Overcoming Stress and Anxiety

I received an email with some really cool pictures of Icebergs in Lake Michigan. I thought that as a change of pace from all of the anxiety and stress we deal with in every day life, these pictures might help to relax and calm us.

Icebergs in Lake Michigan sometimes have stripes, formed by layers of snow that react to different conditions.

Blue stripes are often created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with melt water and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form.

When an iceberg falls into the lake, a layer of water can freeze to the underside. If this is rich in algae, it can form a green stripe.

Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the lake.

I hope you enjoyed this nice relaxing change of pace from all of the stress and anxiety we deal with every day and remember that beauty is all around us. We just need to look.

You are Awesome!!!

Talk soon…

Keep Moving Forward!
