How I start the day often stays with me throughout it. When I start my morning in balance–by attending to my physical, emotional, and spiritual needs–the rest of my day is often more balanced.
How do you start your day right?
Far Away
Sometimes, balance seems far away, like a remote destination that requires hours of travel to get to.
What are your sources of strength for those times when balance seems too far away to get to?
Scales of Justice
The concept of justice is often presented as a figure holding balanced scales. And yet, our society puts a weight on one of those scales that makes true justice impossible.
How have you challenged injustice to bring our society closer to balance?
Balanced Rock
Sometimes, things are balanced precisely despite unlikely circumstances. Sometimes, that balance is the product of slow and steady forces over long periods of time.
When have you experienced an unlikely balance?
Stress
Stress in our lives pulls us out of balance. Things that trigger a stress response interfere with our ability to function properly. Being mindful of where stress is coming from can help us rebalance our lives.
