Centering Solutions
Centering Is A Solution
“Meetings” happen all the time: most of the time with other people—all of the time with yourself. How you prepare for these meetings has a major effect on their outcomes. And knowing how to center yourself is the decisive factor in getting your needs met—while developing and maintaining good relationships with those you meet along the way.
Being Centered
To be centered is to feel balanced—your breath flowing smoothly, your mind and body calmly alert—adapting to the situation at hand. Centering breeds clarity, clarity summons courage, and courage leads you down the path of the right action.
Centering happens when you re-member: when you allow the various aspects of yourself—your body, mind, and intention—to naturally realign, enabling you to focus all of your capabilities on what you need, or want to achieve.
When you’re centered, what you’ve trained yourself to do—mentally and physically—will emerge spontaneously. And if you’ve remembered to train yourself well, centering provides you with the solution you need at any given moment.
