Living in a big city like you have to put in some effort to connect with nature. You don’t just walk out back and find silence like I did growing up in Yet Mother Earth is still here. She’s often forgotten amidst the flash and glitz but she’s here. Holding us, witnessing us and waiting for us with open arms.
Big cities can swallow you whole if you forget who you are. This is why rituals have been so important and empowering for me living here. Rituals are small acts performed with intention, with heart, with grit. They are my lifeline to navigate the ups and downs of life.
Here with I focus on the notes 🎶 of her flute. I could easily feel my nervous system tense up with the sounds of sirens (sound on and see what you focus on) but I don’t give the sirens my focus. No thank you.
These moments of calming our nervous systems are an incredible anchor ⚓️ that get our systems into states of relaxation and joy.
These are the things that make life feel fulfilling. Will you join me?
