Wonky

So some people in my family say I've gotten all "Zen". A coworker excitedly said to me, "Ooooh, you're into all that stuff? You're "wonky" like me!" This caused me to check Urban Dictionary because the coworker was in her twenties, and I just wanted to be sure what "wonkiness" truly entails.
Is it good that I'm "wonky"? UD says "weird, whacked out" but the traditional meaning is "off-center". I'll take that- perhaps a bit "off -center" if viewed through the traditional lens, but not at all so if you ask me what my wonkiness has gotten me.
"Wait! What do you mean tiny bird with a big song? How indeed, are you wonky?" you ask.

Simply put, I've been working on my inside. Starting my day with a leisurely coffee, some personal development and spiritual reading with a wee bit of meditation and some sun salutations on the side, just to wake up the outside. I like where all of this takes me. I'm less stressed and find more joy!
I'm all over the essential oil diffusing, and do I want a Pink Himalayan Salt Lamp? You bet!
I haven't "saged" my place yet, but have been told the wonders of it by fellow "wonky" teachers and actually have the sage ready to light.
Wonky works for me- are you wonky?

  1. I'm in between! I have a salt lamp and I know it could technically not do anything but it makes me happy to see the orange glow.

  2. LOL. I am just starting to get into some of these things myself and am finding that they provide such calmness that I haven't experienced in a long time. I have been reading about 'mindfulness' and actually just ordered a book about 'mindfulness' in the classroom. I think wonky is a good thing!
