YEAR OF ZEN: SPRING: DAY 48

Q: Slow down and bow. How does this feel?

A: I woke up this morning feeling sick, so in many ways illness has forced me to slow down and reassess my immediate goals and expectations for the day/week. I always feel that if I tak etime to stop and breath things will pile up and I will never get unburied. The exact opposite ends up being the case, however, as slowing down (even if because of illness) reveals that I am better served moving a little more slowly and mindfully throughout my day and my life.
