Be Resourced from Within
|
Take a deep inhale, and exhale it out slowly, letting something go as you do so.
|
|
Take a walk, touch the ground with your feet, observe a bird or another animal.
|
|
Take a bath or surround yourself with water.
|
|
Take a break. Put everything down for a moment and be still. Allow what comes inside of the stillness to inform and nourish your soul.
|
|
Listen to the wisdom that lives in your gut. You know everything you need to know. Trust your inner wisdom.
|
|
Look in the mirror at your own eyes and see into your soul’s longing and your soul’s calling. Remember that you are a child of God and born from Love.
