Find Your Middle Ground

Haiku – embrace this moment

Embrace this moment
There is nowhere else to be
Find your Middle Ground
~

Find your Middle Ground is about stepping away from stressful days and anxious minds, and taking time to pause.

When we are mindful of the present moment and simply allow it to be, we open a door to our natural state of being – accepting, loving, peaceful, kind and content. Most of us are so distracted and moving so fast that we get caught up in the world of “doing” or worrying about what we should be doing next.
Too much doing and thinking disconnects us from our sense of “being”and who we really are.

I write about finding this place of connection, contentment and peace in the highs and lows of life. I call it our Middle Ground.

    When I deliberately connect to Mother in the Now and am mindful of my breath, yes this state is possible. Thank you, Val, for reaffirming the Truth. 🌸
