Find Sanctuary: Mending your soul.

Duke Chapel (Durham, NC)

Whether it's a chapel space, a coffee shop or a yoga mat- find your sanctuary.

Tired, fighting a cold,

Head a little heavy,

It has been a long week,

Chores need to be done,

Finances are low,

Need more sleep,

But things need to get done.

I am here. 

Distracted,

Sitting,

Breathing,

Sipping,

Thinking,

Worrying,

Chest tightens,

My vessels constrict,

Why am I here? 

My eyelids are heavy,

I take a breathe.

My lungs fill,

My chest collapses. 

I took a look around 

and I settle in.

I am here. 

And here I rest. 

My yoga studio

The coffee house chatter is loud,

But I hear music.

The choirs of angels singing.

My shoulders relax.

I can feel each and every breath.

I am falling.

Falling in a trance. 

I come to you Father,

again and again.

You are my resting place,

My sleep.
