ONE SMALL STEPAs an ending prayer for your day — a sort of prayer of Examen — notice where you were outside of your window of tolerance. Instead of shaming yourself notice, too, what can help ground you and keep you in your window of tolerance. Things like nature, moving your body, times of silence or beauty, might be some things you choose. Write down three and choose to follow them this week as life-giving gifts (not a list of "shoulds", “or else.”).
