Being A Blessing with poem "At My Window", by Mark Nepo

from Balanced Mind with Julie Potiker · host Julie Potiker

Enjoy this moment of self care as Julie Potiker leads you through this guided meditation. She completes the meditation with a reading of the poem, At My Window", by Mark Nepo." At the Window, By Mark Nepo I was at the window when a fly near the latch was on its back spinning — legs furious, going nowhere. I thought to swat it but something in its struggle was too much my own. It kept spinning and began to tire. Without moving closer, I exhaled steadily, my breath a sudden wind, and the fly found its legs, rubbed its face and flew away. I continued to stare at the latch hoping that someday, the breath of something incomprehensible would right me and enable me to fly.   Get the latest on mindfulness and meditation by subscribing to Julie Potiker's YouTube channel and Facebook page at Mindful Methods for Life.
