The power of the pause.

In today's fast-paced world,

It's so easy to get lost,

To lose your inner compass,

To fall for things that you truly didn't want.

But the power of the pause is a space to come back.

What do you do in the in-between?

Do you feel the need to rush to complete someone's sentence because they are talking too slow?

Do you feel the silence in your home by picking up your phone and scrolling?

If there's a commercial on TV,

Do you look for something to do?

Where can you find that power of the pause,

Resting in that stillness?

One of my teachers said,

If you can't find time for a 30-second pause,

You need to take three minutes.

So as you rest here,

Honoring that time to pause,

We will rest here together for the next minute in the stillness,

In the quietness.

Maybe you hear Mother Nature in the background.

Close your eyes.

There's nothing to do,

Nowhere to be,

But with yourself.

Placing your hand on your heart,

Thanking yourself for taking that minute just for you.

A bald eagle flew overhead during our pause,

Which to me always signals clear vision.

So showing us this is a clear vision,

It's needed.

It's time to honor the power of the pause.
