Let it Run its Course
The sauna's walls provide safety
warmth
peace
from the elements and the
noise of the outside world.
This space allows me to focus
on my breath
the sensations on my skin.
Each drop of perspiration
is trailed by my mind
following its path
like a meditation.
Let it go.
Let it come out.
Let it run on whichever path
it needs to follow to
be released.
Be patient.
Feel is direction.
Don't wipe it away but
let it travel at the speed and in the direction
it requires
to drop
and
disappear.
Sweat it Out

From "My Daily Breadth"
To consider: Will you give yourself permission to sit with your thoughts and let them
move whatever direction and pace they need?
