Still Body, Still Mind
In today's episode, we carve out a few minutes to be present in stillness. I find that stillness brings perspective. As we settle back into the moment it allows us to remember what’s truly important and to essentially zoom out. I invite you to take a moment to zoom out, so to speak, and find a fresh perspective. "True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found." - Eckhart Tolle. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

Leaning into Fear
We are taught to move away from fear when in reality, we must lean into our fears in order to release them. Just as a loved one or trusted friend may express their fears to us, we must step back, listen to and hold compassion for our own. Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
