A MEDITATION FOR THE MOON
Dear Moon,
Thank you for authoring our evolution, for giving us time, for regulating our spin and toil, for protecting us from the Sun's deathly brilliance, for keeping us such cheerful, steadfast company, for everything else you do for us that we've not yet discovered.

A MEDITATION FOR WHEN YOU ARE DISREGULATED

This is hard. That's step one - a quick pity party. Next, recite all the cuss words you know, then shake it off like a wet dog - literally. Intentionally hyperventilate, then smile, even if you don't feel like it, while your heart beat slows back down.

MEDITATION FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED MORE

Dear Universe,
Remind me to tell myself, I have all that I need and more, especially on days when I start thinking I don't. Remind me that to repeat this - through some miraculous mechanism I don’t pretend to understand - always makes it so.
Thanks, Eirene

A MEDITATION FOR HOLDING SPACE
Dear Universe,
Help me encircle this like a beach ball, like an invisible tree trunk, like the embrace of a vanished loved one. Help me bear this burden lightly - this weight that feels like the world on my shoulders, but is actually something heavier.
Thanks, Eirene

A MEDITATION FOR PEOPLE W/OUT TIME TO MEDITATE

Send one breath to my...
B-hole: thx for eliminating shit
Prives: thx for creating shit
Belly: thx for building me
Heart: Thx for making it sweet
Throat: thx for advocating
Skull: thx for deciding.
One more out the top of my head.
Let's do this.

A MEDITATION FOR WHEN THE AC GOES OUT IN YOUR CAR AND YOU LIVE ON THE SURFACE OF THE ACTUAL SUN. (I.E. PHOENIX).

Dear Universe, remind me that cool air is a privilege, a gift, not a right, and to choose this heat, like a sweat lodge, to find in it something sacred. Thanks, Eirene

A MEDITATION FOR WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
The universe has been extra eager to talk to me in the middle of the night since I entered the perimenopausal zone. Hmm. 🤔

A MEDITATION FOR WASHING DISHES BY HAND

If you can do it less than 3 gallons, you're besting the dishwasher. If you can do it less than 1, you're a conservation Olympian.

Sweet Universe,
Remind me that sometimes, I forget to grab a bag before I walk the dogs. Please help me give the soul whose dog took a dump the size of a subway sandwich in my yard the same benefit of the doubt. Yeah.

Thanks, Eirene

A MEDITATION FOR THE MORNING AFTER A STRANGE DREAM

Don't search up dream meanings online. Get out your journal and put on your thinking cap. What do the nouns and circumstances you saw in your dreams mean to YOU?
