A Metaphor for Life

Let it rest.

What?

The meat. The key to good steaks is to let them rest.

Oh, that’s the step I forgot.

Most do.


The magic to be found here is yours. May I suggest curiosity and a playful countenance over a pen, excavating for answers. You may have heard of automatic witting? It’s where you think of your query or question, and start writing and the answer pours out.

Hold your pen loosely so the whispers can find their way on to the page.

I’ll give you something to read or consider, grab your pen and journal and let whatever wants to find its way out — out.

I’ll include suggested activities, but sometimes it’s nice to choose slow and let motion rest.

Enjoy,

Kate
