Move Forward Slowly

Emerging from darkness is like waking up after a deep sleep. It can be a little disorienting. Do not feel pressured to do anything right now. Just relax into this state of being.  Explore the many ways you can simply be. Don’t try to figure out next steps or a path forward. Simply relax into…
