Doused

Perhaps you have heard the oh so helpful phrase, “Stop, drop, and roll” for the actions to take if one is on fire. Well, dear one, this advice can be modified a bit if and when you, in the vernacular, have your hair on fire. When thoughts run amok and you find yourself in a bit of a panic and you are not thinking straight, stop. Next, drop awareness away from the spinning mind into the core of your being. The body is not the enemy. It is the safe haven of being. Drop awareness to the belly, breathe slowly and deeply, and flow with what arises as you rest in and as spacious wholeness. Stop, drop, and flow. There. That is how to douse the flames.

You are so very loved.
