Movement Monday: Finding Comfort & Connection in Sweet Moments

Dan Brodax Singing "Love is Our Cross to Bear," By John Gorka

It's so important in these turbulent, uncertain times to find comfort & connection in sweet moments - those fleeting moments that bring us closer to our hearts and who we are as human beings, not just humans doing.

Sharing a Moment

I shared one of these moments with my partner, Dan, yesterday, when he serenaded me on the 17th anniversary of the day we met. Our relationship has been rich with growth and learning as we do the dance of intimate connection on this life journey. There are times when we laugh so hard our sides ache. There are times we are irritated with each other. And there are times we feel the satisfaction of completing a project together. Through it all, what I cherish the most is our friendship.

Here, Dan sings John Gorka's song, "Love is Our Cross to Bear."

Action

Take a few minutes out of your day to connect with a person or an activity that nurtures you and fills you up. This is an important self care practice that is a great way to manage your personal energy by lifting your spirit. Nurturing relationships is our life blood for a vital life. Notice how you return to work with a different feeling or mindset.
