Hello—
…and here we are on the eve of the first three day weekend of autumn.
How will you be spending this time off? Will you be hitting the sales? leaf peeping? catching a few extra zzzz's, tailgating or just chilling? For me, this weekend feels like the last pause before the rush of the holiday season kicks into gear—a Stillpoint, if you will.
So I sense I'll be diving into that pause and allowing it to wash over me as I take the time to shut down, reset and regroup.
Along those lines, this week I decided to reframe those moments when we want to know "when are we going to get 'there'?" and I considered the relationship we have to practicing something that matters to us.
"Until it Isn't" (2:16)—When we get swept away by wanting to know when something will be resolved, this mantra is a good reminder to come back to the present and just be with what is. (YouTube

"Out of Practice" (2:12)—Just how far out of practice are you with something that matters to you? Where are you on that continuum of self-care?(YouTube Link or Facebook Link)
How do these land with you? Please share your thoughts and comment on either or both pieces.

In the meantime, may you stay present with what is—until it isn't—as you reclaim the practice of something that truly matters to you.
Thanks much.
Until next time—
Cheers,
