Summer craziness and on top of all of that Mercury is retrograde. Okay, astrology isn't for everyone, but this little condition does remind me to slow down and let go of the frustration of not getting everything completed right this minute.
If I hadn't spent so many years with my ex who was an astrologer, I wouldn't spend so much time thinking about the stars. It does help to put the glitches and confusion of daily life off on some other condition than my lack of mindfulness.
And there's the real issue - staying focused on the present, doing one task at a time and reminding myself to take a deep breath before I make a decision are the actions I must practice.
It's so hard to let go of all those issues over which I have NO influence. So the real work is to remind myself of Radical Acceptance - change the things I can, let go of those things I cannot change and recognize the difference between the two.
Breath.
