“Open your arms like you’re spreading your wings and say to yourself “my life is getting bigger.” Then move your hands to about an inch or so apart and mutter “that story will feel smaller.” Then turn your palms away from you and push the one inch story away/down to help it move along. Alternate with reading Wild Geese by Mary Oliver and repeat as necessary.”
