Summary
Good morning, sweet friend. Take a deep breath and stay here a while. Yesterday, we found our roots. Today, I want to invite you to do something radical: I want you to befriend your body. For so many of us—especially those of us who are always "the ones in charge"—we treat our bodies like a car we're driving too fast. But your body isn't just a way to get from point A to point B.

Today's Affirmation "My body is a safe place to land." (Whisper this to yourself like a secret. Let it settle into your heart and remind you that you are your own safest harbor.) A Little Note for Your Heart You spend so much energy making sure everyone else is okay. Today, let's make sure you are okay.
