HERE’S TO EXPLORING WHAT IT MEANS TO MOVE THROUGH EACH DAY
Here’s to exploring what it means to move through each day, in the way that you are able to. Even though you may not be able to change everything happening in your life all at once, you are still free to explore what it means to be present, how you can, where you are.
Let today be one of those days where you let yourself take at least one thing off of your list of things to worry about however you can. Even if you can’t remove the long list of tasks on the written to-do list, perhaps, there is a mental to-do list that is worth removing things from:
While you may not be able to take things off the list in every area of life, all at once, even taking something off your list in a small way is a valuable step. Even this small act is a way of making space so that you can find room to breathe, right here. And the more you find room to breathe right here, the more you are able to create space to be rejuvenated, as you prepare for what’s ahead.
The uncertainty of the future can be overwhelming at times because there is no way of knowing all of the details of what would happen. But what you can know is this: learning how to give energy to what’s most important today and let go of the rest is something that will surely help you for whatever lies ahead. This is a transferable skill that you can continue to develop through every phase of life.
Let today be one of those days where you let yourself take at least one thing off of your list of things to worry about. May the process of making space to breathe enable you to move through the day with a little less pressure. Remember that by practicing letting go in the present moment, you are working on a skill that you will be able to use in the future, too.
