Sometimes I find myself trying to get water from a dry well and then cursing the well. In the moment, it doesn’t occur to me to find a new source of abundance elsewhere. And even when it does occur to me, it seems impossible to know where to find it.
But sometimes, abundance doesn’t come from one particular source. Sometimes it’s found in movement. Just the act of moving my body from
the space I’m in to a new space gets things flowing.
Doesn’t even matter for how long or where—an hour or permanently, across the house or across the globe. Knowing that we can give ourselves the gift of abundance just by moving our bodies can keep us from feeling hopelessly stuck and longing for something more.
Of course, getting up and taking ourselves somewhere new, even if it’s just across our house, can be extremely challenging for some of us. But whenever I pry myself away from the dry wells in my life, I never regret it.
