Softening

Daily Draw: Witchlings Deck, Meditation

Jasmine's pose speaks of centering reminding me I've been living in my head for quite a few days now, leading to a 'hardening up'. So have checked in with my calm app for a loving kindness class. As it is going to be sunny I may try Paulina's tree root meditation later. Being transported to a place of bliss might be a tall order. Just dipping a toe back into mindful practice is a start and for that reason I am grateful I drew this card. 

be softer with you.
you are a breathing thing.
a memory to someone.
a home to a life.

  1. When I've been residing in my head, sometimes the best meditation I can do is one that involves movement, like yoga or walking. Love the verse by Waheed!

  2. That's good advice and I tend to do better with the movement meditations. I love the verse too it popped up on my iPad screen when I completed my meditation on the calm app a nice bonus!

  4. Meditation. The great challenge. I went on line to read a bit of Nayyirah Waheed's poetry. Lovely. Thanks for introducing me to her through your post. Maybe I will spend some time reading some of her poetry, a different type of meditation.
