The Path to Comfort

On finding comfort even when it's hard

Mind unable to rest

full of thoughts

both good and bad

Scattered thoughts that won't slow down

No matter how elusive or how distant

No matter how unlikely it seems

know that there are ways to find comfort

To welcome it

among the noise

among the chaos

Simply close your eyes

inhale the air slowly

Notice the scent of lavender? Of warm vanilla and cardamom?

Have you found comfort already?

Ease back and feel the warmth of a hot bath

the tickle of bubbles against your body

Let the stream of a hot shower cascade down your back

comforting your body

calming your mind

Have you found comfort yet?

Among the noise?

Among the chaos?

Close your eyes and wrap your hands around a favorite mug

Feel the soothing warmth of the hot beverage it contains

Of herbal jasmine, lemon balm, and chamomile

the rich aroma of hot chocolate

Take some time

close your eyes

steal a moment of solitude

And maybe among all the noise

and among all the chaos,

you'll find the comfort you've been looking for
