Hello, dear souls. Welcome to our Cadre community time. I want to invite you into a grounding breath with me because we have no agenda. We just get to flow through this time. Whatever you need to be, whatever you have been, is enough.
Hello, dear souls. Welcome to our Cadre community time. I'm super excited to be here. I hope you are equally as excited. This is my first time connecting with you. I'm so glad that you chose to come and spend your time in this space. We want to give everyone an opportunity to arrive, and I want you to remind yourself that there is no right or wrong way to arrive. It just is right. That's very much the way life is right now. It's just an opportunity to just stop to be present. I want to invite you into a grounding breath with me because we have no agenda.
We just get to flow through this time trying to make sure that there is space so we can light our candle. I have a lighter somewhere. I did. Who knows where it is? Oh, I know where it is. Sometimes I can be overly organized. One of the things that I love about this is the color. Colors are such an important part of grounding, and I chose this particular candle because it reminded me of the blue in water. And what I love about water and what's so special about water is water becomes what it needs to be in order to navigate its environment.
So when it's hot, water warms. When it's cold, it freezes to solidify. When the terrain becomes rocky, water is still present and it moves across and finds its way through. And I think that's a really powerful thing for us to consider as we live and exist and go through everything is what does it look like to flow and realize that the condition of that flow is going to be different depending upon what you're going through and everything that's coming your way. Sometimes water is still and quiet and peaceful.
Sometimes water is cleansing. And sometimes water is powerful and forceful. And so whatever you need to be, whatever you have been, is enough. So let's take a moment. I want to invite you to close your eyes if that feels comfortable to your nervous system. When we close our eyes, it signals to the vagus nerve, one of the nerves that goes through our body and our nervous system, that we are in a moment.
