I’m so glad you’re here. I’m so glad you’re taking a moment to pause and put the worries of the world on hold for a moment.

Yes, we all need to keep doing things to stand up for our neighbors and advocate for what matters to us and be better humans. 

But we also need to practice rest, and renewal, and reflection, and self-care. 

This week I am so privileged and blessed to have a weekend set aside for my own education and renewal. And to share a bit of that spirit with you, I’ve created a meditation for you today. You’ll find it here. I hope you can find a time today to pause and focus on the here and now. Keep resisting – but also resist the temptation to do so much that you remain depleted. 

Take good care. And if this is useful, don’t miss a future one. 

And consider passing it along to a friend who could benefit this week. 

If you find this beneficial and would like some support in developing additional mental fitness skills, I’ve got you. I invite you to set aside a time with me to see how saboteurs are keeping you from being both efficient in what you do and happier than you realized was possible. Head here.
