Good morning. Today's opening reflection is this. Breathing in, I acknowledge my weariness.

Breathing out, I give myself permission to rest and the trying. Not everything needs my maximum

effort. Is that not the truth? Well, let me ask, ever feel like you're pushing against the door that might open if you just pulled

instead? Sometimes the trying becomes the problem, the relationship you're forcing, the goal

that you're chasing so hard it keeps running away.

What if some things come easier when you stop making them so difficult?

So throughout your day, ask yourself this,

where am I trying so hard that I might be creating the very resistance I'm fighting against?

And with that, today's mantra is this.

I can try softer instead of trying harder.

Breathing in, I acknowledge my weariness.

Breathing out, I give myself permission to rest and to trying.

Not everything needs my maximum effort.

So today, let this be enough to begin. One breath, one step, one morning at a time.
