Well, hello there. My name is Morgan Harper-Nichols. I'm an artist and a writer, and this is a space where I share words that I hope can make a

0:56.3

little room for you to slow down and take a few deep breaths as you prepare for whatever lies ahead.

1:03.5

Thanks for being here today. And now on to today's episode.

1:18.3

The energy you have been giving to thoughts about the future is energy you need for right now.

2:29.1

The time you have been giving to trying to sort through things in the past is time you could be spending

2:36.5

in this moment that lies before you. Be present to this moment and let it surprise you with just

2:45.8

how beautiful this day can be beyond the boundaries of your worries. Dare to let yourself just be here.
