Transcript

On stillness,

Presence,

And creativity.

Creative inspiration will always come your way.

If you let your mind rest and invite a little play.

Sometimes we feel blocked when wearied with woe.

It's time to take a break,

Sit back,

And let it go.

Meditations,

Visualizations,

Mantras,

And more.

It doesn't matter what you do,

No one is keeping score.

Perhaps for you it's walking,

Running,

Swimming,

Or the surf that helps you arrest the monkey mind and connect with the earth.

Maybe you need yoga or a stroll by the sea.

Or perhaps you crave others and need great company.

The how is not important,

It's the why that matters here.

Because finding stillness and presence helps love to banish fear.

It's always hard to do when the mind is racing ahead.

So find your way to reel it in and let joy replace the dread.
