So challenging to regulate your nervous system when there is a daily onslaught of overwhelming external stressors in the world. Some days it's like trying to find our personal balance while walking a tightrope between the tension of the opposites!
Man, is that ever true. I was thinking about this after I posted this piece and took a walk outside. It’s not work that we can do all day every day. It’s going to be messy and we’re going to screw it up and there will be times where life is such a shitshow we can’t even remember what we’re supposed to be doing. But the practice is to keep coming back to it, just like we keep doing, getting back up on that damn tightrope!
