I was doing an interview today and it was with a gentleman who is in the messy middle. He's pouring his heart and soul into a new venture. He knows nothing is guaranteed, but he believes that things will work out for good.  And, in the process, he's had moments in which his faith has been shaken.  What keeps him from running for the hills is coming back, over and over, to his central 'why'.  

It reminded me that this is the practice. We continually come back home to ourselves, to what matters to us, and to the stuff that is unmovable even when we feel overwhelmed.  That way we can let love creep towards the tender spots that feel afraid, exposed, or vulnerable.

In this guided meditation we work with a gentle safety meditation reminding ourselves that here, now, we are in fact held by gravity, with breath in our lungs. No matter what happens a minute from now, in this moment we are safe and held.

Remember, these offerings are simply that. If you are in a moment of crisis please tap into the resources available near you. One of the best websites to find resources is NAMI.org 

You are never alone.
