Call yourself back...

Read this when you feel your energy is leaking or draining, when you feel the compulsion to do more for others than you are doing for yourself, when you notice you are hollow, empty yet unable to refresh.

Call yourself back to your breath, to your deep inhale, so full, that the exhale becomes the clear next step. And it never stops there, at the end of the exhale the abundant air hugs you and you are ready to inhale again.
You are worth your own care. You are worth your own attention and love. You are enough and you are worthy.

Call yourself back from

I call myself back from……... when my needs were not met. When the food ran dry and warmth turned cold. When I turned receiving into giving before I was ever full.

I call myself back from…….. when my reaching arm fell short of its grasp.When I gave up on my longings, because unfulfilled longing was a grief too great to bear, and needs too high a price.

I call myself back to the flow where I receive so abundantly that the giving is a relief because more is always to come. The balance as my inhale and exhale become one.
