Take A Step Back

 It's easy and natural to become entangled in difficult situations. We so often feel accosted by life as it comes to us. But a wonderful step in the journey of releasing is to stop in your tracks before your react and take a step back. This step back is a wonderful way to gain balance, perspective, and sanity. It stops chaos from intensifying and plants us in an entirely different place. Step back physically, or emotionally and become an observer of what's going on. Look at it from a larger vista and you will discover new ways of responding as well.
