Hello, beautiful human, this is your moment. You are not meant to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders. I see you carrying deeply your concern, your passion. This is what makes you human. And yet, when we slip into thinking we have to do it all by ourselves perfectly, our energy is drained. You are part of a larger ecosystem of care. You are not alone. And by caring for your mental, emotional and physical well being, you are strengthening that ecosystem. So give yourself this moment to be nourished, to begin to develop the internal resilience that is strengthened through a mindful pause. I invite you, if you can lay on the floor or get comfortable in your seat, let your body be supported, and as I walk you through this brief meditation, let yourself smile. This is a practice. You don't have to get it right if you struggle with internal criticism, let this pause. Let if you struggle with internal criticism, let this be a pause from the cruel internal narrative you're already doing it right. Just breathe.
