Snuggle up, take out a favorite pen and paper. Spend five minutes or more with these questions. Let your hand flow freely and see what comes.

The Medicine of East asks...

What thoughts, projects or tasks are putting your rational mind in over-drive, trying to figure out, make right, or force to get done?

What deep conundrums in your life yearn to be witnessed and acknowledged (instead of solved)?

What dreams are asking for your loving awareness, even if you’re not ready for next steps yet?

Cast a soft and loving gaze over your life to see how these things might be showing up in the shadows, asking for your attention...

• Confusion about what to choose and what lies ahead

• Restlessness

• Feeling behind, not enough, or too late

• Perfectionism preventing daily tasks from getting done

How can you hold the holiness of yearning?
