Befriend the Mind

Today is for you.

Step 1: Pause to Acknowledge
Begin with honesty. Which could be asking a lot.
Sit quietly — no distractions, no demands — and ask yourself:
What am I carrying today?
Not to fix it, but to be with it.
Emotional intelligence starts here: in the space between noticing and reacting.
Let your breath be your anchor, and your awareness, your guide.

Step 2: Create a Container for Compassion
This day is sacred. Treat it with reverence and respect.
Turn your phone off. Light a candle. Make tea - remember tea? Not espresso.
Give yourself the gift of R E L A X I N G — reading, meditating, stretching, or simply resting.
This is not about doing nothing. It’s about doing everything with intention and love for you and your experience.

Step 3: Reconnect to Your Inner Voice
When your body is calm and your mind is clear, listen.
Write. Breathe. Ask:
What do I need today?
Let your answers come to you — not from pressure, but from presence.
Trust that your wisdom knows the way.

Today is for your. You could change directions today, simply by making tuning in with yourself a top priority.
