Movements
…So how do we cope with movement?
We start by accepting it instead of resisting it. Resistance exhausts us. Acceptance gives us room to respond…
First steps
…Small steps matter. They matter because they are sustainable. They matter because they respect where we are right now, not where we wish we already were. Taking a small step is choosing consistency over perfection…
New Start
…We are very good at talking. We talk about doing better, being better, choosing differently. We make lists, set intentions, whisper promises to ourselves in the quiet moments.
