future activity and excitement.

into the freedom and possibility of the present.

Shift Attention To Quiet Heart Messages

When we learn to manage our emotions long enough
to stop and shift our attention to the quieter message of the heart,
we can gain a wider perspective on any situation,
often saving ourselves from hurt, frustration and pain.
