Balanced Mind With Julie Potiker

Allow your body to feel content and peace through this guided meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with her own poem, "Unbuckle".Unbuckle by Julie Potiker This morning as I lay in bed I heard from my left hip flexor, it had a high pitched tone, too tightly strungThen my right ankle joined the songThen my left toeI rolled onto my belly and imagined unbuckling my hips Unbuckling my ankles Dragging my arms down to my sides I unbuckled my shoulders Has anyone ever written about unbuckling the heart, I wondered? Unbuckling the heart, Letting the disappointment flow out of the chambers The sadness and grief tucked into the mitral valve might need a little scraping to flush it out The existential angst at all that is lost every day in our human familyThat blows away in places like Kentucky and the Philippines this timeNext time some other village or town will lose to nature - our blue marble in danger making itself known again and again After the heart is unbuckled, and drained into the rive
