    So, so true. As it happens I, too, had made a decision to listen carefully today to what I’m thinking about.

    That’s a profoundly wise saying from ET.

      Tuning in with awareness is so helpful in maintaining balance. Don has a scan today to see if the chemo is working in reducing his tumours. Both our minds will be leaping ahead with different scenarios until we hear the results. I won’t be posting about it but will let you know. xo
      In the meantime let us both breathe deeply and take time to center ourselves beyond our thinking 💛

    Deep breaths to you today, Val.💕

    And like most of us, I have spent a lifetime trying to control the power of those negative thoughts. Always a challenge, in spite of the fact that most of what we worry about rarely comes true.

    Kate @ Did That Just Happen?

    The quote is so very true – I have to stop myself from letting my monkey brain take control! Sometimes it just needs some quiet/meditation, and sometimes a phone call to the source helps! 🙂

    True. I am often amazed when I self-analyze why I feel pain at the pit of my stomach and it is for fear of something that MAY happen, rather than anything that is real.

      Awareness is so helpful for us to make choices about how we think and respond to the world around us. Thank you Elisabeth 💛

    I completely agree with this. I lose so much time worrying about things that never happen.

      I hear you Bun…. and then just as we get over that, something else comes up to take our thoughts into the future again. Time to slow down and find our middle ground 💕

● About Me

My name is Val Boyko, a dual citizen living near Philadelphia, originally from Scotland.

This blog came to life one morning in 2013.  I woke up with these words in my mind:  “Life is a series of highs and lows. Be grateful for the highs. Be graceful in the lows. And find contentment in your Middle Ground.”

Find Your Middle Ground blog started to explore, reflect, ask deep questions, share insights about awakening, and connect with wonderful people like yourself. Thank you for being here and being such an inspiration.
