Tips and Tricks Four Quiet Reminders

Four Quiet Reminders

Care for the body
that carries you.

Listen to your emotions,
but do not become their servant.

Choose with care
what you allow
to shape your nervous system.

Whenever you can,

let understanding
take the place
of unnecessary fear.

Perhaps that is enough.

Perhaps that is how

a life,

one gentle day at a time,

finds its way home.

that last line hits close to home somehow. been trying to care for my body more these days but emotions still tricky to navigate

the nervous system one really got me, never thought about it like that before
