Grounding + Becoming
A Soulspace Wisdom Cross-Pollination
Listen for what is already in you, the seed within reaching toward sunlight
What I need for the terrain ahead seems to be mysteriously sprinkled around me days, weeks, months, or even years before I need it. There is an inexplicable resonance—a knowing that doesn’t conform to my linear timeline and context.

Practices draw me back to the center. I return. I drink deeply. I remember.
There is spaciousness inside to keep going.
Follow what draws you.
Notice what stirs.

Teachers + Thresholds

Sunrise/Sunset: A Practice for Awakening a Weary Soul
When you attend to the way the dawn comes, you learn how light can coax the dark. Quietly before you is the mystery of a new dawn, the new day. —John O’Donohue
