Hi ,
This message from a hero, who moved his life to Poland to catalyze peace efforts - Brian Berman - artist for peace, fascinating sculptor and fine human!!!
in this holiday season extra patience and love is the remedy - may you be able to draw on your reserves.
And actively resource yourself - try it now...
take 3 slow, deep breaths...
Your own inner peace practise can really feed your soul and give you resources to draw on this holiday season.
It just takes a check-in with yourself - do you need a breath, water, food or perhaps to move physically - maybe a self re-assuring hug?
Take a moment especially when stressed, and then again when more serene...
be responsible for your energy and take care of you!
You are really taking care of all - we are all inter-connected:)
Practise inner peace for the goodness of all - we can give it away!
Best for good energies to us all as we navigate our light in this mayhem and grief that is the world right now.
And may you find simple moments to feel joy:)
How about a Somatic Stretch class to resource and build your inner peace capacity?
Tomorrow, Thursday Dec. 7, 7:30 edt is our next session - here is some info.
Register here for this weeks' Somatic Stretch® class.

Desiderata
This is the original text from the book where Desiderata was first published.
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexatious to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
