moonwork mini: waning crescent 🌘

notice your body. notice an internal sensation or external sensory perception that feels good, pleasurable, nice, or simply okay, if feeling good is not available.

let your body complete the prompt: i want...

then, i really want...

then, i really, really want...

now notice what is different in your body. notice a specific sensation or phenomenon of your embodied experience right now. map its size, shape, colour, texture, depth––and its edges. edges may be defined or porous, consistent or variated.

hold or mirror the edges of this thing with your hands. hold at its current size/shape, no bigger, no smaller.

stay with this as long as you/r body would like.
then, widen your hands by a millimetre, or a few––not a lot, just a little more space.

now notice what is different in your body. stay with the expansion or return to original size/shape, as you/r body prefer/s.

let this practice go.

walk it out / take some breaths / shake it off
