Earlier this week, I'd fallen into a pretty dark state. It started when I listened, on repeat, to a fun, high-energy song about getting buried alive.

Next thing I knew, days later, my heart, wrists and joints feel like they're being squeezed and I can barely sleep because, despite calmness of mind, stress is manifesting throu✨gh my body at the thought of experiencing every possibility over infinite years... eventually, I felt as having cut myself off from the light, and reignited my faith in the positive direction of my soul/being.

A couple of months ago, I picked up my first Tarot deck. I've used it several times. Today, I asked how I might find inner peace.

I received the message to focus on life, love, creativity, people, contribution...

It helped a lot.

Now, after reading your article, I realize how I've slacked on meditating, and worse still, I haven't been spending any time outside!!

Thank you, Cristina, for the most gentle reminder. 🙏🙏✨

Take care.

Sincerely,

-G
