When you feel the weight of the world,
Heavy and cold,
Just remember you are enough.
When expectation feels like a tsunami,
Pressure and wind pinning you to the wall and taking the breath from your words,
Just remember you control the tides.
Choose whether you will plant your feet and look it in the eye or allow it to wash over you.
When the world doesn't make sense and the softness of your heart aches from ugliness,
Injustice and cruelty around you,
Remember who you are.
Your heart holds the tenderness of the earth.
The gentle force resonates and hums to the tune of love.
Be the eye of the storm,
The calm center that stops chaos in its tracks.
Your breath is a bridge to peace.
Sink into its rhythm and let it hold you like a warm blanket.
Remember to pause.
Feel the wind move through heaviness and become light.
Draw in the steadiness of the dirt beneath your feet.
Move with the cadence of the trees to bring sense and simplicity into the self.
Choose to see the sunshine.
Let the warmth fill you up with simple truth and time.
When you seek outside yourself to feel complete,
Whole and loved,
You invite in a continual state of discontent.
Close your eyes and feel the immense power and energy within you,
Carrying the undercurrent of strength,
Fulfillment and wholeness.
Let your breath smooth over the jagged edges of the outside world.
Your world is soft,
Quiet and peaceful.
What is it you need in this moment?
Put your focus inward and find what it is that you seek.
You carry peace,
Love,
Acceptance and worthiness.
Offer those gifts to yourself now.
Find your balance between effort and surrender.
Control and let go.
Sit quietly in your power and presence.
You needn't say a word to know all you possess and have to offer yourself and the world.
When those silent words turn against you in your mind,
Just remember,
You are enough.
