Being More

“When we intentionally breathe, we find ourselves… As we breathe we can

Become quiet enough to listen and be present to life itself.”

– Margaret Kornfeld excerpt from Women at the Well, Meditations on Healing and Wholeness

I have lived the majority of my life being ‘busy’, doing. Being better, striving for more.

Always feeling I had to be more, do more – better mother, better partner,

better employee, better me. Never making the grade.

 Then the epiphany.

I could be enough as I am. My flaws, my inabilities, my sadness.

Shadow work took me to the depths of hell and burned my soul, birthing enough.

Acceptance, surrender, self-love, tenderness, forgiveness and peace.

Just quiet breath. ™
