Its' been a while, but CRM Minutes are back! This is your invitation to sink in a little longer into your wellness through the 6th CRM skill-Shift and Stay. When you find those moments of getting back into your wellness, stay there for a while. Linger in the peace for as long as you are able.

“Feelings do not happen only in the brain. They happen in the feet, the hands, the shoulders, the skin, kicking up sparks in the dark interior of the body before they ever make it to the resolution center in the brain.”
-Barbara Brown Taylor, Learning to Walk in the Dark

This week we are focusing on gestures of joy! Our bodies express joy through dancing, cheering, singing, clapping, or even just a small or light in our faces. This joy is contagious, and if the world needs anything, it’s joy! Let’s share some joy today by moving our bodies in some joyful gestures!

Happy Monday! This week is a reminder we can use gestures to bring about comfort for ourselves and others. This could be putting a hand over our heart, giving a hug, or squeezing a hand…This quote from Leo Buscaglia sums up well how important our small gestures are ❤️

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.” Leo Buscaglia

New month, new skill! This month we will focus on gestures and spontaneous movements that can help get us back into/widen our Resiliency Zone! These can be simple, and it starts by noticing those movements our body does already to help us feel calm, confident, joyful, or express other emotions. Then we can call them to mind as needed for ourselves or collectively! Check out the comments for one of my favorite gesture videos that inspired me a few months ago 😀

Our final April CRM Minute! This week is a reminder that we have choices that we can make for ourselves to change our perspective, bring us to the present, and ride out the waves coming our way. Make a choice-change your environment, dance, sing-to bring some light to your day. And better yet-connect with others while you do these! A small choice of change can make a huge impact!
