Dear Creators,

Today’s message started with the question of staying grounded, as in: how do we stay grounded as we go about our day? A good question that my mind started working on. What I noticed is that it led me to a consideration of balance. As we go about a day what happens is the unexpected – the good and the bad. It’s a good thing – we get surprises, spice; we get to be curious about what’s coming next because it’s fluid. Our thoughts and actions, our choices make a difference in how things unfold as we go along.

Still, we want to have a feeling of balance as we encounter events, people, challenges, the unexpected. So think about those balance points that will help you. Notice what gives you a stance of being strongly ready for whatever comes your way.

Here are some points of balance I noticed with the unbalanced contrasts on either end….

Bored…………………..Engaged…………………..Overvwhelmed

Rigid…………………..Flexible……………………Scattered

Distant…………………Approachable…………….Door-mat

Play with your own points of balance. Maybe you notice where you are feeling out of balance and this exercise could point out where you want to come from, the stance you want to hold.

Flexible,

Judy
