Rhythms and Ripples

6/19/2016

0 Comments

 
Once upon a time I was afraid of storms. I had been at camp, without my parents, when hurricane Bell hit the coast of Maine in 1976. For years after, when winds blew hard and rains came heavy, my body remembered the stress I experienced. The first storm after becoming a mother, it changed. I changed. I became rooted back into my safety. I grew past my fear. I KNEW in my bones that if I was afraid that my baby would be afraid and I wanted him to feel safe.

Our emotions ripple. 

My step-mother shared with me decades ago that she calmed her baby with being intentional about HER breath. As her breath was calmed and regulated, my adopted brother, born with neurological challenges due to his birth mother's drug use, also calmed and regulated. 

Our rhythms ripple.

They're watching us. Our kids are desperately looking for information to know if they are safe, if there is good and right in their world. The are looking for the ways that life WORKS. 

Breathe easy mom, they're listening. You're rippling and can choose perspectives, use your skills, and teach resources. It's safe to do TODAY, surviving whatever storms present.
