For today and every day.
“Be gentle with yourself. Be kind to yourself. You may not be perfect, but you are all you’ve got to work with. The process of becoming who you will be, begins first with the total acceptance of who you are.”
~ Bhante Henepola Gunaratana
It only takes ten minutes to feel nurtured and connected to your self. Try lying with legs up the wall, placing one hand on your belly, and the other on your heart center.
Stay here for a while. Let the breath be slow and nourishing. Allow the body, breath and gravity to bring the mind towards peace and acceptance.
Namaste

I love legs up the wall – sometimes, if I do nothing else, I’ll do legs up the wall. So nourishing, and good for us!
