Let's begin this week centering ourselves with meditation
from Insight Timer
by Jessica Leigh
Reconnect with the fullest expression of you and your right to take up space in this world. We are often conditioned to dim our light, not speak our truth. This will guide you back to embracing and expressing who you truly are.
Next, a blog post, it's an oldie but goodie
from amymarlowmacoy.com
If you have been shamed for taking up space, you can reject that. Expand to touch every inch of your space. It is yours to fill.
If you have been punished for celebrating your gifts, you can reject that. Be proud of what you have to offer. It is yours, and yours alone.
If you have been told there is no room for you, you can reject that. Take up room. There is enough for you among those who recognize your worth and value.
Next, a podcast...
The quarantine was harrowing time for many, including myself, and what kept me going were some amazing podcasts.
Although this one has ceased broadcasting, I refer back to it often. Enjoy!
by Life & Leadership Coach Marlana Baylis

Next, our book selection for this week, a book of poems by Daniell Koepke
For anyone who needs a reminder that you deserve to take up space in the world and that you are enough. Daniell gives voice to the fear and anxiety, as well as the perseverance and strength, that has been fundamental to her own personal growth journey and the path to deeper and more meaningful self-love and acceptance.
Lastly, a classic film about taking up the space that is uniquely yours!
