Giving space to sit with the question how am I a question that needs visiting regularly going beyond how I think I should be to how I really am giving space to what is to be giving space to what is to be enfolded in the gracious tender love of God bringing attention to your breath taking some deeper wider breaths and as you slowly and gently exhale allowing the shoulders to drop allow yourself to sink to settle to be held and supported letting go of the day so far and of what's to come receiving the grace to be present here and now knowing that the love and kindness of God is fully present towards you with compassion and acceptance and coming to the question how am I firstly asking that question of your thoughts what thoughts have been coming and going in recent days simply recall and observe these thoughts without judging,
