When

When thoughts get tangled, invite silence.

When the path is unclear, sharpen your vision.

When overwhelmed with worry, imagine success.

When feeling all alone, find someone that you can help.

When weary or depressed, ask your breath to buoy your spirit.

When outside forces foil your plans, reassess, regroup and carry on.

When motivation wanes, consider the tenacity that's inherent in all of life.

When emotions boil over, kill the heat, lift the lid, inhale the aroma and let it rest.

When ungrounded, feel the sun on your skin, play with water, walk barefoot in the grass ...

When an others flaw shows, share a loving smile and offer a compliment or some encouragement.

When death passes near, be grateful for life, embrace the past, then open arms and eyes to the future.

When you think you've got it all figured out, recall the tale of the 3 blind men and the elephant.

When you observe yourself thinking, acting or speaking harshly, fess up and apologize.

When victorious or successful, acknowledge all the others who made it possible.

When faith wears thin, let the fabric unravel and feel your source being.

When you don't know what you want, what you want is to know.

When an answer doesn't come, rephrase your question.

When conflict arises, step into the others' shoes.

When feeling rushed, pause and breathe.

When in err, rejoice being human.
