Sometimes we just need a moment to stop and breathe… and remind ourselves that by slowing down, everything begins to happen.

Welcome to this reflection for slowing down.

My name is Brittany Lynn and these words are here to support you on your own journey of beautifully awakening.

Find a comfy place to rest and gently close your eyes if that feels good for you today.

Sometimes you just need a moment to stop and breathe,

To slowly feel your breath in and be with your gentle breath out,

To take a moment and remind yourself that by slowing down everything begins to happen.

Check in with your soul and ask the deepest layers of your being,

What can I do today to slow down and truly take care of myself?

After pushing hard through most days of your life and constantly staying busy,

It can be hard to change old habits.

It can be hard to slow down and this is your reminder to trust.

Trust that slowing down won't make you fall behind.

Trust that everything that is meant for you will find you without you having to chase it down.

Trust that life is unfolding the way it's meant to.

Just keep choosing how you want to show up each day rather than forcing something to happen or trying to control all the details.

Give yourself permission to slow down,

Take care of your heart and know that everything is still happening.

Being gentle with yourself is so much more productive than getting more things done.

So show up today and smile,

Knowing that life's magic is still taking place even when you take more time to just breathe.

Thank you so much for your presence.
