Find a quiet spot in nature. The more submersed the better. Maybe a tree to sit under or a nice spot by the water where you can allow yourself to settle. Close your eyes and take in some slow, deep breaths. Focus on the… Continue Reading “A Moment to Pause.”
As I’ve learned how to settle my own nervous system, the modern world has started to feel even louder, faster and increasingly disconnected.
