some thoughts on motherhood, marriage, learning to love my own face in the mirror, wondering about the lady in the tangerine coat in the bean aisle at the market, writing - the usual suspects.

Keep Coming Back
notice where your mind is right now...
if it's scurrying here and there, like the White Rabbit,
try gently saying something like:
worrying worrying
planning planning
thinking thinking
take a long inhale, filling up the belly
then a deep, relaxing exhale,
slowly emptying all the way out.
come back to the breath,
the dog at your feet,
the child in your arms,
the beating of your own heart,
the blue sky...
keep coming back.
