CENTERING
Just for Now, by Danna Faulds (eyes closed?)

Just for now,
and without asking how,
let yourself sink into stillness.
Just for now,
lay down the weight
you so patiently bear upon your shoulders.
Feel the earth receive you,
and the infinite expanse of sky
grow even wider
as your awareness reaches up to meet it.
Just for now,
allow a wave of breath to enliven your experience. Breathe out whatever blocks you from the truth.
Just for now, be boundless, free,
awakened energy tingling in your hands and feet. Drink in the possibility of being
who and what you really are:
so fully alive
that when you open your eyes
the world looks different, newly born and vibrant,.
Just for now.
-Danna Faulds

Dear Paul in the dark,
It's okay. I'm here with you. I love you. We got this. The level of darkness is not a sign of how permanent the darkness is.
Love,

Brené Brown & Karen Walrond on Accessing Joy & Finding Connection in the Midst of Struggle
https://brenebrown.com/podcast/accessing-joy-and-finding-connection-in-the-midst-of-struggle/
1. How can I feel connected today?
2. How can I feel healthy today?
3. How can I feel purposeful today?
THINGS I'M REMEMBERING
Five things really helping me right now:
1. PW: It's just a little thing
   CC: Little things add up: colander!
2.   PW: But, I already DID slow down!
   Inner Wise One: Slower, still.
3.   I don't like feeling this way.
   CC: There is value in not feeling good. Can you sit with it for a minute?
4.   PW: I don't know if I can handle it.
   CC: Uhm, you are handling it. You're here.
5.   PW: Once I get past this speed bump, then things should be better/smoother.
   Inner Wise One: There is no pain-free or problem-free life waiting for me, even though I deserve the idea of both.
