You will be alright

Paris / Champ de Mars / January 28, 2022

 

You are about to go into an important meeting

is your first day in your new job or in a new city

The emotions are real

The feeling of “butterflies” in the belly is present

The heart is moving fast

The hands are sweaty

The racing of the mind

 

You realize what is happening inside

The thoughts are moving fast

The “what Ifs” cross your mind

You remind yourself”

“You can control the pace”

 

You straighten your posture

You feel your breath

You notice the movements as you inhale

Your feet supported on the floor

Your back straight and tall

You exhale and let go

 

You smile

You know

It is time

And you will be alright
