How safe and soothed do you feel in your mind right now?


Ask the question about your body. How safe and soothed do you feel in your body right now?

You might notice a vast difference.


Notice how the mind takes us away from the present tense and your place of safety, with its constant chatter and disappearing into the past or future, into the dramas of daily life.  


Drop into that safe space of your body in the here and now instead.



Anchor into your body - to find your refuge, safety, wellbeing.
