A Daily Message for Your Heart:

I know that life can feel like a series of 'shocks' lately. There are emails that startle us, news that shakes us, and demands that make us want to run. But I want you to remember today that you have a root that goes deeper than any storm.

You are allowed to be brave, not because you are perfect, but because you are rooted. Today, as you feel that 'cool water' of your practice, remember that you have the power to calm your own heart. You don't have to wait for the world to be quiet to feel peace. You are the mountain, sturdy and strong.
