Hello,

My name is Chris and today I'm going to read you a very short poem from Dana Foulds.

It's called Just For Now and the sounds you can hear in the background are the beautiful sounds of nature in the woods just overlooking Dublin.

So I'm in the foothills of the Dublin Mountains on a beautiful summer's day.

So the poem is called Just For Now and it's by Dana Foulds.

Just for now,

Without asking how,

Let yourself sink into stillness.

Just for now,

Lay down the weight you so patiently bear upon your shoulders.

Feel the earth receive you and the infinite expanse of sky grow even wider as your awareness reaches up to meet it.

Just for now,

Allow a wave of breath to enliven your experience.

Breathe out whatever blocks you from the truth.

Just for now,

Be boundless,

Free,

Awakened,

Energy tingling in your hands and feet.

Drink in the possibility of being who and what you really are.

So fully alive that when you open your eyes the world looks different,

Newly born and vibrant.

Just for now.

Thank you for listening.

Once again my name's being Chris and I apologize for the quality of the recording but I wanted to share the lovely sounds of the forest and as you can hear there's mountain bikers now in the background as well just to show its authenticity.

Have a lovely day.

Thank you.
