Calm

Day 7 of 21 Disrupt the Gap

Navigating intensity, calm is gift within myself, and for others. Tonight, more words feel disruptive, and my spirit desires dynamic calm presence.

So while Pandora plays, I visually wander through an afternoon of images from Kalani’s garden on the east side of Molokai Island.

I am inspired to return to a centering meditation practice, and giggle recalling greeting this bloom, a calm, powerful eye-level presence in the garden path.

I invite you to join me and Psalm 46:10 for a calm pause. Begin with a deep breath or three, then read each word, pausing at the end of every line for a few seconds.

Be still and know that I am God.
Be still and know that I am.
Be still and know.
Be still.
Be.

Peace to you, and may your beingness nurture calm in our world.

ps: I googled that I spelled Kalani correctly, and giggled again discovering Kalani means “the Heavens.” http://molokaiflowers.com/ and Kalani’s flowers—and smoothies—are a special place on the planet where to be calm comes easily.
