“… slow me down. Ease the pounding of my heart… Break the tension… Teach me how to take minute vacations by slowing down to look at a flower or a cloud, to chat with a friend, to pat a dog, to read a few lines from a good book.” – 12 Step Prayer Book

If things start getting out of hand and I begin to feel stressed, upset or disconnected, I’ll remember to slow down, breath and find a way to get into the moment by appreciating the simple things around me. By slipping back into gratitude, I’ll be reminded how lucky I am, and how much ILML!
