Feeling bad?
A general malaise signaling that something in our life is out of alignment with our authentic needs. Our body-mind is asking us to pay attention and make adjustments.
The unmet need
Attunement to our genuine needs; permission to honor our limits; self-compassion for our human fragility and finitude.
A question to sit with
What is my body or soul trying to tell me with this discomfort? What need have I been overriding or ignoring?
What to do right now
Sit quietly for 5 minutes and scan your body from head to toe. Notice where you feel tension, numbness, or discomfort. Ask that part: "What do you need from me right now?" Listen without judgment.
