019 | Listening to Our Bodies

Original art by Martha’s Vineyard artist Carolyn Warren

I slept in today. I was awake early but still felt the pull of sleep. I could have gotten up to continue working on Miss T’s closet project. Instead I listened to my body, rolled over and slept soundly until 8:22–a gift made possible by the gift of having the house to myself for a few days.⁣

I woke up to sunlight and this calming painting by Martha’s Vineyard artist Carolyn Warren and felt as relaxed as I’ve felt in several weeks. ⁣

This morning I cultivated sanctuary by listening to my body. ⁣

What is your body telling you today?

How might you listen and cultivate sanctuary by listening to your body?⁣
