Day 2... a mantra

LESS

is

more

As the days get shorter and the darkness sneaks in earlier with each day,

beneath all those leaves, so many leaves, the foundation appears.

What was once hidden from our view,

is now exposed yet dormant, vulnerable yet safe.

It is here in the woods that stillness teaches us the way.

Less is more, letting go of the old, resting and recharging, preparing to emerge yet again.

Daily peace tip #2

Be intentional about creating space for peace. Identify a time and/or place you’d welcome stillness into your day. Perhaps you’d like to do this in the early morning while the house is quiet, or the evening when the daylight slowly slips away, or maybe it’s taking some time during the day to pause at your desk or on a park bench.

Be like the trees, less is more. Let go of something from your list of daily expectations.

What will you let go of for the next 21 days to allow you time to make space for peace?
