Awakening Through Parenthood

My soul feels heavy

My soul is tired 

Beyond meditation

Beyond movement

Beyond taking a nap

Beyond “me time”

I’m exhausted at a cellular level

There is no quick fix 

No amount of vibes

Or prayers

It all feels murky

So I’m going to sink to the bottom of all of this

Sort through

Process

Find rest where I can

Breathe where I can

I know I have been in a place like this before

And I came out alive

So now to continue to sink, dive, explore

And hope I don’t have to hold my breath for too long in the deep

My hope is I am able to emerge and take that first breath up 

That first inhale that made all the waiting and the holding worth it all
