Just to stay safe!

Time to think

Time to Breath

Time to rest

Time for ME time

Time to get to know your inner self

For some, become closer with your love ones live in your homes.

Take deep breaths and smell the fresh air,

Let each breath cleans your body out.

Sit out doors on your balcony or in your back yard,

Smell the clean fresh air and flush the toxins out of your body.

Smell the May flowers!

It is time to sit back

Read a book

a Take long and short walks and listen to the beautiful sounds of nature.

Listen to the birds chirping and the tress swaying in the wind. Listen to the wind. Hear how the leaves sway in the wind. Close your eyes and listen carefully and listen to what sounds you can here. Relax!

With your eyes, see the beautiful green grass and flowers blooming.  Look for wild life, see their beauty and the colors of the leaves, flowers and birds. Smell the beautiful fresh blooming flowers! Spring is here, so are allergies!

Enjoy the quiet around you. Feel the peace!
