Playful Child Saves the Day

It’s mid-June, Phoenix, Az. 7:30 a.m. 

I’ve been up for 2 hours. There’s a lot I want to accomplish today. My mind is bizzzzzy. 

I’m trying to figure out a bookkeeping situation and can’t get it to balance. Frustration. 

Do I have time to do XXXXX before I meet with a client? Racing mind. 

It’s time to do my morning stretches. 

As I do them, accompanied by a snuggling, talkative cat, I realize I’ve set an important aspect of me aside, pushed it away, ignored it. 

My Playful Child.

I welcome her in. 

My breathing relaxes. 

My mind calms. 

The cat stops talking. 

I reconnect to my Authentic Self.

My day gracefully falls into place.

Thank you, Playful Child for calling this to my attention. 

I am grateful for heeding her call. 

Appreciation fills my heart and my mind.

My body, mind, spirit is ready for the day.

The day ahead looks bright, open and inviting.
