Hi everybody. Welcome back to the show. Not only do we have a brand new week of practices

here on the show, but it is also the first week of March. Wow. Wow. It's month three of

26 already. Like how how did that happen? I feel like it's been a very tumultuous year already. There's been so much happening in the world, so much happening in our lives. And we are not quite ready for spring yet. We're not going to be diving into any kind of spring

cleaning or spring energies and spring will come. Okay, we have to trust that spring will come

and with it will come that feeling of rebirth and new life and energy rising again. And there is

that tendency, especially if you live in a cold, dark place, to really

rush towards spring at the end of winter. And I don't want us to do that. I want us to stay really

anchored in what this season actually is for the final weeks of winter, to stay in this very

slow and introspective place. And if you haven't been in a slow

introspective place, I want to go there. So this week, I want us to slow, way, way, way down.

Oh, even saying that, I felt this immediate resonance

inside of my body. This week, I want us to slow down, really with some reverence for the

energy of the winter season before we start running, right, before we start picking up the pace,

because we know that that's coming. It always comes. That's really what spring signifies.

We're going to feel a shift in energy, a shift in pace. So let's spend this week, this first week

of March, intentionally slowing everything down.

And I'll give you some practices throughout this week to really practice and embody that.

Ways of slowing down in our day to day, ways to get really mindful in the small actions of life,

maybe some ways to clear some things off of our plates so that come the end of this week we feel rested yeah that's the goal I think a really good one also for where we are collectively in the world

right now feeling a little bit more rested I think is going to be very, very helpful. So I hope you have a slow,

beautiful rest of this Monday. And I'll be back with another practice tomorrow.
