What is real...
The past several days I have been feeling off. Feeling angry when I feel my boundaries pushed, when I feel like I’m being manipulated. I’ve been feeling the chaos and divisiveness of the world, feeling like we’re all being gaslighted. I’m feeling the discord and darkness and I wonder what is real. What is true? Then I start to feel fear and panic creep in.
I have been taking a 30 day yoga course from the YouTube channel Yoga with Adriene. It is focusing on the breath and called to me. It has reminded me that what is real, what is true is my breath right now. One of the days she repeats the mantra, “My breath is my anchor. My anchor is my breath.”. My breath connects me to this moment right now. The fear and panic come up when I’m not here, but worried about the future, what is going to happen? My breath centers me in the present where Christ is. In this space I can remember that I can do all things in Christ. He’s got me. Always.
So today my friend, I invite you to breathe.
Much love,
Jules ❤
