Investigate Distractions

 

I go down to the shore in the morning

and depending on the hour the waves

are rolling in or moving out,

and I say, oh, I am miserable,

what shall —

what should I do? And the sea says

in its lovely voice:

Excuse me, I have work to do.

- Mary Oliver

Investigate distractions and mind clutter without resistance or judgment.

If negative thoughts linger and fluster, think of best case scenarios.

"Scatter joy," encourages Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Discover the work you need to do, encouraged by creativity and playfulness. 

Add humor. 

Breathe as you arrive at a sense of contentment from the cumulative effect.

"Each moment is a chance for us to make peace with the world." - Thich Nhat Hanh
