This morning we remember, in the paraphrased words of our fave Astronomer Carl Sagan, we’re a mote of dust, suspended in a sun beam.

Sagan knew what was up (literally):

Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.
Carl Sagan

Here’s what to do while listening to this Sound Bath:

Lie down.

Inhale deep and exhale out.

Allow the words you just read to settle in.
Visualize yourself floating in space looking at the beautiful pale blue dot. 🌎

Ponder.

Breathe.

Relax.

Let the sounds you hear be your anchor to the present moment.

Don’t judge what you hear or analyze the sounds, just listen, observe and experience them. If you become restless or impatient, notice these feelings and allow them, but do not react to them.
Here we go —
