    Relief

    We all seek relief of some kind. My moments of self-care in a day get de-prioritized as I am distracted from one thing to another.

    I Believe You

    Those three words are so helpful to hear when I’m struggling with self-acceptance. As a child I wasn’t believed.

    Knock Knock

    Every time I ignore the knock knock, my reservoir empties more. But I found a way to ground by doing forest bathing.

    Three Breaths, One Commitment

    365 days ago, I made a commitment to myself. Every morning, I would sit in silence. I missed community. So began my Zoom meditation journey.

    Deepening the Reservoir

    I struggled for years following meditation rules, trying to do it right so as to reap the benefit others found. But I feared inner monsters.

    I am Present

    My body is a feedback system. I tune in every morning and get today’s forecast. Am I in my body? I feel my body sensations.

    Power Ripples

    At times, I have been so overcome by words, I feel violated. Words have energy and carry the same force and effect as they intend.

    I Take Action With an Affirmation

    Training my brain to stay in the moment is a day-by-day process. One little affirmation can change the direction of my thoughts.

    My Demanding Knot

    Maybe it’s a habit of worry. Maybe it’s my way of reminding myself I’m not in control. Daily I let go and bring in gentleness.

    Living on the Edge

    I worked in a job that required me to be focused at all times. I kept order in the office while my life was spinning out of control.

    One Day at a Time

    I feel so deeply it hurts to be human and at the same time the hurt is being human. Humanity is reacting. Humanity is waiting.

    If I Feel Lost I’m on the Right Path

    We're learning we are all connected. What more proof do we need than to examine our heartache for what is happening around us. It all hurts.
