Soothe
Frantic
Exhausted
Overwhelmed
Running on empty
This culture of rushing and hustle
Demanding everything
Offering nothing in return
Frazzled nervous systems
Carry the weight of
Too much
Too fast
Too soon
Restoration is the antidote to fragmentation
Self tending
Is not indulgent
But necessary
Relief lies in the slowing down
In the learning to feel
To sense
To listen
To what is
Attunement invites ease
Softens the edges
Reminds us that we don't have to live in a constant state of urgency or rush
Slowing down is not only a retreat
But a return
To our body
Our breath
To tend to what truly matters
