Prompts for the pause between thoughts.

For a tender morning

1. 1What is one thing I am allowed to feel today, without explaining?
2. 2Where in my body am I bracing? What would soften if I let it?
3. 3What is the smallest yes I can give myself before noon?

For becoming

1. 1What am I quietly outgrowing?
2. 2Who am I when no one is watching or measuring?
3. 3What version of me is trying to arrive right now?

For grief

1. 1What am I missing that I have not yet named?
2. 2What does the person, place, or self I lost still teach me?
3. 3How could I make more room for this today?

For rest

1. 1What am I trying to earn before I let myself stop?
2. 2What would rest look like if it did not require permission?
3. 3Where can I subtract one thing this week?
