This life is tough. Ground yourself into something stable.
Something you can push against; something you can count on to be there; something strong enough to help you bear the weight life puts on your shoulders.
Bearing a heavy load is tough enough… add in an unstable floor? A ground that constantly shifts? An energy that’s unpredictable?
And you’ll constantly be topsy turvy tipping and stumbling whatever it is you’re trying to hold.
The weight will fall and make your ground even more unstable… it will crash into other people’s grounds… it might even leave you injured and unable to bear any load until healed.
Before you bear the weight life tries to put on your shoulders… yes, ground yourself into something stable.
If work is unstable, ground yourself in your home life.
If your home life is unstable, ground yourself in your work.
If both are unstable, ground yourself in yourself. And build a sacred practice of meditation, movement, and connection into your day/week that you can count on.
But one thing is for sure: Don’t try to take on more weight if you’re already off balance. Find proper footing on a ground as reliable as cement. Take on life from there.
