To recharge my spirit, I take a long walk in the woods alone. It’s quiet in order to think and process whatever is going on that I am struggling with.

Relaxing and praying with my husband
Very nice! I love that you pray with your husband. Me too, and I think it does really center me.
My favorite way to recharge is to just sit and think. I like to sit alone sometimes, just to give myself some space.
Ah, someone after my own heart!
If I spend some time enjoying nature it really recharges my battery and puts things into perspective. The world has a lot of beauty.
I’m with you, Jenny, I think nature really reminds me of what’s important in life.

My favorite way is to listen to music.
Sounds like a good plan. Thanks for sharing that, Denise.
To recharge, I like to go to my father in laws camp and relax with the surroundings of nature and no electronic devices.

I like to walk on the beach holding hands with my soulmate, we dont say anything just smell the salt air and clear our minds Thanks for the chance!
I recharge my spirit by watching the sunrise each morning while having a cup of tea in my porch swing. The beautiful sunrise lets me know that a brand new day full of hope and possibilities has begun.
New to this site, but I recharge my spirit by sitting in silence in nature and focusing on relaxing breath. It’s when I feel closest to God.
