What supports you in being centered? A piece of music, a special place, reflecting on your purpose, or simply taking a few deep breaths? We all have activities, words, or visualizations that bring us to center.
Resolve on your birthdate, each month, to create time for an activity out of the ordinary which centers you — calling an old friend, visiting a museum, a visit to a spa. Whatever you choose, savor the experience and appreciate that nurturing yourself is a part of being centered.
For every man the world is as fresh as it was at the first day, and as full of untold novelties for him who has the eyes to see them.
