silence
stretching
sun on your face
resting your eyes
putting down the phone
paying attention to your breath
taking your biggest concern off your shoulders

This culture will grind you into a pulp of nothing and then step over the ashes to replace you with another laborer the next minute. Go disrupt this. Rest.
i’m reminded almost every day both how challenging it is for me to be more intentional with my words and also how important it is to keep trying.
i’ve been feeling spiritually challenged for years now to be more careful what i choose to say to / share with others,
even those who i find trustworthy.

It’s important to dive into the nuance and the personal historical context of a feeling.
Get to the original wound in order to make the highest choice available in the moment.
i don’t know it all, not nearly.
i’m just saying, try to tell the truth and set somebody free when you can.
(“somebody” might be you.)
and the body keeps the score.
even with a penchant for clarity-seeking, i don’t always honor it.
my own body has borne the impact of unhealthy self-censorship so others won’t be overwhelmed or called to task.
