Pause That Refreshes

full of anxiety

don't know what to do

take a pause that refreshes ~ and ask

what would my soul do?

 

fear is disabling

I feel like fleeing or fighting

take a pause that refreshes ~ and ask

what would my soul do?

 

anger is so powerful

it builds up to implode or explode

take a pause that refreshes ~ and ask

what would my soul do?

 

I have a habit

that keeps repeating itself

take a pause that refreshes ~ and ask

what would my soul do?

 

My habit is still there

do I beat myself up?

take a pause that refreshes ~ and ask

what would my soul do?

 

it takes practice and compassion

to engage our soul

take a pause that refreshes ~

as we allow our soul to grow
