Checking in.

Imagine this is your best friend checking in on you. How would you answer? 

Sometimes all we need to do is slow down long enough to really hear ourselves and we immediately know what we need and what we'd like to focus on. 

Sometimes even when we slow down everything feels chaotic or overwhelming and it's hard to really focus in on what might help or who could support us. 

One of the easiest (and hardest) ways to reconnect with ourselves is to breathe. Yep, that simple and also that difficult. When we take slow, deep breaths we're opening ourselves up and that can feel vulnerable. Maybe there are feelings we're not quite ready to experience or thoughts we're not sure we want to look at too carefully. Maybe we know the tears are right there waiting and it feels like too much energy to let them out. 

And maybe that might answer the question of what you need: a safe space to practice being vulnerable with yourself; the time and the energy to allow the emotions and thoughts you want to process to move through you. 

Regardless of where you find yourself this Monday, the invitation to rest, reflect and reconnect is always open. I hope you give yourself the gift of accepting it.
