“There will always be challenges. Moments of ease. And moments of difficulty. If we are not mindful it is easy to fall prey to despair, frustration, and fear of the future.
When I find myself worrying about things like work, finances, planning, scheduling, relationships, etc. I first ACKNOWLEDGE the feeling I’m experiencing. I feel it and allow it. Then I come back to my breath. And next I feel my physical body.
Once I am present, I then ask myself, what can I do RIGHT NOW to move forward. What can I do right now to bring peace of mind and improve the situation. Sometimes it’s something as simple as an email or phone call. Sometimes it’s making a plan or work schedule for myself and my team. Sometimes I just need to exercise. But I do not give into doubt and despair. I have permanently removed that option from the menu.”
