Stillness in movement. This has been my spiritual practice. 🏄♀️
Finding little moments to take in a big belly breath and chant my mantra. Today, River and I went for a walk in the park. As soon as he fell asleep, I desperately wanted to park the stroller and plop down on a bench to catch up on emails, read, write, meditate, really anything instead of worrying and focusing all of my attention on him.... but I knew if I stopped walking that he would wake up... because he always does. This ain’t my first time around the block. So instead, I tried my best to find stillness and peace in the walking. It felt weird. But I knew it was my only choice.
This has been my daily practice.
I hear my Guides, my ancestors, my God calling me. I hear them saying: “It doesn’t matter where you are or who you are with or what you are doing... just show up. We need to talk about things.” So I keep walking. And try to calm my mind. And I keep showing up. As much as I want to sit in a quiet little spot by the water, with my eyes closed all alone... it’s just not gonna happen right now. So I find my stillness at the back of a stroller in the midst of strangers walking their dogs. I listen deep and I hear my angels say “My child, you are an ocean with crashing, powerful waves... but even waves rest. We are here for you. Lean into us whenever you want. Keep walking.” 🙏🏻
If you, too, are seeking stillness and peace , I hope you can find it wherever you are. #thoughtsontheway#beherenow #trying #dailypractice#momlife
