Suggested Practice: Elemental Presence
Yin
Tension may rise, but it’s not all bad. Pause before reacting. Move, breathe, or journal to diffuse the charge. Then let your next step come from clarity—not chaos.
Inspired by a poem by Yung Pueblo, this practice helps us ground in the present moment by cultivating the qualities of the four elements. "Practice the strengths of earth... Cultivate the qualities of water... Embody the teachings of fire... Internalize the values of air."
Question for reflection: Where am I feeling activated—and how can I respond in a way that honors my body?
