What is alive right now?

I absolutely love this question. There’s usually so much going on with me and at times I find it challenging to ground myself. When I ask myself this question it shows me what’s present for me and what I’m working with in this moment.

Asking myself this question throughout the day brings awareness to how I work and what shifts in me as the day goes on. I experience many feelings, emotions, sensations, thoughts, energy levels throughout the day. At times this can feel overwhelming. Really it’s just part of the package of who I am.

So what is alive for me right now?

• I’m sitting in what was a sunny and warm spot a minute ago and now is cloudy and cool

• There are many people walking by - shopping, chatting, going somewhere and also going no where

• I feel tightness in my jaw, neck, and upper back and remnants of a headache - all of which I woke up with this morning

• The vision through my left eye is blurry and when this happens, I typically feel exhausted, as my eyes are constantly trying to adjust - There is no medication or prescription that can change this for me right now. It’s a daily reality I live with

• I feel grateful for everything in my life right now

• I feel a playful energy about me paired with a ‘don’t fuck with me’ energy which is an interesting combo

• I have a couple big projects brewing that are on my mind, along with an upcoming trip to visit family in Toronto, possibly a return to work date in my near future

• I feel the capability of taking more full breaths in my body which feels so spacious

Thank you for tuning in. With so much love, E.
