Finding_Center

If the times are tumult...if the very earth is shaking beneath your feet...how will you survive? And if survival alone is not enough, how will you thrive? First, instead of automatically reacting from instinct, with a fight, flight, or freeze response, ask yourself if it is instead possible to simply slow down? Is there a space in-between that you've forgotten about? Next, if you are feeling a frenzy of energy or a deficit of energy within you, can you bring your awareness to it without identifying with it? You could try envisioning it as a ball of colored light, or whatever is intuitive for you. Finally, rather than exploding into action, or on the other hand, abandoning your body, see if you can instead draw that energy down and into your gravitational center, into stillness... Consider the possibility that it is here, at your core, that you are most balanced. Most resilient, most creative, most powerful. Most loving! Most alive!
