what a beautiful anthem to accepting what each mundane or magical moment brings. i love how you channel, challenge, and change all the thoughts swirling around. i think sometimes we make the mind out to be this horrible, controlling creature when it’s merely trying to do its hard-wired job to protect us. when we curate enough calm to realize that we are not our thoughts but the witness of them, we allow agency to steal the spotlight. thank you for this life-giving and light-leaning post, vanya.

The mind cries out in horror at the thought that it is not in control. Comfort the mind like you would a frightened child. Be firm that the better course for mind is devotion to your reality, and not that your reality be devoted to mind. Help the mind untangle its habits and wounds. Be the safe space your world.
