Take a moment to listen and look at nature even in the city.

Today I woke up and decided to take a moment before starting my day — I pulled out my meditation pillow and sat in front of an open door with a view of the tree tops. I am not experienced in meditation although I have always wanted to learn how to “calm my mind”. I just took deep breaths in and out and listened to the trees. The anxiety within me could be felt with some of my breaths and I embraced that feeling — realizing that sometimes you have to experience it fully to release it rather than suppress it and suffer later. I am grateful for this small moment of peace and understanding. Go easy on yourself but also challenge yourself to CREATE moments like this actively. They do not just happen. ❤
