What's True?

When life becomes overwhelming, returning to simple facts can ground and comfort us. Today we create a truths list to return to in times of turmoil. Grab that journal! Voiced by Mel Chanté. Takeaways: 1- When we begin to spiral, we can cut off an escalating sense of panic or powerlessness by reciting facts that we know to be true. 2- By reciting truths, we give ourselves a sense of control and return our attention to the present moment. 3- We can use this list of truths to center us when we’re feeling anxious, afraid, or even just to center ourselves in the middle of a busy day. --- Mantra: I am here.
